Beamz Play the Light As Seen on TV Gimmick

December 8th, 2011

I saw this new As Seen on TV product called Beams. They have a little slogan that says, “Play the Light”.

This is a product you play by swiping your hand between two devices and when it senses the motion it plays recorded music.

Since your simply getting recorded music composed by someone else to play by karate chopping the air it seems simply stupid.

I would buy it as a Christmas elephant gift but it is way above the $10 gift limit for that. This total gimick of a music instrument will cost you $200.

I have a hard time believing this will be a profitable TV-Mercial product but the Fushigi Ball and I-Renew bracelet both totally proved me wrong.

Tuesday Morning Store in Tyler Offers Excellent Christmas Gift Selection

December 2nd, 2010

Tuesday Morning Stores TexasFor those like me that may have never heard of Tuesday Morning before it isn’t a big surprise. This store seems to open up when they want to and probably just during those certain shopping days that bring in lots of traffic. So they aren’t like Marshall’s where they are open every day.

I guess Tuesday Morning has a low overhead policy but it must work as I have seen their sign over by Cotton Patch Cafe for several years.

This store always looked closed and abandoned but one Sunday morning we were nearby and I yanked at the door and to my surprise the door opened and there were tons of Christmas gift ideas almost everywhere I looked.

I also found some pretty ridiculous white elephant type gifts to get as well. This store is like a cheaper Marshall’s but with more selection and variety. They aren’t necessarily like Marshall’s in the sense of having lots of clothes but they are like them in their never ending supply of odds and ends.

For instance, last year I was able to purchase from Marshall’s an alarm that would sound if a dog jumped and laid down on a couch or chair in your house. I saw this as both funny and useful for certain people in my family.

Tuesday Morning store has all kinds of weird stuff like this and good stuff too. They have toys, rugs, clothes, sheets, towels, furniture type items, Christmas decorations like big Santa statues and many things you would never buy but they are fun to look at.

I bought a few fun to look at items that will be white elephant gifts this year. So if you are reading this maybe you haven’t come up with any Christmas 2010 gift ideas and maybe your a procrastinator.

Tuesday Morning can come to your rescue and relieve your stress because they have everything for mom, dad, kid, toddler, sister, brother, emo brother, brother in jail, grandmother, granddad, and wife, and husband, I guess cousin too.
