| 418750 | 2006-01-06 04:23:00 | I mean, you'd have to be crazy not to. They are such fantastic bargains. You can have a body like a movie star, a brain like einstein, non-stick cookware, sunglasses that see in the dark, ladders that are 14 in one, teeth like flashlights. And all for only.......? Does anyone buy from these, and if so, how have you found the product? I notice they all say "individual results may vary". just curious |

| 418751 | 2006-01-06 04:38:00 | Yeah, I'm really thinking about buying some of that 'Luminous bronzer' that gets darker the more you cake... sorry put on. What the hell do they mean by 'light reflecting spheres'?... sounds a bit 'Gary Glitter' to me! Hopefully they'll come up with something soon that will do a painless bikini wax while whitening your teeth at the same time. Or a pyrethrum based perfume that doubles as a fly killer. |

| 418753 | 2006-01-06 05:19:00 | I'm sure there are a few of the regulars here that have been told they aren't in their right mind. | Greven (91) | ||
| 418754 | 2006-01-06 05:20:00 | Well the fact that you can buy one of those "24 ladders in one" - I think they're called Little Giant or something like that - at Mitre10 Mega for $250, why in the world would you pay "10 easy payments of $79.95 + postage and handling" for the one on TV? | somebody (208) | ||
| 418755 | 2006-01-06 05:24:00 | I'd prefer to die a slow tortuously painful death before buying anything from those ads. I think they're about as bad as having to spend an afternoon tea in the company of bartsdadhomer. | Greg (193) | ||
| 418756 | 2006-01-06 05:29:00 | I haven't seen any of those 'amazing' video workout ads this new years... but then I'm too busy stuffing my face when Oprah's on :-) | Shortcircuit (1666) | ||
| 418757 | 2006-01-06 05:44:00 | Well. somebody must be buying that stuff. (Apologies to somebody). I tried to post it sort of value free. Rather than "What idiot would buy this stuff?" sort of thread title so peeps who have and do could post without feeling they were 'owning up' to something. :D So? No-one? :help: C'mon that non-stick godknowswhatsortofplastic stuff for baking is amazing. |

| 418758 | 2006-01-06 06:13:00 | Hahaha, and the knives that hack through cans then slice your tomaoto perfectly after.... I never have and never will. But I did buy a duvet out of one of those catalogues you find in magazines once. Forget the name of it - they sell weird stuff in like magnetic belts that make you thin and fit and that sort of rubbish. But the duvet was gorgeous. Still have it too. |

| 418759 | 2006-01-06 06:27:00 | Sounds like "Innovations" . Friend's of mine who aren't insane use that, bit like Postie Plus rather than But wat! There's more! So no-one? Don't be embarressed . My dad and I gut sucked into Reader's Digest and their gambling addiction scheme . "You now have a guranteed chance of winning . . . . . . . . " . Got a good Times Atlas and few other things though and a free complimintary non-chargeable gift of a biro that never worked . |
