Read This Before you Buy Helicage Helicopter

I just saw an infomercial for a toy that I absolutely have to have called the Helicage Helicopter.  Heli cage helicopter is a remote control helicopter that has two rings around it to protect it and stop it’s blades from getting jammed and falling out of the air.  I am absolutely obsessed with remote control toys (not that kind, this isn’t the gay honeymoons section) that fly like the Helicage Helicopter so when I say one that won’t get jammed or fall because it runs into things I had to have it.   Although I haven’t bought a Helicage Helicopter yet, what I want to know is if it is as cat friendly as the other ones I have bought in the past.

One problem I’ve had is that if I forget to put the remote control helicopter away, the cat will go after it because it is obviously his toy.  I was hoping that with this new as seen on tv heli care helicopter the blades may be a bit stronger and that the rings may make it more difficult for a cat to get through.  Then I realized that the rings only cover two small areas and cats can easily get their paws onto the blades still.  Besides being cat friendly, there were a couple of things I noticed in the infomercial I saw for the as seen on tv helicage helicopter.

The first thing is that they didn’t talk about a flight time or battery life after you charge it.  I’m assuming it will be like most of the other remote control helicopters.  The second thing is that they didn’t talk about speed or accuracy of flight.  The reason I like these remote control helicopters so much is that they are fun for my cat and also to mess with my friends.  Because the helicage helicopter has the two rings protecting it, I would assume it will be easier to guide, but how accurate is the steering?  The last thing I noticed about the infomercial for the heli cage helicopter is that it didn’t have a price.  I am assuming it will be around the same price as most of the other as seen on tv helicopters.

Anyways, I haven’t bought or ordered the Helicage Helicopter as seen on tv yet, but I am probably going to since I did promise my cat a new toy.  If you have although bought or are going to buy helicage helicopter, please feel free to leave a comment below because I am curious to know how well it works.  Click here to buy helicage helicopter.

Get Eggies As Seen On TV – I love these!

Filed under: As Seen On TV — Tags: , , — rollerbladerdc @ 6:19 pm


I just saw a commercial for Get Eggies or something like that.  This is an awesome invention in my opinion because I absolutely hate peeling shells off of hardboiled eggs when I am making deviled eggs or egg salad for summer picnics because it takes a while and wastes time.  What’s nice about Get Eggies as seen on tv is that they take the hard part out since all you have to do is pour the egg inside of the molds and then boil the molds so that there is no shell.  I do have to tell you that I do not own get eggies right now, but this is something I probably will end up buying.  So here is what I am loving about the Get Eggies as seen on tv egg cooker.

1.  No more shells.  Like I said above, the thing I hate most about having to cook with eggs is the shells.  By not having to peel shells you’ll not only save time, but you’ll save embarrassing looks if you accidentally miss one and someone eats it.

2.  The Eggies whites separator.  Separating whites is a pain as we all know.  The commercial for eggies looks like it comes with a whites separator which makes this product even more tempting to buy.  Now you can more easily make a ton of desserts that need whites because the easy separator.  Not to mention the slicer and other things that come with Eggies from the commercial on tv.

3.  The flat bottom.  If you have ever had to make a meal or appetizer and had to stand them up, you know it can be a pain.  That’s why many people slice them in half and leave them lower to the plate.  Because Eggies have a flat bottom you can now stand them vertical and make a million different designs.  You can pipe on colors, use a larger or taller filling and frosting and you can also get even more creative and slice it to do taller intricate designs by using the center and cool looking hollowed out part of the egg.

I absolutely love the thought behind eggies, but since it is easy to boil eggs and this product looks legit, I would probably say that this would be a good product to buy.  As long as the eggs don’t end up sticking to the molds.  That would be my biggest concern with Eggies.  If you have bought eggies or know someone who has, feel free to share how much you loved or hated eggies or if eggies works like the infomercial shows by leaving a comment below.

Bullet Express As Seen On TV

Filed under: As Seen On TV,Wedding Gift — Tags: , , — rollerbladerdc @ 10:13 pm

If you cannot tell I get completely hooked on all things As Seen On TV.  Because wedding gifts are usually housewares and appliances, when I saw the infomercial running for Bullet Express I instantly thought that it may make the perfect wedding gift since it is not only cool, but it is seriously multifunctional and because the infomercial got me hooked.

Bullet Express Food Processor As Seen On TV

The Bullet Express is the brand new and fabulous food processor you’ve seen on tv. Not only is it created by the same people who brought us another favorite As Seen On TV product, the Magic Bullet, but the Bullet Express food processor is even more versatile and can help you to prepare countless numbers of oven and cooking ready meals in 8 minutes or less. That is why the Bullet Express is also known as the 8 minute meal machine. So what can your Bullet Express do and why would you want one?

Bullet Express slices food.

One thing that I love about the Bullet Express and that I had seen in the infomercial is that it slices just about everything. The Bullet Express slices mushrooms and shreds cheese for pizza. It can slice your vegetables for salads and even slice up chicken for stirfrys. Slicing food not only takes forever when you have to do it with a knife and by hand, but when you have to slice and chop onions, your eyes pay the price as well. Take the work and the smells out of slicing fruits, vegetables and meats and start enjoying oven ready foods like pizza in 8 minutes or less.

Bullet express makes dough.

