As Seen in Best Buy?

by Administrator on 10-01-2009 05:11 PM

Chances are that if you’ve ever visited one of our retail stores you’ve probably seen one of the end-cap displays near the store’s registers.  They usually have an assortment of goodies on them, ranging from last-chance DVDs and CDs to gift cards and candy.  Well, I recently discovered that some of our stores have introduced a new element to these familiar sights: an “As Seen on TV” section.

That’s right.  Now you can find all sorts of gadgets and last-minute gift ideas that you could previously only see on TV at your local Best Buy store.   Granted, you don’t get the full infomercial experience, but you can still catch a first-hand glimpse of Snuggies (“the blanket that has sleeves”) and Bumpits (“volumizing hair inserts”) before you decide to buy.  BestBuy.com even has its own selection of “As Seen on TV” products that changes on a regular basis:

Surprised?  I know I was when I found out.

What’s your favorite “As Seen on TV” product?

About the Author
  • Computers, video games and TVs have always been fascinating to me. Not only are they wonderful ways to relax, but they’re also immensely useful as tools. Computers allow us to communicate instantly with family members across the country through e-mail, video games allow us to make friends with people across the globe we wouldn’t even meet otherwise, and TVs allow us to see what’s happening in our very own towns…all at the touch of a button. Sure, over time I’ve managed to assemble a collection of other electronic gadgets that would make most people do a double-take, but that just isn’t enough. I want to know how they work. I want to know why they work. I want to know that I can connect every electronic device in my home into a single, fully-functional network that I can access from over 1,000 miles away at the drop of a hat. Not because I have a reason to do so, but because I can. I am a geek, plain and simple.
