Shopping Networks
October 29, 2005 at 10:18 am | In Shopping | Leave a CommentGreetings world,
Does anyone one but me ever watch these shopping channels and all of a sudden there it is the one thing that until that moment you never realized that you had to have? The one product that will not only make your life wonderful, make you feel good about yourself again but hey you can give it as a gift.
I was sitting at home the other night and thought to myself hey maybe I should turn on the shopping channels and see what they have (especially since I don’t have any gifts for christmas presents yet) for sale. When hey there was this really cool set of ten lip glosses that I thought my daughter would love. So thanks to the really quick world of internet shopping wa la it was comming to my home.
After watching for about two hours on and off and after only buying one item I thought well this was a good night. Didn’t spend too much money and now I have at least one gift to give out for the holiday. So off to bed I went.
But NO there on the screen telling me about what is comming in the next hour was this bed. So soft and just what the whole world needs to make them sleep better. You know how those sales people are. I thought well I might like to watch that so I set it to record.
After being in bed for about an hour I thought that I would wake up (never should have done this) and just for the heck of it I would see what the bed was all about. Hey it was pretty cool but kinda expensive. Maybe it might be great for some but I wasn’t sure. When here comes on this lady saying that she bought one of these and she now can sleep better then she ever has, this other lady says it’s like sleeping on a cloud. Well hey after all that I thought that I should open my other eye and watch more closely. When the channel says you can now have this for five easy payments BUT only until this item goes off the air. In about two minutes then you have to pay then entire amont.
OMG I thought. Gotta have this. So off to the computer I went and Now in three weeks I am going to be on a cloud. The best bed ever made.
But the one thing that kills me now that I am awake the next morning is how the hell am I going to afford this. They are really good salespeople and make these things so great. I just wonder if anybody else has this addiction of watching from our easy chair and spending way too much money. It’s like waking up in the am and having a shopping hang over and running to the internet site and checking you bank account to see just how much money you now don’t have left to pay all the other bills with.
