Time and Money Down the Drain: DIY Projects You'll Want to Avoid

Estimated New Cost: $10–20*; Estimated DIY Cost: $15* The cost of wall-mounted basketball hoops isn't too high; less expensive ones range from $10 to $20. In this instance, someone decided to use the restroom rather than the store to save themselves a trip.

Basket Ball Poop (imgur.com) A new hoop is on the wall after a half-hour and a lot of unscrewing.

The sound of total disappointment is the only thing that is slamming doors here.
