That's easier by far the best investment i made was The Green Bags from Debbie Meyers. They have saved me a ton of money in that I'm not throwing out fruit on a reguar basis. If I buy green bananas and put them in a bag, they'll last me two weeks without going bad. Brown lettuce? No problem make it on a green bag and it stays fresh. It's great to place out of season fruit and veggies in also. Well worth the money!

I loved my Ped Eggs! They werre just the ticket for my walking all over WDW/Chicago nasty feet.

Here's another endorsement for the green bags. I bought a flat of strawberries at costco this summer and watched it go moldy within a few days in my refrigerator. I figured paying $10 for the bags might be a great investment if they worked. If they didn't, i'd already spend that much in spoiled fruits and vegetables anyway. I was pleasantly surprised after first using them for lettuce. That one head of lettuce lasted over 2 weeks in the green bag. I've bought some more and have even sent it to my mom and sister and they too can't live without it now.

I would love to buy cricut but it isn't in my budget right now. My sister has one and she absolutely loves it. I've played with it a few times and i think it's the greatest thing. (Unfortunatley she lives over 180 miles away.) I'm just starting on scrapbooking and now that the kids are getting are getting older and having presentations and projects in school, this would be a great addition to our household. If I drop some hints around the house, maybe dh and the kids will get it for me for christmas.:rolleyes:

Space Bags!! :love:

I absolutely love them for storing our comforters, winter coats, snow pants, fleece blankets, etc.

Takes up so much less space in the closets! :clap:

I am really pleased with the Arm N Hammer toothwhitening system. The amount of supplies you received in the offer is impressive. I love the toothpaste and whitening booster... My teeth are noticably whiter after just using one half of the tube of toothpaste...and my teeth always have that "fresh from the dentist clean" feel.

The magic bullet is awesome! I have a video review of one if anyone wants to see it. I love that I can make a smootie for me, a milk shake for dh, and a milk shake for dd without washing the blender in between. I never half to wash a blender, just my glass. They are great for parties or when I am home alone. I have found so many other uses for it too. I use it for making several different dips for parties, margaritas, muffins, and more.

This was originally infomercial only, but you can get it through SR from Linens-N-Things.

Ok, I've never bought it, but I'm interested in 'the cleavage clip'! What's up with that?? I'm a little scared though.....maybe way too old! :o

Let me know if this counts or not...it's from a post of mine earlier this year:

I used it for the first time a few weeks ago. DH LOVED the pancake puffs & I did too. It took some time to get used to learn how to "flip" them though...so I made a few 'scrambled pancake puffs' on accident...

I just used a regular pancake mix & then tried to Disney them up a little (a la cinnamon/sugar combo...think puffed french toast at Crystal Palace) & it worked!! I even took a picture to show you guys, but have since deleted it I guess.

I'd give it a C for first time ease of use (but I'm not that coordinated)
I'd give it an A for fun
and of course I'd give it an A because

it brings pizazz to every meal!! (And don't think I didn't say that to DH a couple times while making them!!)

So if you're like me & you like pancakes & you really enjoy ASOTV items, then yes, it's TOTALLY worth it! If you don't want pizazz added to every meal, then it's NOT for you!

We have the Spoutin Faucet adaptor in my DDs bathroom and our master bathroom. These work great for DDs brushing their teeth. I also appreciate mine since I have to take medicine right away in the morning. Works just like a water fountain.

Here's another endorsement for the Arm & Hammer Toothwhitening System. I think it works moderately well and I got a lot for my money.:sunshine:

I just told my dd the only people that should show cleavage is anyone over 45, even then, nah.

I sure could of used it this weekend. I wore a new dress, and it showed cleavage. I had to use a safety pin.

The Debbie Meyers Green Bags was a good purchase! The bags definitely extend the life of our fruits and vegetables. That means that we are eating better and getting our money out of our produce purchases!!

I purchased Mighty Puddy. I have been working on my porch for 5 years! My house is 118 years old and the paint on the colums and spindles had/have 118 years of paint on them. some of the bases of the colums had cracks and gouges on them. I filled the cracks and gouges with Mighty Puddy and they look great, a coat or two of new paint and the 118 year old wood looks great.

