What is the last or the silliest thing you've ever bought off TV? Either an infomercial or the extended commercials.

My sister bought "Floam".... she said it was a distastrous mess.

I recently purchased something, it will arrive in 2-6 weeks! laugh

I bought a Tweezee. Because I hate shaving with a passion.

I've never bought anything from the TV. I think Billy Mays' endless shouting has scarred me for life.

Jeez, the last thing I remember buying after having seen it on TV (not counting everyday things) was probably some record album from K-tel! laugh

At least, I can't think of anything else.

I bought those Snuggies.... yes I did. laugh

My son begged me and begged me and finally I said, okay then... we selected the pale green. I did decline the upgrade with a thicker fleece and pockets for my remote.

Isn't a Snuggie just a bathrobe that you put on backwards?

Yes, I do believe it is, but it's longer, like a blanket. My son and I always tug over the larger blanket and he wanted to be 'twins' while we watch movies, so I called. (He is 7)

I've never bought anything off tv, but when they were little, my daughters pitched in and bought me a pocket fisherman.laugh
I've never actually used it and because they were so tickled with themselves for secretly buying it with their own money and giving it to me on my birthday, I can't just throw it it away.I guess I'm stuck with it for life...ohwell

I cracked up when I saw the commercial for those...while living in Minnesota, I was delighted to hear that they called wedgies a "snuggie"...

I recorded some movie and it was on every single commercial, which is why I think I finally caved. I was laughing the whole time I was on the automated thing. I might just have him take a picture of me wrapped up in and post it on the site when it arrives!

Oh my mom buys stuff from there all the time. But I mean the funny stuff on the TV ads that you'd never really thing you'd buy....

Come on, I know you have some exercise stuff and that magic bullet blender thing, Pats...happy
