Informercials and Advertising yourself

26 01 2008

I love informercials. We don’t have cable right now, though mom is pushing for it, so my Saturday morning programming consists of watching early cooking shows and lots of really nifty informercials in the afternoon. So far I’ve watched three of them, the shark steam mop, Nu-wave Oven Pro Infrared Oven, and the GT Xpress 101 and I‘m acting just like the average consumer looking to blow my money on as seen on tv products!  Keep watching I’ll be adding more to this post!

I have to say I hate informmercials.. really cant stand them.. sorry funky…
must agree withs jim and em.. dont go to cable… we did 18months ago and turn it off…. the kids would fight over it, I never got to watch anything and it was such a waste of time and money….
I guess you might love it… it is a possiblity….. but I cant see it..
no no dont do it to yourself…..

We have Sky+ here in Derbyshire. The box is two years old now and showing signs of failure – every so often i have to reformat the hard drive as recordings just stutter and break up – both last two episodes of Doctor Who ! (boo hoo).

The kids hate it because they loose all their soaps they have to keep, so i’m not the most popular ‘cable guy’ in town.

One day I may have enough money to buy a newer larger hard drive and have a go at fitting it myself.

Great post – stay away from the light…….
