Truth in advertising!!!

actually if you read the smaler details, or the fine prints, even the 50% less salt, less sodium, lite, light compared to their regular

for example piknik shoestring potato, it had 50%less salt/sodium on fine detail youll read compared to regular shoestring which is loaded with salt, hehehe=p

so be wise read the label before buying=)

Ako may mga binili din ako na as seen on tv products.

1. Yung hand held blender/food processor thing, nalimutan ko kung ano ang tawag. Powerful nga siya, nakaka gawa nga ng ice cream nung una, kaso ang problema madaling masira. What they did not tell syempre hindi nila sasabihin, after 1 minute, nag iinit yung unit, ayun ngayon lusaw na yung plastic parts nun, actually napapalitan ko na nga yun e, 2nd motor ko na yun.

2. Yung maliit na vacuum cleaner, actually sa mall ko ito binili, na kaka impress kasi yung demo, na vacuum yung 16 lbs na bowling ball. Pero nung nasa amin na, oo nga, powerfull nga siya, kayang higupin ang malalaking kalat. Pero ang problema, kapag napuno na siya ng alikabok, at buhok, hindi na siya maka higop. E sa liit nun, masyadong madaling mapuno.

Ang matiniding side effect pa nun, yung unang product na binili ko ay sa Value vision ko binili. Eto maya't maya ang tawag ng mga tele marketers, minsan gabi na tumatawag pa din.

Minsan nga natatawa na lang ako pero nakaka ubos talaga ng pasesya, minsan may tumawag dito, sabi ko kaagad pasensya na hindi ako interesado. Sagot naman siya, e maam hindi nyo pa nga po alam kung ano ang inooffer ko e hindi na kaagad kayo interesado, pakinggan nyo po muna. O sige sabi ko naman. Tapos nag litanya na siya ng mga produkto niya. Tapos sabi ko, pasensya na talaga saka kahit naman interesado ako e wala naman akong pera, so bale wala din di ba? E maam credit card po? Pasensya na talaga. That time e paalis kami so after nung last na sagot niya, hindi ko na matandaan sabi ko ulit, pasensya na talaga tapos diretso ko na binaba yung phone hindi ko na hinintay yung hirit niya.

Tapos pagkababa ko, may tumatawag na naman e di sinagot ko bago kami umalis, tapos siya na naman, galit siya, sabi niya sa akin, maam hindi nyo naman po kailangan ibagsak yung telepono (hindi ko naman talaga binagsak, maayos ang pagka baba ko), sabihin nyo lang na hindi kayo interesado. Tapos binabaan na niya ako ng phone. Sobrang nanginig ako nun sa galit. Kaya tandang tanda ko pa din hanggang ngayon e. Imagine, umpisa pa lang e sinabi ko nang hindi ako interesado, siya yung nagpaikot ikot ayaw niya tapusin yung usapan, pero nung kailangan ko na talaga tapusin nagalit? ano ba???

Dami tumatawag dito sa office nag aalok ng credit card.

this is what i say to make them uninterested: "walang may credit card dito kasi walang na-a-approve. puro minumum wage kami dito at baon sa utang."

as a rule, dont ever buy from home tv shopping. the products advertised there cannot sell themselves, kaya kelangan pa ng hard sell at celebrity endorsements.

Not only that, after you buy once, these people WILL NOT STOP pestering you to buy additional products. In our experience, buti naman they have the decency not to call during unholy hours, pero nakakairita pa rin. We eventually managed to get them to take us off their call lists, but it took a while.

It's spam that you can hear.

"Faster and better than the leading brand."

If your product is THAT good, bakit hindi kayo ang leading brand???

i would like to purchase a rosehip scar remover, i called HSN kung meron silang money back guarantee, sabi nila approved naman daw ng BFAD yung product at madami na ang gumamit nito at nagsabing it works so wala silang money back... i got 2 scars at my back from an accident, thats why i would want to try the product shown on tv

ako sinubukan ko po yung binebenta sa shopwise, yung eRase, meron silang tester lang P50, so yun binili ko. Effective naman sa bagong peklat ko. Natalsikan kasi ako ng mantika e, tapos maitim yung peklat, ito ngayon hindi na kita. Yung keloid ko din na dating dati pa, elementary pa ako, nabawasan yung umbok, pero meron pa rin, hindi ata effective sa lumang peklat, pati sa stretch marks wa effect din. ewan ko lang din kung tinuloy-tuloy ko, kung eepekto, kasi nung nawala na yung nasa braso ko na peklat e tinamad na akong mag lagay sa iba pang peklat e hehe.

"Faster and better than the leading brand."

If your product is THAT good, bakit hindi kayo ang leading brand???

imo, it would be better for the products to say that theirs is juts like the competitor or the leading brand, so buyers could really choose, for example a new teeth whitening product being compared to crest or oral b, the comparison evident, their main component and ingredients are shown.

much like there are various brands of vitamin C but the generic and the content are 500mg of vitamin C, the buyer will have freedom to choose.

kirkland products are the "generic"or cheaper brand but are patronized well, they do side by side comparison with competiting brands=)

medyo nadaya na naman ako sa jollibee ads regarding the la paz batchoy, when i bought one last night at jollibee nagulat ako mini ang size yung sa tv meal size...

yung mga instant noodles there are fine prints that says serving suggestion, nakakadaya lalo na sa mga pobreng mamimili...

pwede nga reklamo sa dti yan pero next life mona makukuha ang sagot...

andaming nakakalokong info ads at tvc... listerine claims that brushing is not enough thing, i could prove that it is not the mouthwash that renders a cleaner teeth but the effective toothbrushing instead.

mouthwash like that of listerine contains alcohol that that are so potent it could clean your toilet sink, try it to believe...

Wag tayo magbayad pag kumain sa Pizza House..Hintayin nyo magpresinta yung waiter na sya ang magbayad Reklamo nyo sa manager kung walang ibang tao magpresinta magbayad kasi yung sa commercial ay nagaagawan mga tao magbayad and kasama yung waiter.

We had a couple of beautiful slender door to door saleswomen try to sell us a Kirby vacuum cleaner.

I let them in the house so they can demo it. Then when I asked how much, they said the cost was $1800.00

I was tempted to ask if they were included with an all-nighter for the price. But, the wife was there. So, I just told them we couldn't afford it.

$1800.00 for a vacuum cleaner? Yeah, right.

That's the 2nd time we had Kirby salesmen show up at our door.
