The magic bag worked for me. It's basically a heating/cooling pad and it worked.

Shamwows also work and same with Proactiv's toner and mask. That cleanser was the worst thing for my face though. It made my skin flake off and I was using rich moisturizers day and night with oily skin.

Proactiv: Worked for a while, and then made my acne so bad I used to cry if I had to go out in public! (lol what a sob story! my acne is all better now... thank-you lush!)

Magic Bullet: My boyfriends family has one of these... its okay... but its nothing spectacular. I tried to chop up some onions and peppers while making vegetarian lasagna at their house, and it didn't work... Its fine for smoothies though.

I think those are the only two I have tried... I try never to get sucked into those things, I do like watching them sometimes though... and I want to try shamwow one day!

Oh and I am still kicking myself from years past for the following sucker buys

George Foreman grill (Please go back in the ring!! I hate this piece of shit)

Suzanne Somer's Thighmaster (YESSSS!!! I did buy it and the next week I saw her on TV being wheeled out of the Plastic Surgeon's office)

Billy Mays Hercules Hooks...These are good if you have dead bodies laying around in the way (Billy Mays will make you buy your own shit if you are not careful!!!)

Oxiclean - Now this stuff does work!!

Slim in 6 tapes (You had to use these by the way and not just watch them...pfffttt)

Oh I just used the George Foreman grill tonight. I really like it. Oxyclean does actually work too. I keep forgetting about all these things.

great for my clothes and feet.
i definitely want to try shamwow (anyone hear of what happened to him with a hooker? hilarious)


btw, those insect repellers "riddex'" makes pets very uncomfortable, something about it impacts their hearing so thats no good.

My mom bought the Pedi Paws, and it doesn't work for me, whenever I push hard enough for any actual "Sanding" to be done, the thing stops.

Oxi-clean never worked better for me than just regular detergent.

Quick & Brite total junk!

I want those Sham Wows so bad. Do they really work as well as the commercial.

Side note about Sham Wow...did anyone see that the creepy guy that does the infomercials was arrested a few months ago for beating up a hooker?

Too funny!

But, I am still trying to get my dogs to accept it. When I got one of my adopted dogs, she was missing a toe. She totally freaks to have her paws touched. One of my other dogs had someone nearly clip off his entire claw, so he freaks to have someone hold his paw. My other dog thinks it's a chew toy. I am still working on this. (Sigh)


What cracks me up about the pedipaw commercial is the cat in it. No cat is just going to sit there with its paw up and let you trim it's nails. I have to almost put Coach (my cat) in a kitty straight jacket to get his nails trimmed.

I am glad to know that the pediegg works so well for people. I am going to have to pick one of those up.

Right now I am currently liking the strap perfect. You use strap perfect on your bra strap and it helps conceal them with different tops. It also gives you a major lift. They do work really well.

Great topic BTW!!
