ShamWow! You'll Say WOW everytime!

College Life

<p>So, </p>

<p>I saw the infomercial the other day, I thought “Maybe that would be freaking awesome to have in college, maybe I should buy it!” </p>

<p>So, does this thing work? it’s 19.99, and the commercial looks low budget though, (u can totally tell they change the carpet when he says he’s doing it “live”)</p>

<p>Um, and what about the Zorbeez? Billy mays says it’s awesome (hate the guy)</p>

2

<p>I have no idea, but I want one. Haha.</p>

3

<p>i want one. sooo badly.</p>

<p>one time some friends and i almost ordered the buy-one-get-one-free set when we were drunk so we could divide it amongst ourselves…</p>

4

<p>My brother/sister-in-law saw a live demonstration at the Minnesota State Fair. I think they said the carpet thing worked (though not quite as miraculously as they make it appear in the commercial), and it really could absorb that much liquid.</p>

<p>Amazon to the rescue!</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Watch the reviewer’s video. Funny stuff.</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure the stuff the is the same material that divers (of swim & dive) use to dry off between dives at a meet. It gets most of the water off, and can be wrung out easily.</p>

<p>Also, stop shouting at me, Billy Mays. I’m not deaf.</p>

<p>ShamNO.</p>

<p>This is completely irrelevant but who has a Snuggie lol?</p>

8

<p>^The reviewer seemed really annoyed ; I couldn’t stop laughing!
my parents bought these from costco and returned them the same day. The towels were flimsy and if I tried, I probably could have torn one in half. I don’t know about the tv price, but for the price at costco, it would have been better to buy normal washcloths.</p>

9

<p>Ooo, my grandmother bought me a Snuggie for Christmas…it’s just a blanket with sleeves. Don’t go there. </p>

<p>Oh, and the static is atrocious.</p>

10

<p>Saw a sham-wow demonstration when i was visiting vegas… it really does work, even the carpet demo. I didn’t believe it until i saw it</p>

11

<p>At our office Christmas party this year, one of the yankee swap gifts was the Sham-Wow-thought it was just a gag gift, but it ended up being the top gift choice of #1!</p>

12

<p>^</p>

<p>I think the Sham Wow works (seen videos, not the infomercial)</p>

<p>but I think they don’t have good quality control. There are some people super happy with their ShamWows and others who hate them cause they don’t do anything.</p>

<p>I wonder…</p>

<p>^For whoever asked about the Snuggie.</p>

14

<p>I saw those at Costco. IMO, save your money. Shamwow is a rip off of The Absorber, which is made in Japan by Kanebo or Teijin and sold at auto parts stores.</p>

15

<p>The ShamWow sucks, are you following me camera guy?</p>

17

<p>^ hahahah</p>

<p>yes, yes I am.</p>

<p>So what is the TRUTH about Shamwow?</p>

18

<p>general rule… nothing works as it is advertised on tv.</p>
