As Seen on TV

To not hijack The Snuggie thread, we need one to discuss all the ridiculous stuff sold on tv.

While watching a DVRd episode of the new Rock of Love on a tour bus, I saw a commercial for Easy Curves. I would not look at it at work.

www.easycurves.com

It reminds me of junior high sleep overs and "I must, I must I must increase my bust"

Here's another favorite: Bumpits

http://www.bighappiehair.com/

I'd totally get one to give myself Big Love compound hair.

I really want the Strap Perfect Bra Clips: https://www.strapperfect.com/flare/next?tag=ED|SM|GO|GN I have so many shirts that I've had to go buy a new bra for, and they would only work with that one bra.

I had to look at that and then the website for a full minute before I realized it wasn't called Big Apple hair. I was trying to figure out what the hell hairstyle NYC was famous for.

I've ordered some - I'll let you know how they work. It takes 2 - 6 weeks (wtf?) for delivery, and ordering them on phone is a PAIN. They keep asking you if you want some wedding white ones, or fashion colours, or who knows whatall. I got them, thinking I can take 3 (you only wear one bra at a time) and give the other 6 to my two daughters.

I'm tired of having to tug at a strap while lecturing.

The best "As Seen on TV" product is the Ped Egg!!! I LOVE this product. It really is nothing more than a micrograter like I have for the kitchen, but for people with lots of dead skin build up on their heels, this is a miracle! Beware...use the product on dry skin only (if you soak first, it won't work) and put a paper towel on the floor (you will make a mountain of dead skin and the contraption does NOT catch it all as the makers imply!)

There are "As Seen on TV" stores in malls; and I know CVS has some of the smaller items.

I totally want the Bumpits and Strap-perfect, but I definitely want Smooth Away.

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)

I did something wrong, then, because I looked like my feets had been mauled by lions afterwards! Guess I didn't have enough callouses?

Anyhow, I do NOT recommend using this for the first time just prior to vacation.

I love my pink PedEgg. And yes, you have to do it right over a trash can.

My husband and I wondered if that thing really worked!

Yes, the PedEgg does work and it is DA' BOMB. Ditto about putting a paper towel underneath your feet because some will fall out of the egg. But other than that, no complaints here!

More As Seen on TV products here: http://www.greekchat.com/gcforums/sh...ad.php?t=85576 (it also includes a hijack by the Queen of the Banned)

I have yet to get a GF grill and the Food Saver. Now that the Boy and I are eating in more often, they'll be very handy to have and hopefully they'll help us save money.

We use our GF two or three times a week. It's nice if you live in an apartment, want to grill, but don't have the outdoor space. It doesn't taste like grilled food though, even if you don't like charcoal and use gas or propane instead.

My cat HATES the PediPaws I bought for her at CVS. But then again, she's a completely spoiled psycho.

I'd like to try the Smooth Away and the Strap-perfect someday, but that would require me to have extra cash on hand to fritter away.\

And GF grills are awesome for making grilled cheese sandwiches!

I've found myself watching that commercial a few times. I'm interested to hear SWTXBelle's review.
