I paid $19 for a sandwich bag of lint?

Sandwich bags of Snuggie lint? GROSS!

Been dying to buy one of the 'As Seen on TV' darlings like the ShamWow, Ped Egg or the Ab Circle Pro?

Consumer Reports recently tested 15 'As Seen on TV' products, listing the pros and cons of all. The Snuggie scored for keeping you toasty, but shed enough lint in the washing machine to fill a sandwich bag, according to the report. The Ab Circle is going to require more than 3 minutes a day to effectively engage your core muscles and a sponge holds more soda than a ShamWow.

Sure that isn't "lint?"

True, these promoted products are often not as good as advertised. But I've found that some of them are pretty useful...I usually check with infonotmercials.com to see if they've done a review on a product I'm interested in. Basically, the site also tests out products, does video reviews. Might be similar to the consumer reports, or maybe you'll find some new information. I find them pretty entertaining. Hope this helps!
