Just curious, how many here buy *stuff* off the tv, ya know..those "But WAIT..there's MORE" type commercials? If a person bought a 1/4 of what they sell, you would have to have a 2200 sq ft kitchen to PUT all that stuff in "LOL!" The newest invention, the "Eggstractor" "PUUUULEASE!" :roll: Why on EARTH would you BUY one of those things, isn't it quicker to shell the eggs by hand? :roll:

We have picked up a few things from those annoying ads; I have a "Micro-Touch" mini-electric shaver that I can (and do) use for my ears/nose/thinning my beard, Debi has some exercise items and diet cook book from "The FIRM", and coppertop got some CDs (oldies) from TV promotions.

Saw a laser-straight one night that I went crazy for. Haven't used it yet. It came with a free stud-finder though, which isn't useful at all since I have lathe and plaster walls. Lord only knows if there're studs there.

The micro-touch has always been tempting for a gift for my kid, works good does it?

When these impulses hit, my main defense is to hurry up and change the channel.
