If you ever thought about maybe buying a product from one of those info commercials on tv, you know, the device many of us say we don't watch, I found this pretty interesting. Personally I don't trust them, the payment part more than the product but maybe I'm just being too paranoid.

Now this could be a long thread!

This was one our past *stupid* purchases. What a mess!! And what, exactly, was the point???

Funny, now that we're vegetarians, to look back on such a silly purchase. I think we paid about $20 for the dumb thing.

I think we've all been down that road. Those darn commercials actually make you wonder how you could live without the handy little doodad. Garage sale anyone?

You can go to the "As Seen On TV" store and buy many of the things directly...if there is one near you.

I got that Popiel Pocket Fisherman a long time ago. It worked fairly well.

I have a friend who loves that rotating grill thing.
