I'm no coin collector, but do the serious ones out there really want a coin simply because it says <i>One Trillion Dollars</i>? Especially since the basis for the collectors coin is now an abandoned idea that's not going to take place.<br />
<br />
Maybe the creators of this spot are banking on the fact that some people out there are dumb enough to think they really have a trillion dollars in their pocket, but I like to think our citizens are brighter than that. Maybe I'm a little delusional. <br />
<br />
Any coin collectors out there that can weigh in on this? Would you buy the <a href="http://www.trillionproof.com/">Trillion Dollar Coin</a>?Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02851971680396663345noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8855527610240729757.post-31043500302915223582012-12-20T16:32:00.000-07:002012-12-20T16:32:52.694-07:00InstaHang: Product Review<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Things got a little crazy what with the holidays but I've got some great products lined up to review. The first up is <a href="https://www.instahang.com/">InstaHang</a>. The spot sold me. Hanging things is a headache. Is it straight? Too high? Too low? Is this the right nail or hook? I hate hanging things. The problem is, <a href="https://www.instahang.com/">InstaHang</a> doesn't really solve any of these problems. Sure, it inserts your nail at an angle but that's the easiest part of the whole process right? <br />
The first time I hit the dispenser I didn't do it hard enough, so the nail didn't go all the way into the wall. The second time I tried, I hit it hard enough but I moved the InstaHang in the process and missed my mark. So yes, my problem with this product could chalk up to user error, but isn't the whole point to make the process easier for the user?<br />
<br />
Needless to say, my recommendation is to pass on this one.

This picture does not exist because this never happened. The first night I tried the <a href="https://www.buythepillow.com/">Sobakawa Cloud pillow</a> I threw it on the floor after about 15 minutes. The second night I tried this pillow I slept on it all night, woke up a couple hours before my alarm, realized my neck was super uncomfortable, and threw it on the floor before going back to sleep.<br />
I gave it to my husband to try it out for the next two nights to see if a different style sleeper liked it better. He hated it. So then I gave it to my brother and sister-in-law. Because I wanted to make sure that we conducted a highly scientific experiment to ensure maximum quality results. They both tried it for one night each and neither of them made it through the whole night. Then my 5-year-old nephew found it the next day, proclaimed it to be his and the rest is history. Congratulations <a href="https://www.buythepillow.com/">Sobakawa</a>, children love you. The same children who fall asleep in car seats with their head hanging awkwardly to the side, so really they are terrible judges of what is comfortable.<br />

<iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/WMk0vVtoa4k" width="420"></iframe></center>
<br />
I'm going to come right out and say it. <a href="https://www.buynomesskitchenboard.com/">I like this one</a>. The demonstration won't blow your mind. It's a cutting board with holes in it. But the problem it's solving, I can relate to. Meat juices running off the board and onto the counter, down the cabinets, and onto the floor. It's happened to me, it's happened to my mom, it's happened to my father-in-law, and if it hasn't happened to you, you must be a vegetarian.<br />
I like that not only does it prevent spilling, it also makes it super easy to make gravy.<br />
But wait! There's more!<br />
You can also use it to clean fruits and veggies before you cut them up. (That's where you vegetarians can appreciate this product too! The <a href="https://www.buynomesskitchenboard.com/">No Mess Kitchen Board</a> doesn't discriminate.)<br />
BUT! While I might appreciate this product if it were already in my kitchen and make good use of it a few times a year, does it move me enough to pick up the phone and buy it right now? No. Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02851971680396663345noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8855527610240729757.post-51647265833697611252012-10-30T23:14:00.000-06:002012-10-30T23:14:05.123-06:00Stretch Genie: Product Review<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I don't think I can put into words how excited I was about this product. And because I want you to get excited with me, here's how it works. You spray the <a href="https://www.stretchgenie.com/STRGEN/4.0000/index.dtm">Stretch Genie</a> spray into your shoes where they feel a little tight, you insert the expanders into your shoes, and then you wait a few hours (I waited 24. I wasn't messing around). After you remove the expanders, your shoes will be a little wider and a lot more comfortable. I was sold. And here's why. On three different occasions I have scheduled foot surgery to get rid of bunions that were a result of years of dancing and wearing heels. They cause tremendous pain. And on three different occasions I have wimped out because recovery time for foot surgery is a little ridiculous, and I'd have to wear sneakers for over 6 months. Sneakers! Ew! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I kid, I kid. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As an alternative to surgery, doctors have recommended that I stop wearing heels. To which I said, I'm 24 years old and my husband is a foot taller than me. That is just not going to happen. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My point is, foot pain is a very common occurrence for me. So you can understand my excitement when I heard there was a product out there that would stretch my shoes and make them more comfortable. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Obviously, I set this <a href="https://www.stretchgenie.com/STRGEN/4.0000/index.dtm">poor little sucker</a> up for failure. My expectations were waaay too high. But here's the deal. This product actually does work. Just not as well as I had hoped. And I gave it ample opportunity to succeed. I stretched each shoe at least twice for 24 hours. I stretched my nude pumps four times but those guys just wouldn't give. My Sperrys stretched the best, followed by my black wedges. I'll probably continue to stretch them to get them nice and wide. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
One important thing to remember with this product is that it works best on leather and suede. It's really not intended for artificial fabrics as they have less give to them and will possibly show visible cracks due to the stretch. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So here's the breakdown:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- On a scale of 1-5, 1 being a "This product is a scam" and a 5 being "This product is the greatest thing since sliced bread," I give it a 4. I'd give it a 3 but that is sooo non-committal, and maybe if I give it a 4, it will start acting like a 4 should. Really, I just want this product to work for me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- You may have to go through the stretching process a few times.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- It will work better on some fabrics better than others. Unfortunately, it won't fix all of your shoes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My recommendation: <a href="https://www.stretchgenie.com/STRGEN/4.0000/index.dtm">Buy It</a>. It will work really well for some of your shoes. And it's pretty inexpensive. So it's worth the try.</div>

<br />
Looks like the Forever Lazy is still kickin. When I first saw this infomercial, my initial reaction to this spot was, "You would <b>never</b> catch me out in public in that thing!" Though, my second reaction was, "But it looks sooo warm and cozy!" Visions of warm fires, freshly baked cookies, and cinnamon hot cocoa danced through my head. And while I would die before going outside in it and am appalled that they think I would ever make use of that ridiculous buttflap, I am extremely tempted to get my hands on my own <a href="http://www.hercle.com/affiliate/scripts/click.php?a_aid=4c1a44b9cdd9b&a_bid=ccd11bab">Forever Lazy</a> as the temperature continues to drop. Do it for the cookies people. For the cookies. <br />
<br />
P.S. Also, the "while dad does what he does best" line at 0:53?? I don't know about you, but the men in my life never fall asleep during the big game.<br />

<br />
The look has <b>changed</b>.<br />
<br />
The blog author has <b>changed</b>. (Hi! I'm Rebecca!)<br />
<br />
AND, the content is going to <b>change</b>... <i>a bit</i>. While we will still review our favorite DRTV spots, I'm also going to start reviewing the products themselves. I've been testing out some of the most popular As Seen on TV products and can't wait to tell you which ones are destined for greatness and which ones are destined for the garbage.<br />

And things are about to get a little <a href="http://asseenontvfan.blogspot.com/2012/01/vince-offer-and-schticky.html">Schticky</a>. Do you think the ShamWow guy only aligns himself with successful products, or do you think they are successful because he teams up with them? ShamWow and the Slap Chop were old, stale versions of shammy towels and food choppers yet he somehow brought them back to life in a HUGE way! The <a href="http://asseenontvfan.blogspot.com/2010/07/sticky-wicky-new-sham-wow.html">Sticky Wicky</a> came out and was a flop, but with Vince on its side, The Schticky may be a huge success. And this infomercial also succesfully makes light of Vince's infamous mug shot. He looks his best in this one, which if good since his last one wasn't so pretty. <br />

