I have a question now. I make jewelry and have it listed on Etsy. I don't have any luck with Etsy selling any of my things. Have any of you had that problem? Does someone have a web site that sells things that doesn't cost an arm & a leg to join. Most importantly that things really do have the traffic of buyers. I don't know what it is myself and I don't charge over the top for the things I make. I use to list quilted items and they didn't sell either. I'm about to leave Etsy. My jewelry is very pretty and reasonable so let me hear from anyone having the same problems or give me some hints of what you would do or are doing.
Thanks,
jigs

Walgreen's has an entire section devoted to As Seen On TV items. It's fun to look and see things "in person". The Sticky Buddy was there yesterday. Haven't been tempted by it as I use the disposable lint rollers.

They are so great to get the little threads off the design wall. Mine is foam insulation sheets covered with batting and I battled with the threads until I got mine

my mom bought them and she hates them. They worked the first time and never again

Ditto...I didn't like them much.

I bought one at a quilt show before I knew about the "as seen on tv" paid too much but love it

I use the Pledge fur cleanup product. Has 2 rollers and picks up every little thread from ironing board to design wall and everywhere else. Mine is years old, I just empty it and start rolling again. Just saw them at Walmart for under $4.00

I was in Wal-mart yesterday and saw it displayed. Wondered if it was worth $19.99. Glad to hear that it works well. Will have to reconsider.

Bought one at walmart didn't like that you had to wash it very often. Bought one at Hancocks that was self cleaning red
with gray handle not the wash off kind but it works great.
