When I was in MS/HS they sold something similar at like Walgreen & such, and it worked great. Maybe i'll wait to see if Walgreens gets it, cause they sell a lot of "As seen on TV" stuff (like the pedi-cure, the green bags, sham-wows, etc)

That's interesting. It's hard to believe that it really works. If it does, I'd be interested. Lol--stuff like this is made for people like us.:o

I was seriously thinking about ordering this, but then I got to thinking about the wear on the bra...As expensive as bras are, it might just be better to keep my strapless handy:cool:

I'm getting them to keep my straps from slipping - I don't really have much in the way of fashion-forward tops which will require different strap configurations. But I'll report back on what my far cooler daughters think.

The ones I used to use (I can't even remember the name) did work very well. I don't know about the whole "it exfoliates your legs and leaves them smooth" but it got the hair off.

The only problem I had was the fact that I have REALLY dry legs, so the pads would wear out more quickly b/c of all the dry skin it had to slosh off (lol).

I have sensitive skin and tried to use something like this a while back. I had a rash for days. The thing I got was just a strip of really fine sandpaper.

Me too. The hair comes off, but it's because you SANDED IT AWAY.

Double post, but does anyone own the Sham-Wow (the towels that are supposed to be super absorbent). I keep seeing the commercial, and i'm curious to know if they are really that good.

Really? Yeah I can see how that can happen.

I have a friend who has them, and she loves it. Walgreens sells it (well i know my Walgreens has it) and it's cheaper than the infomercial.

Saw them on display of the window at Bed Bath and Beyond tonight. I swear they have everything that is seen on tv, except the damn hair bumps!

I highly recommend the green bags for produce. They truly do extend the life of your fruits and vegetables, especially bananas. I love bananas but I usually have to buy a couple that are ripe, a couple that are half ripe and a couple that are green to get me through a whole week. The green bags are great for lettuce too. I immediately transfer the bagged salad I buy into those and it stays good much longer! I thought they were pricey but my neighbor gave me one to try and I was sold. I throw out so much less produce now that I think they pay for themselves.

So Walgreen did NOT have Smooth Away :( bummer.

They did have:
Debbie Meyer's Green Bags
Debbie Meyer's Bread Bags
ShamWOW
The Perfect Pushup
The Iron Gym
Tweeze
Buxton Organizer
One Touch can Opener
Pasta N' More
Bendaroos
Pedi Paws
some stuff from Billy Mays that I can't remember
this hearing aid-type thing that amplifies sound


and a few other things that I can't remember at the moment.

According to KFVS12 News's Does it work Wednesday (tests all kinds of as seen on tv stuff,) the bumpit doesn't work well with fine hair.

Here's a link to their website, they grade everything pretty hard and there are many products listed.

A girl that I coach has the bra strap contraption and says that if you move too much it tends to either flip or scratch your back. It also will tend to ride up one side and make your straps uneven.

I just got back from bed, Bath and Beyond. They have the perfect straps (and most of the other As Seen on TV items) on sale there for about $9.

Perfect Straps
 
I KNEW the minute I ordered them they would should up in stores! Hope y'all appreciate my throwing myself on the grenade for you!:p
