Raise your hand

If you are a SUCKA like me and fall for crap to buy off today often?
If so? What kind of crap have ya gotten and did it work like the commercial (aka- As seen on TV) products claim?

Re: Raise your hand

oxy clean. Although you can buy that in the stores now. I was okay. it took out some stains but certinely not all the commercials made it seem like it could. I would like to try that Shammie thing and maybe proactive. I have moderate Pms pimples and I would love to see what it could do but I just don't want to admit that at my age acne could suddenly be a problemChat Icon

I tried that stuff the Australian lady made to remove hair from your legs, face, whatever. She named it after her daughter, and it wasn't supposed to hurt like waxing. Right....my shins were bruised badly for about a week.

This is it: Nad's Gel Hair remover kit Chat Icon

DH and I weren't overly impressed with the Perfect Pancake. The pancake was so big and you could only make one at a time

I want that device that you slide the vegetables over and it slices them. It seems to work and it would save me so much time, and I hate cuting veggies. Anyone have this?

I wish I could remember the name. Something like Nads or Nars. It was in a green and white container.




Chat Icon Nads- Hold the skin taught and pull- Yeah I pulled, and it hurt like a mother and not one hair was removed.


I am a sucker I bought:

the holder for the hair dryer, dont remember its name, but by the time I positioned my head in the right spot for it to work, my hair was dry.

Magic bullet- I think it works well, but I dont use their recipes

Ovglove- glorified pot holder

betty crocker bake and fill- best of luck making an ice cream cake, and if you do manage to, try storing it without it getting yucky

the thing to fold clothes- the clothes looked awesome, but it took me over an hour to fold like 10 shirts


who doesnt have a george foreman grill?

cant remember all of the others, I have bought a ton of em

Re: Raise your hand

The tobi- DH is eyeballing that one. I am interested to see if anyone has gotten it yet.

Dh and I use the flip fold all the time for our t-shirts. I usually get all of our t's done in 5 minutes, to me it makes folding go quick and I love how the shirts fit in our drawers.

DH uses the magic bullet- Just last week he was making shakes and then moved on to orange julius'

This made me Chat Icon !!!

My mom seems to always buy me these things..

I have the meatball maker..dont bother, what a mess!!! An ice cream scoop works better!

I have the ear thing thats supposed to magnify sound...eh.

I have the foldable collander..that I LOVE!

I used to have the shirt folding thing but I always forgot to use it and I just threw it out, although it worked well.

I am sure I have more, but I cant think of them right now.

Re: Raise your hand

Im a sucka too

i bought the one touch can openedChat Icon I think it worked twice..then actually ate the side of a can and got stuck...it and the can went to the garbage.

Oxy clean..it works but not great

I bought a california car duster...now that thing is the greatest invention...just cant get wet and cleans the dirt and dust off your car, only problem is you have to use iit constantly or it doesnt get all the dirt off

Re: Raise your hand

We got the carrying straps that you put under large items and lift with your forearms. DW tried to help me, but it didn't seem to work for her. It worked exactly like the commercial said for me, though.

I'm also looking at the putty/epoxy stuff. That looks pretty handy.
