What have you bought that was adveristed on TV that is a total waste of $
I'm sure over the years I've bought a few things, but this recently I bought Smooth Away, the hair remover with the pads. I bought it at Target. It doesn't work! I plan on returning it to the company.

Those dryer balls! Didn't soften the clothes or eliminate static!

I didn't buy it, but a pedegg.... don't like it at all.... it's much easier and more efficient to buff your heels the same way they do in salons.....

REALLY? My SIL just bought it at CVS and it worked AMAZING on her arms...I almost bought one myself... Theres not a drop of hair on her ...so smooth?
I wonder if there are different "brands of it" or if it just worked on that hair type better??

I don't buy into that stuff very often but I bought this suitcase from joy magano that was on HSN. it was supposed to hold all this stuff, and not let it get wrinkled. It was the biggest piece of crap, everything came out wrinkled, i found it held so much less, and it was SOOOOO heavy! it wasn't cheap either.
thankfully southwest broke it after my second use. I was so embarrassed seeing my luggage come around on the belt with my underwear hanging out, but they paid for the price of the luggage. I was never so grateful to have an airline ruin my luggage!

I guess I'll have to read the directions again. Thanks

Shamwow. My DH bought it for my son since he was obsessed with the commerical. 
Shamwow is a glorified paper towel.

I don't remember the name of it but it was an exercise machine to trim your thighs and tush. It did not work at all.

Nads, that hair removal gel. Didn't work for me! I was sooo disappointed. I wanted to wax my eyebrows at home instead of always going to the salon.

Some exercise machine from Tony Little. I forget the name of it. I kept pulling my hamstrings left and right. The thing was horrible. I returned it and got 100% refund. Sooooo many years ago.

really?? I LOVE it!! It's probably one of the only 'as seen on TV" items I bought that actually does what it says.
to answer the OP's question - the magic bullet. what a waste of $$

See now I loved the magic bullet I have made everything in that thing!! The Ped egg not so good in my opinion.
The stupidest thing that I was suckered into buying was the ab belt that sent electronic pulses to your abs to firm them up!! I am embarrassed to even admit that I used it (and it hurt too )