You can actually use your BulletExpress machine to combine and blend ingredients together to make your favorite doughs. You can use the BulletExpress to combine the ingredients for pizza dough so after you prep the dough you can set it in the fridge to get it ready and while that is prepping you can use your BulletExpress machine to start slicing your favorite topping and shred your favorite pizza cheeses so that you can make almost the entire pizza from scratch with just one machine. You’ll still need the oven to cook it though.

Not only does the BulletExpress make pizza dough, but it also preps bread dough, you can mix together pie dough and basically almost all other types of doughs and I am also guessing pastry doughs so that you can enjoy your day instead of having to spend hours blending and mixing ingredients together.

Desserts.

Did you know that you can also use your Bullet Express Food Processor to make desserts. Ok, well not actually cook them but you can put in apples so that they shoot out right into the apple pie pan. You can also use it to slice up your favorite fruits and food toppings for your ice cream sundays and even slice up fruits for the toppings of tarts and fancy cakes. Almost every pastry or dessert tastes better with fruit so you can use your Bullet Express food processor to prep and slice your fruit for your favorite desserts.

Meatloafs and more.

One thing that most food processors cannot do or at least do well is chop up entire turkey breasts and blend it with seasonings and other ingredients to create family favorites like rosemary turkey meatloaf. Just drop the turkey breasts and seasonings into the Bullet Express food processor and be ready to enjoy an oven ready turkey and rosemary meatloaf in under 8 minutes (according to the Bullet Express infomercial at least). You can also use it to mix together your favorite burgers and flavors for grill outs and grilling or even grinding up chicken breasts to make chicken burgers and other chicken dishes.

There are tons of Bullet Express recipes out there and if you have your own favorite Bullet Express recipe and want to share it, you can leave the Bullet Express recipe here in the comments section.

Where can you Buy Bullet Express?

You can Buy Bullet Express around the world now. Bullet Express has recently become available in the UK, Australia, Canada and even Scandinavia.  My preference is to always shop through Amazon for these things because you can usually find a great price regardless if you are looking for products like the Bullet Express UK or USA or Austrailia.

Although I don’t own my own Bullet Express yet, I cannot wait to Buy one for myself, I just have to wait for my current food processor to break. I think after seeing the infomercial one more time it might accidentally fall off the kitchen counter and I may end up having to buy Bullet Express for myself.

Yo Baby Skateboard As Seen On TV Infomercial

So normally people don’t think about how to keep the kids away from tables and occupied while the grownups want to enjoy dinner at a wedding.  Things like ordering or renting a large screen TV and a Nintendo Wii machine work, but also cause fights when kids don’t want to share.  You also end up with the adults leaving to go play as well.  That’s why when I was watching tv today and saw the infomercial for a new As Seen On TV product called My Yo Baby Skateboard Lessons, I instantly thought ideal solution for keeping the kids occupied and out of your hair at a wedding.

Not only is the Yo Baby As Seen On TV skateboard lessons kit perfect for kids because it not only keeps kids entertained but also teaches them to skateboard a lot safer than on a real skateboard and since the Yo Baby Skateboard is inexpensive you can let them all take them home to continue to practice learning how to skateboard.  My Yo Baby Skateboards come in a ton of colors like pink, black, yellow, green and blue and they are also small enough that you can easily transport them with you to the wedding reception and place them all in front of the TV where you’ll have the Yo Baby Skateboard Lessons DVD waiting in the player.  Not only will they be focused on learning how to do skateboarding tricks like a Yollie or a 360, but the My Yo Baby As Seen On TV Skateboard lessons and kit will also teach them to do a kickflip and walk the board, all without the dangers of having to be on a real skateboard with wheels.

When I was a little kid I had always wanted to learn how to skateboard but since my dad was a doctor and saw a ton of skateboarding accidents he would never let us have them or ride on them.  I remember one time I was sitting on my friends skateboard and we took turns riding it down the street like a toboggan and he almost died.  The look on his face was completely worth  the yelling that followed about how dangerous skateboards are and when thinking about it today, I was going down a road with cars and wasn’t wearing any pads.  Anyways, regardless of how dangerous skateboards are, virtually all sports have their issues and dangers and as long as you practice, learn and wear protection like a helmet they can also be great forms of exercise, teach you balance and motor skills as well as keep your entertained for hours each day.  I also think that if we would have had a product like the My Yo Baby Skateboard and if the infomercial for the My Yo Baby As Seen On TV skateboarding kit would have been around, my Dad may have had a second thought about allowing us to ride a skateboard and allow us to learn how since the My Yo Baby Skateboarding kit not only teaches you on a fake skateboard without wheels and on the safety of your carpeted floor vs. hard cement or asphalt out side.

I personally love the thought of buying a few My Yo Baby skateboarding kits for the kids at a wedding so that while the parents and the grownups want to enjoy dinner and listen to the speeches, they can be off in a side room learning how to ride a skateboard and learning how to do skateboarding tricks and keeping themselves occupied in a way that won’t cause a fight and something that is affordable enough that they can all take their own My Yo Baby Skateboards home with them.  You can Buy My Yo Baby Skateboard by clicking any of the links in the Amazon banner at the top.  Buy Yo Baby Skateboarding kits As Seen On TV and help keep your wedding about you, instead of about the kids who are attending and wanting to yell and scream.
