OK, confession time.
I have learned my lesson and will never buy anything off tv again.
1. I bought one of those ellipse exercise machines. I used it for a while but eventually it became a hanging place for clothes.
2. The Bacon Wave was actually a pretty good buy, and to be fair I didn't get it, Ratbastid did. We lost it when we moved, and really a paper towel on a plate in the microwave does just as well.
3. Ratbastid mentioned once that he wanted a Sobakawa pillow, so I got one for him. It gave him a headache. I gave it to my cat, who promptly peed all over it.
So, 1 for 3. Not a bad record, but I'm done now. I've been tempted by the flip folder, the travel space bag, and those little mini sewing machines. I just have to think "sobakawa" and I put my credit card back where it belongs, in the freezer.
