Earlier, during our visit to my parents in March, my mom and I were chatting — and I said something like “wouldn’t it be a great invention to have a magnet on the ends of a necklace to make it easy to put on” — not knowing that such a marvelous invention was just a cable channel away. My mom told me that she had stopped wearing some of her favorite jewelry — and that she would love such a product. After I returned to Phoenix — I was working out on the elliptical cross-trainer at Lifetime Fitness when the infomercial for the Clever Clasp was broadcast on the TVs that are supposed to keep you awake while you exercise. This is just what we were talking about! So I noted the name and website address to check it out when I got home. And, despite my skepticism, it seemed like it might do what it claimed and since it only cost $14.99 (plus a “nominal" shipping and handling charge), I ordered a set for my mom. |
Here’s a few others: One final aspect that is interesting about these reviews by customers is that visitors to the website can “vote” on whether the review quality was “real” or “fake”. The reviewers even get reviewed. [Ed. note: unfortunately, the website is no longer online.] Happy infomercialing! |
