I love infomercials. The cheesier the better. Sometimes they even suck me in with their amazing products. But I would never call in and order anything from these TV ads because I just don't trust them and their "special offers". I don't want them to get my information and start sending me mounds of junk mail and calling to sell me more because I succumbed to their tricks once.
However, the world of As Seen on TV products has opened up to me now that they are selling these items in stores (especially Target, my favorite!) And now, thanks to Bones, I have received several of these amazing products for my birthday! I am the proud owner of a Ped Egg, Smooth Away, a pink Snuggie (Snuggie donated some monies to breast cancer research for that one) and, as featured in one of the all-time best infomercials ever, a Magic Bullet! (Yesterday I saw an infomercial for the Magic Bullet's new competition, the Ninja - you must say its name in a whisper in reverence for it's mythical powers. They kept referring to the Magic Bullet as making only "doll-size portions" compared to the larger capacity Ninja and going on and on about the Ninja's ability to turn ice into snow - which is very similar to ground up ice...)
I will be testing all of these items to determine if they really live up to their infomercial claims. Thanks for the hours of fun, Bones!
I'm not sure but the company I work for tends to do a lot of work with these companies that do infomercials: Little Giant Ladders, WORX, Rockwell Tools, Rug Doctor, Bosley and just up Brilliant Frames. Except for the frames one, these aren't half bad. I enjoy my ladder.
