Your Turn: Ever bought something off an infomercial?

It was Saturday morning, early. I had just woken up and was clearing the sleep out of my eyes while devouring some grapefruit and a piece of toast. This morning, like all lazy weekend mornings, I switched on the TV while I ate. And what's usually on the tube on a Saturday morning? You guessed it--Infomercials.

But whatever you blame it on, the fact is my defenses were down and I did something completely out of character. I bought something from one of the infomercials.
