Have you ever bought a product off of an infomercial, and if so, which one/s?

Never.

I think I would kill myself before buying something off an informercial.

Nope.

I don't think so

If you bought a Ginsu knife you could then kill yourself with it. Then there is always suicide by Bamboo Steamer which sounds slow but ........painful

A Knife set - love the knives....hate the so-called freebies that you get with it that end up costing you an arm and a leg.

Keep these away from Pomeranian!

Do they still sell Ginsu knives on tv?

no, but i wish i had. some of the stuff they sell is really neat, although i hear most of it doesnt actually work. i kinda want one of those little food processor things where you can tap it three times and it will shred cement.... not that i'd do that, but it still sounds cool - fresh salsa whenever you want!!! how much better can it get????

Are you suggesting I'm old?
*hands on hips*

Age aint nothing but a number.

"In Japan, the hand can be used as a guillotine!"

No, never. None of these has ever had anything to do with me or my eclectic tastes. However, once in a while I would watch some of those music oldies infomercials -- the top hits of various decades you could buy on multiple CDs that used to be available only as 45 or 78 RPMs or LPs, that were only available by mail and not in music stores. I especially liked to hear some of the songs from the 50s.

No, I wouldn't watch all of an infomercial, and I'd never buy a product because of one.

Yes, I bought the Ronco Dehydrator.
I never use it.

Have you tried it? Was it a good product?

I've boght:
1) Tap Teaser (hair comb)
2) Tae Bo
3) Ab Wheel

But not on a tomato!!!!!!!!!

I don't think that I've even watched one for more than a couple of minutes, if that.

*splat*

I've never bought anything off an infomercial. I thought about it a couple times though.

A few, but I choose not to disclose the info.

No- but my bf ordered that Focus Factor thing, and they were only supposed to take out 23.00$ for shipping.... they took out over 300.00$ which then caused us to be overdrawn. A lesson learned I told him. And the bank went after them- we got the money back, minus fees.

*blushes*
Yes! The Miracle Blade from Chef Tony!!
My husband and I would see those damned commercials EVERY weekend, and I really wanted them, so finally Mike just picked up the phone and ordered them.
They do work really good, but the scissors broke, I can still use them, just part of the plastic coating stuff broke off.

Hey, girl! Haven't see you around in a long time! How are you?

What knife set? Was it "Chef Tony's"?

I've never bought.

Nope, not from an infomercial. I think I once called a number advertised on TV to order a CD though.

Miracle Blade.

Yeah, that's it... Chef Tony's "Miracle Blade".
Do you like them?

I love the knives - but ordering them taught me NOT to order anything again from an infomercial.

Yes, some CD's.

I wonder if your family could then sue the Ginsu Co. for not putting a warning on there product. ie... may result in death.

Do not use this knife while sleeping.

I hear ya! Me too!!

Good idea!! Keep away from children, do not use while under the influence of alcohol or other mind altering substances...

No I have not

Don't think so..

I have bought things that were on infomercials.. but I bought them at the store with the little "as seen on tv" sticker.

I got some Ginzu's at the dollar store about 5 years ago.. seriously I still use them too.

It was the Fuzuoku wasn't it??

Do you know that thing actually used to be called the Fuk-u-ok-u?? They changed it for some strange reason

hehehehehehe Do you cut aluminum cans in half with them?

You can cut anything with them! They're Ginzu's.

My favorite use for them is to open plastic packages... You can saw things open with them.

What the hey is the fuzuoku???

It's this little finger massager.. that was marketed at first for massaging your temples, neck, etc... and it was originally called the FUK-U-OK-U.. they changed it to Fuzuoku.. and now you can find them being sold as a sex toy..

pilates

Never

No. My sister's bought a juicer, but it's not the same as the one on the infomercial.