Generally speaking, the holidays are a time of cheer. Less generally and more specifically: shopping is a headache, traveling is a headache, decorating is a headache, and let’s be honest here, family can be a headache. That’s 4 headaches total. But with DoorDelights, you’ll be down to 3. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;">DoorDelights are magnetic holiday decorations. You can put them on your garage door, your front door, your fridge door, or your car door (okay, you can put them on your whole car, but you get the point). The garage takes up 30% of the average home and yet there has been no good way to decorate it until now. This is something so easy that that anyone can do it. You can hand them over to your little minion elves, aka children, and they’ll be glad you asked. Because DoorDelights are so easy to use and so durable, your kids will have fun finding new ways to arrange the decorations and keep the holiday cheer high.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

Personally, I think this is brilliant. For younger kids that have a hard timing falling asleep, <a href="https://www.buyglowbuddy.com/">this bear</a> will become their new best bedtime friend. And older kids love things that glow in the dark. I'll definitely be ordering one for my niece. Her birthday is coming up, and I know this is something that she will love.

DidiSeven was a monster hit in the early 1990's, selling tens of millions of stain remover tubes worldwide long before the introduction of OxiClean that led to its demise. The marketers have brought back the same powerful formula to try it again in 2010...hey, that rhymed! Can they repeat their success? Adding <a href="http://www.2for1shamwow.com/?linkid=5831&subid=">ShamWow</a> as a free giveaway just might put it over the edge...<br />
<br />
Check out the latest DidiSeven Infomercial approach:<br />

Not what you're thinking!<strong><u><span style="color: #3d85c6;"><a href="http://www.stickyballs.com/">Sticky Balls</a></span></u></strong>. What were <u>you</u> thinking? These are simply super-powerful neo-dymium magnets that when used properly can eat up your entire day. Nothing more, nothing less. Some call Sticky Balls the "toy of the century," but we're only 10 years into the century, so that's not saying much. Personally, I prefer to think of them as "endless fun." However, the real reason to love Sticky Balls is because "you'll amaze your friends!" Wait a minute....I think they're using my quotes in the video....see if your magic comments can end up in the ad...<br />

The tricks are unbelievable. I found several "how to" videos as well on the Sticky Balls YouTube channel: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/buystickyballs">http://www.youtube.com/user/buystickyballs</a>. <br />
<br />
My personal favorite video, however, is the Sticky Balls Rap:<br />

Tan in the winter?<strong>Secret Glo</strong>. Pasty is not pretty. I don't care what Lady Gaga says...when I'm pasty in the winter, no one notices me. In this economy, it's hard to afford weekly sessions at the spray on tanning salon. Tanning lotions don't work. And tanning creams leave your skin splotchy. What's a girl to do? Enter Tan Wow (would have been a much cooler name for Secret Glo...and Vince could have done wonders for the product!). Just wipe on the cloth and wipe off your pastiness. Instant self-esteem...even in the dead of winter.<br />
<br />
The only question...does it really work? Too early to tell...if you've tried it, please let us know.<br />

Look great and feel self-conscious!<strong><a href="https://www.pajamajeans.com/flare/next">Pajama Jeans</a></strong>. It appears that the Pajama Jeans infomercial is rolling out. That makes me so happy. I lost a few pounds over the summer, so I can now fit back into my skinny jeans, just in time for the holidays. I feel sexy wearing skinny jeans, but I feel comfortable in my Pajama Jeans. Oh, and I also feel like I'm wearing pajamas. You'd think that would be a good thing, but I constantly worry that everyone around me realizes that I'm wearing pajamas. This really bothered my until I realized that I can't wear them 14 days in a row like I do with my normal pajamas. People were starting to talk.<br />
<br />
Now that I only wear my Pajama Jeans a few times a week, I'm over my self-conscious worrying. These are so comfortable, sometimes it feels like I'm not wearing anything at all. I try not to dwell on that one, or I'd never venture outside.<br />
<br />
What do you think of your Pajama Jeans? Send photos, and I'll upload them to the site...just make sure you don't go outside in your slippers and nighty...I made that mistake the first week...<br />
<br />

