Breakfast at Wal-Mart

Come along for the ride as I try to find my way to where I'm supposed to be. Whether it be Tiffany's or Wal-Mart, it's bound to be a good time getting there!

March Madness: Infomercial Style!

Oh.My.God.

This is seriously the best idea ever. March Madness is great for basketball sure, but what about... informercials?

It's downright genius.

Oh come on, if I was to randomly yell out "Set it and forget it!" you would know what I was talking about. Chances are, you know someone who owns a Loud Mouth Billy Bass. You dream of the Shamwow. And the Magic Bullet? No words are needed to explain that one.

CNBC is hosting the first annual Best Product "As Seen On TV" Bracket . I am voting my little heart out on this, you can be sure about that.
