Seen Reviews

I have to admit, I haven’t done much As Seen On TV shopping in a while as I’m broke, but when I saw the Big Squirt! I go a rush of childhood nostalgia and just had to get a set.

Basically, this thing is a think balloon you fill with water then squirt people with said water — I know, rocket science. So why did I write this Big Squirt Review? Because it’s AWESOME!
If you haven’t seen the Big Squirt water toy on TV, you probably have no idea what I’m talking about. So go check out the Official Big Squrit Site and see some videos of it in action — I’ll wait.

…

Awesome right?! I had something similar as a kid called Water Weenies which were also insanely fun but with a just horrible name. The Big Squirt water gun is far superior to even my fun memories of the Water Weenie.

I got a five-pack of these things and must say I had an amazing time with some friends. You just fill them up with the hose in a few seconds then you’re ready for an awesome water fight. My neighbor even came out at about 11 one night to see what was going on because there was so much screaming and laughing. We had a couple drinks on one stifling summer night and basically went insane running around the house and the yard, even the dog was soaked.

They are, of course, meant for children. And they had just as much fun as we adults did. My sister brought her two kiddos over for my unemployed butt to babysit and I broke out the Big Squirt set. At first they asked what the strange looking things were, but soon enough they were exhausted, wet and ready for a nap — which was perfect, because I was ready to watch some more infomercials.

Buy It Or Not?

Definitely >>Buy Big Squirt!<< and have a blast blasting your friends and family.

Despite saying I should find a job instead of just laying around the house, my wonderful girlfriend got me a Snuggie blanket with sleeves for my birthday! It’s really taken my slothfulness to the next level.

I’m sure you’ve seen the As Seen on TV Snuggie by now, I’ve even seen it on the news nearly every week. But, if you haven’t, you must see this thing. It’s exactly what it says, a blanket with sleeves. When I first saw it, I thought it was totally ridiculous — you just lay on your couch with your hands sticking through the blanket.

The Snuggie actually does make working or dozing on the couch much easier — snacking too. I wear it just about all the time while watching TV, it’s also great for playing video games.

When I first opened it, I thought it was the silliest gift ever, but I know exactly what I’m telling my friends I’d get them if I had a job!

The only downside was that the fleece tends to pick up a lot of pet hair where it drags on the ground (as pictured here). But this may be attributed to my inability to work the vacuum.

Buy It Or Not?

How could you not buy this?! Look at how silly it is! Of course buy it!

The blanket with sleeves’ powers that be made sure that you could always get a buy one Snuggie, get one free so give the other one away to a lazy friend and BAM, you’ve started your cult!

The Snuggie also comes with a cheap clip-on book light. But I have lights, so it’s found a nice spot in my junk drawer.

When I still had a job, I was insane about keeping my car clean, and I bought a really handy car cleaning tool, the Windshield Wonder — it’s like 10 times better than a rag on a stick.

If you’re like me, you can’t afford to drive much. But you love to have a shiny car sitting in the yard (or garage if you’re some kind of rich person). That’s why I had to get this handy little infomercial windshield cleaner. In the days before I got the Windshield Wonder — the dark ages — I either had to break out a wooden spoon and put a wash cloth on it just to clean my windshield. Try it sometime, it’s really annoying, the rag keeps falling off and you get a million streaks across your field of vision.

And if you don’t clean your windshield, you’re left with smudges from who knows what catching your eye when you’re supposed to be driving. Now I can’t say an As Seen on TV windshield cleaner saves lives, but staring those smudges could send you crashing right into a bus stop full of children — no good.

That — and because I used to have extra money — is why I bought the Windshield Wonder. And so far, I have not hit anyone.

It’s really easy to use, as you can see by my girlfriend’s arm in the picture. Just drag it across the inside of the windshield or rear window. It says you can use it with just tap water, but I usually spray a bit of all-purpose glass cleaner first. It’s also handy for cleaning rear view mirrors, which can be inset in a really strange way.

I keep it in the car at all times, just in case I sneeze on the window or someone puts their nasty feet on my dashboard and smudges the glass with their toes — you know who you are. It’s a breeze to just wipe it off.

Buy It Or Not?

Buy it. Even if you’re not crazy about keeping your car clean the Windshield Wonder is handy to keep your vision clear and safe. They’re doing some deal now that you can get two kits which include the windshield cleaning device, a microfiber towel and a spray bottle for water (or glass cleaner).
Go buy Windshield Wonder and get one free. Maybe give it to one of your unemployed friends, you could probably even get them to clean your car for it — I would.
