My 7-year-old is drawn to infomercial products like a fly to the Bug Zapper Racket … like a dog to Bark Off … like a senior citizen to the EZ Eyes Keyboard … like a mom to those Meaningful Beauty products Cindy Crawford will practically bring to your door. In fact, my little princess is convinced the holidays will be a total disaster without a Big Top Cupcake.
I’m not gonna lie, I’ve been smitten with some of those infomercial inventions myself. I own a couple of Snuggies, for instance — everyone in the commercials looks so comfy on their couches while reading books and not feeling fettered by the constraints of a blanket. I’ve bought P90X, and Moon Sand, and Blendy Pens, and even Pillow Pets (before they sold them everywhere from Walmart to Shell stations).
In fact, some of them are positively irresistible and I want to buy them as gifts. Here are a few I find both ridiculous and at the same time inexplicably appealing:
what’s so bad about being comfortable?!!
Right? I wear pajama pants publicly on a regular basis myself.:)
Lol I wear pjs out too just don’t let me try to pass them off as jeans! Especially since I’m tempted to go so (read it, you’ll see).
love this – just knocked six Christmas gifts off my ‘TO BUY’ list!
ROFL!
booty-pop is for me!!!!!!!!!!!
