An Infomercial for Spot Shot Carpet Cleaner

October 1st, 2008

Ah yes…

I love infomercials.  So when I was asked to review Spot Shot, and the kids asked me to video tape the demonstration… I said yes.

It’s not quite as good as the ones on TV, however, I can tell you that the stains came out and even this morning, they haven’t shown back up… nor can I smell the ammonia, which I had no idea why I was even spraying the ammonia until the end.  It’s because this product not only eliminates stains but odors too.

Ammonia has an odor.

Big duh moment.

Captured on video.

Tonight, I’ll be dashing around the house trying it on the rest of the stains that my children have blessed me with because this appears to work better than any of the other stain removers I’ve tried in the past.

So back to the how I got caught part of the story that I started here.

We went grocery shopping one night and I pranced around the store displaying products that I found and asking my brother to play pricing games with me.

While normal children might have been able to play that one off, as in telling your mother that you were just trying to spice up the otherwise boring trip, I couldn’t.

“Watched TV today, didn’t you?” she asked.

The look on my face gave away my guilt before any verbal retort could escape my twelve year old lips.

Busted.

There ended my days of watching the Price is Right.  Sure, we got our TV privileges back, after being grounded from the TV at night as well for awhile, but it was never the same.

But secretly?

I still think it would be cool to be a Barker Babe, even though, the Price is Right has moved on.

For now, I’ll stick with my homemade infomercials and be happy with those, knowing that stardom isn’t on the horizon.

Until next time…

    that video cracked up me. I’d be tickled to see just what got edited out - LOL.

    I’ve used Spot Shot for a while and it’s been quite good. I just might have to check this out for those pet and husband stains ;-)
