I had to throw them away and purchase new ones
Did you throw them away because they were giving you trouble?
They were giving me trouble and I was not satisfied with them
If something you own is only giving you trouble and not helping you, it is acceptable to throw it away. It is better to trow something away rather than be miserable using it.
I got them for a reason but it just sucks they didn't work like they should have.
I hope if you find a new product to try you can keep the receipt. If it doesn't work you can return it for a refund next time.