My most favorite As Seen On TV product is, hands down, the Swivel Sweeper. I didn't purchase it myself. It was actually a Christmas gift from my Mother-in-law two years ago. At first I was a little put out that she would buy me a sweeper for Christmas, but it soon became a much-used gift. I literally use it every day! From crumbs under the table, to dog hair, to spilled cereal and snacks....it is great for cleaning up between your regular household vacuumings. I hate dragging out the big, heavy vacuum and the Swivel Sweeper is so light and easy to use. I think every mother of young children should have a Swivel Sweeper! :D

One that was great for us was the Kaboom Never Scrub. It really does keep the toilet bowl clean for a long time - ha, even gets it clean after someone has a messy #2!!:rotfl: You can smell it working too each time you flush (releases cleaning fluid) - and I like the clean smell. I like that it saves me having to scrub the toilet all the time - and DH is impressed, too. (and that is sometimes hard to do with him!)

Okay I have a review that isn't positive. I bought the forearms that are on there right now for our last move. And they are horrible. They are way to long you can't get then short enough and if you do get them short enough now you have mattress in your mouth because you are walking all over it. It doesn't make the furniture any easier to move. We took ours back because it was a joke.

Hercules Hooks! I LOVE them! I have alot....and I mean ALOT of paneling in my house. Gotta love old houses. I had a very heavy shelf to hang, and was afraid to use ordinary screws of nails. DH got the Hercules Hooks (through SR, of course!) and the shelf was up in no time and is as sturdy as can be! They are the best purchase!

I love the Kaboom Never Scrub toilet cleaner. It mounts inside the tank so its not visible and works great! My refill only lasted 2 months not the 3 months they claim but for the price and not having to scrub it is well worth it!

I love the Green Bags by Debbie Meyer. I have had bananas, strawberries, and kiwis, and peaches last for two weeks with the bags. I am definitely saving money on produce!

Love the Green bags, but my favorite are the Aqua Globes! I really didn't think they would work but they are great. They bought back to life a half dead plant I had, kept my outside potted plants from drying out during the summer and I'm always on the look out for more now.

I LOVE my Ped Egg. Seriously thinking of getting every girl in my family one for their Christmas stockings. They work so great.

I love my Ped Egg. I have a callous on one of my two which make is hard to wear sandals in the summer with nothing on my feet. Now that I use Ped Egg it is no longer a problem. I think it is a great item. I used it just before going to Disney.

I love the Space Bags!!! I had a "hidden" closet, head high in the kids bathroom that was full of extra blankets, sheets, quilts, etc. I bought the Space Bags and now I have a lot of room in there!! I bought more so I could do my closet (UUGGGHH!!) next. I can't really say I'm "excited" about going through the closet, but I am excited to see what it looks like when I'm done!!! They are wonderful!!!

I am hoping that my next purchase from As Seen On TV is the Magic Bullet!!! I would love to make some milkshakes, smoothies, salsa, etc. I can't wait to earn some SR points on that!!!

I'm interested in buying the green bags because from all the positive feedback from those that already have them and use these, I'm convinced that I need these!! :rotfl:

I also am a huge fan of the Ped Egg! It's very easy to use and works extremely well. I couldn't tell you the last time my feet looked this good! :)

Hard to decide which one to review - I love the kaboom toilet cleaner, but I think I'll talk about bead magic.

My 7 year old got this as a birthday present, and she has really enjoyed it. It is so easy to do, that she got the hang of it after I showed her how to do it once or twice. It is quick and fun, and the beads stay in when they are suppose to, and come out easily when you are done.

This is also a toy that has had staying power... 6 months later, and she still plays with it.

My vote would be for the space bags. With airlines charging for checked bags, it is a money saver to use these bags for vacation packing. You can condense a lot of clothing into a small bag. And, you'll save time too by not having to wait at the baggage claim.

Time and Money? YAY FOR SPACE BAGS! :clap:

Miss Angie (when I write that it feels like I am talking to a preschool teacher or the head of a brothel...you pick :p)

My question to you is this: Do I need to file a trouble ticket for the spacebags? I know you got my information, but is it easier in the form of a TT?

thanks bunches!!

I actually got a response late on Friday that it was being researched. Wait on the ticket. I'll let you know early this week if I need one! Thanks for askin'!! :)
