As seen on TV
Ok admit it...what "As seen on TV' products do you own? Did you buy them from the infomercial or in the store? Do you use the product on a regular basis? Was it worth the money or a complete waste?
Re: As seen on TV
I have several, but I can't think of what they are! I totally own a Snuggie, and I love it.
I bought that toothpaste dispenser thing, but it was a JOKE. It wasn't easy to use and it gave you such a teeny tiny amount of toothpaste.
I usually purchase my stuff from the store, usually Walgreen's.

Aqua Globes! I got them for MIL and my mom, too. They LOVE them. Both are avid plant-owners. Mine look pretty in their pots when the plants around them die.
I got them at the "ASoTV" store in Woodland Mall around Christmas time last year.

The furminator which i think works wonders on my short thick hair chihuahua but not the short, wiry hair chihuhua.
I also bought that booty pop underwear for my sil's bachelorette party that we had to bring a pair of undies to for a game. Can't tell you if that works.
I can't think of anything else right now though. I'm sure there are more!
I bought an AB thing like 8 years ago...it didn't work and because of a class action suit I got my money back.
I also have the Magic Bullet food thing. It was probably purchased at Kohls.
I should buy those aqua globes. I suck at remembering to water the plants.
We have the Mrs. Meyer produce bags (I think that is the name of them). We always forget that we have them.
A friend of mine bought the boob enchancher pills one time. I couldn't believe she was naive to do that. She kept saying that there was a 30 day money back guarantee, but in the directions it said that you must you the product for 60 days before you would see a difference (or something like that). So basically, people would wait the 60 days, thinking it wouldn't work until then, but it would be too late for a refund.
Haha! Lame.
Wasn't there a big fiasco with AOL in the early 2000's when they were offering 1000 hours free, but they had to be used within the same month? Problem is, even months that contain 31 days only = 744 hours, so people were mad they didn't get to use all their free hours.

The Magic Bullet this is awesome. We got one at Kohls and it was worth the purchase.
Oh yeah, we also have some Space Bags that I got at the Container Store last time we were in ATL. Our stuff barely fit in the suitcases *with* them; I can't imagine what we would've done without. I didn't feel that they sucked AS much air out of our things as the commercials show, but then again I didn't use the ones with a vacuum-seal hole, either. Just the ones you roll up and smush out.

Is the perfect brownie pan the one that makes all edge pieces and looks like a maze? IF so, we got my Dad that (from Amazon) for his b-day last year. HUGE hit.

I don't think it looks like a maze... but I think you are right. I think it is funny because I like the edge pieces the least!
I can't think of anything from TV that we own.
That said, my husband has been wanting a Magic Bullet since he saw an infomercial about it a couple of years ago. Why? It's not like he cooks or anything. He just thinks it looks fun to chop stuff, I guess. He's a total sucker for advertising campaigns! I totally make fun of him for it.
I actually don't have any.
There are some things that look very interesting though!
I have heard great things about the Magic Bullet. I could go for one of those
We have Snuggies, but don't know where they came from. They were Christmas gifts, I know you're jealous.
I also have the Magic Bullet, also a gift, I think it came from Costco. LOVE it. I make a morning smoothie to-go for breakfast, hummus, all sorts of things. It isn't as awesome as a food processor or blender, but it was definitely a winner.
I have one of the chopper things but it is Pampered Chef rather than the SlapChop or whatever the TV version was. The PC version works quite well but is a pain to clean.
I have a snuggie type thing that my mom got me for Christmas, but it definitely isn't snuggie brand.
I do have SpaceBags from Meijer. I'm not entirely convinced they are that helpful because while there's less air in my clothes, I also can't move them around to fit into tiny empty corners of my suitcase. But I do use them and have found them helpful for separating outfits I might need for different legs of trips.
I have the bump it for my hair.
Oh, yes! I have those, too. I don't use them very often, though.

I was the only grandkid that took an artifical arrangement from my grandma's funeral.
I didn't want to forget to water it, then feel bad that my grandma's plant died.
They come in 2- or 3-packs. The 2 are larger, and the box with 3 are smaller, which is what I got the moms. They seem less top-heavy (for good reason, lol) and are just as pretty.