Never take off your sweatpants again!<a href="https://www.theezstringer.com/flare/next?rtag=buyezstringer&">EZ Stringer</a>. The recession is hitting all of us pretty hard. The one positive I've experienced is that I've been able to wear sweatpants more often. What used to be the norm only for a jog along Lakeshore Drive has now become my most consistent fashion. Taco Bell doesn't care if I'm wearing sweatpants as I go through the drive-thru. Netflix still delivers movies to me....they don't care if I'm wearing pants at all! The more you wear sweatpants, the more comfortable they get. Then one day...the drawstring comes out in the wash, and your perfectly conditioned sweatpants are now useless.<br />
<br />
My only solution is to gain 50 pounds so the pants hold themselves up....until now! Introducing EZ Stringer...the easy way to restring your drawstrings. I honestly can't believe no one has thought of this before! So I'm off to dumpster dive for my cherished sweatpants...I miss them....<br />

Clean Sweep vs. Secure Sleeve vs. Select-A-Wrench<strong><u>08/26/10 Pitchmen</u></strong>. On this week's Pitchmen episode, we see Anthony Sullivan testing three very different products: OnTel Products' Clean Sweep, the latest successor to the Swivel Sweeper. ID Stronghold's Secure Sleeve, a unique protection device to keep identity thieves away from your credit card numbers. And, a young inventor's Select-A-Wrench.<br />
<br />
Clean Sweep. The Swivel Sweeper has been a huge success for OnTel Products and for Anthony Sullivan. To date, they have sold well over 20MM units worldwide. The company has toyed with minor changes to the product in an attempt to keep the marketing campaign alive, but the Clean Sweep is there first real change in years. It combines microfiber with the Swivel Sweeper sweeping action. Look for this to awaken a tired brand, especially with the PR help of the Discover Channel's Pitchmen.<br />
<br />
ID Stonghold's Secure Sleeve. Eh? Have you ever heard of someone having their identity stolen from a passerby? If you have to explain the problem, then the infomercial will never convince the consumer to pick up the phone and place an order. They'll wait to hear it on the news or from a friend firsthand. It's starting to look like Sully is accepting any product for Pitchmen as long as the client has money. Can you effectively use Pitchmen as a PR vehicle for your product, even if the infomercial, by itself, has little chance of success? I guess we'll have to wait and see. They claimed a super-successful test market, but I haven't been able to see the spot anywhere...have any of you had any luck? Other than a few small news stories that have already been commented on? On 9/2/10, we'll see two more products that are clearly being marketed via Pitchmen rather than being able to stand on their own, Fridge Locker and RX Locker. I'll discuss them in more detail next week.<br />
<br />
Check out the product's website <a href="http://www.idstronghold.com/?gclid=CLqB2fqQ26MCFQImbAodfS3a-A">HERE</a>.<br />
<br />
Select-A-Wrench. Great tear-jerking story about a young kid with passion and a pretty good idea. Sounds like we'll have to wait a couple of years to see if it's going to work....not sure why....<br />

Sadly, Billy Mays is no longer with us as the 2nd season of Pitchmen begins airing on The Discovery Channel August 19, 2010. Anthony Sullivan is back in full force, and begins with his now infamous 2 product pitch-off format. In this season premiere, Cold Fire is pitted against Hexlight. <br />
<br />
Fire prevention vs. a new flashlight. Hmmm.....normally prevention products don't sell well on TV, but Cold Fire broke through. Hexlight, on the other hand, is in the midst of clutter on TV with several "unique" flashlights being tested. Jordan Pine wrote a great explanation on why the fourth to market rarely succeeds on TV, especially when flashlights have been tested without success. Can this be the first to really make it this year...unlikely. Even on the Pitchmen TV show, where exaggeration is the norm, they claimed that first year sales are expected to hit $3MM. In the infomercial world, that means it will be relegated to catalogs and web campaigns. Check out Jordan's article <a href="http://scimark.blogspot.com/2010/07/review-flashlight-man.html">HERE</a>.<br />
<br />
Cold Fire, on the other hand, is the first to the infomercial market in the fire extinguisher category. Normal fire extinguishers are difficult to operate and they leave behind a toxic residue. Cold Fire is as easy to operate as a can of hairspray (although I've found that hairspray is not nearly as effective at extinguishing fires...). Every home in America should have at least one fire extinguisher, and the alternative to Cold Fire is usually more expensive....so why shouldn't this work?...especially, with the now famous Anthony Sullivan as the Pitchman, Cold Fire should be one of the more successful infomercials of 2010.<br />
