Yep! That's what people want most. They want some miracle product that will shave all the fat off their bodies. Or they want some magical kitchen product that will shave off all the time they need to spend in the kitchen. Bonus points if they talk about how much healthier it is and will cause that aforementioned fat to just fade away, too.
Your Top 5 Infomercial FAILS are hilarious! I hope everyone watches this 4 minute video. It will make them smile! Everyone needs to see how products can "go wrong"--especially ladders! And don't forget the guy with the sword! If you need to shake your head in disbelief, this is the video to watch!
You know, as much as we may hate infomercials, a lot of those products we end up buying or seeing in stores at some point. For example, most of that stuff labled "as seen on tv", where do you think some of that game from?
Pet hair removal? WHAT?! I should totally get that, my cats are shedding like crazy right now. It doesn't help that they have decided the washer and dryer, which are both white, are a great place to be almost all of the time. The shake weight is borderline pornography, I totally agree.
I can't really understand why you can't use a blanket, an ordinary blanket to warm yourself. You can't really go out like that and if you are inside the house, there is no reason not to have a blanket. The idea is fine, but it is not really that much of a new product, if you ask me.
What's kind of genius and kind of sad about it is that they created a market where there was literally zero demand. A few of my mother's coworkers have snuggies. They didn't buy them for themselves (because, really, what thinking person goes out and buys a snuggie for him or herself?) but they got them as gifts and now swear they can't live without them.
Just about all of them are lame and boring. I usually end up changing the channel to find some other programming to kill time until my original show comes back on.
My daughter loved them too at that age!! And she completely believed all the claims. I think she memorized some of the ones for oldies music collections.
I agree, they are ridiculous. But even knowing that I still find myself wanting to order from them. I don't know what my problem is. Sunday morning infomercials are my weakness. I think I need and will use everything that I see.
