I know they talked about it on the show a while back, but I found an official list. Has anyone tried any of these?
1) Slap Chop - By slapping this gadget with your palm, you can "dice, chop, and mince in seconds" and remove skins from onions and garlic. "You're going to have an exciting life now," pitchman Vince Shlomi says. Cost: about $20.
2) Magic Jack - Magic Jack, a VoIP (voice over Internet protocol) phone device and service, "makes your monthly phone bill disappear," an online ad says. You plug Magic Jack into a computer's USB port, it uses the Internet to make and receive calls.
3) PedEgg - This foot file removes calluses and dead skin to "make your feet feel smooth and healthy with NO MESS!"
4) Snuggie - The effin backwards robe that I happily returned.
5) Grease Bullet - "Just fill your sink with hot water, drop in the Grease Bullet, and soak your toughest baked-on cookware," the Web site says. "No more scrubbing!"... It's not a vibrator?

6) ShamWow - Last year an ad claimed that ShamWow ("like a chamois, a towel, a sponge; works wet or dry") "holds 20 times its weight in liquid." Now the claim is "12 times its weight."
7) Tyre Grip & AutoSock - Tyre Grip "helps keep you on the road regardless of the road conditions." You spray it on tires and get up to 50 miles per application.
8) Ab Circle Pro - It will "firm and flatten your stomach in just weeks" and "takes just three minutes a day."
9) Debbie Meyer Green Bags - They "prolong the life" of fruits and vegetables by absorbing and removing the ethylene gas they release, which accelerates rotting.
10) Mighty Putty - Mighty Putty is a two-part epoxy that can be applied to "most any surface." It can "support up to 350 pounds,"
