How To Obtain Those 6 Pack Abs-Infomercial Gadgets

I wish I had a bigger house and more money, because if I did I would have 1 or even 2 exercise rooms filled with stuff I bought off infomercials. Armed with these fat burning, easy to use with little effort, take off the inches machines, I would be guaranteed or my money back to lose weight and look like the guy on the Bowflex commercial.
One early morning about 5:00 AM I was flipping through channels and decided to stop on all the channels that said Paid Programming. Did you know that for $24.95 you can buy a house for $300.00, or get free long distance for $19.95? I asked myself since when is $19.95 free. Become a millionaire off the internet, buy Wordsmart reading and go to Harvard. For 3 easy payments of $19.95, will they pay my tuition? My all time favorite was a pill which is guaranteed to make a certain part of the male body bigger, and I don’t mean your chest.
But I digress, back to my Exercise Room. It would start with a large screen TV, the biggest Plasma TV I could find. When I am dancing away the pounds to Hip Hop Abs, I want to do it in high definition.
My current repertoire of exercise equipment, a stability ball, medicine ball, exercise bands, a few dumbbells, my elliptical, and fake Bowflex (it’s a Schwinn, but looks like a Bowflex) would have to be upgraded to something much more expensive.
Here is my Wish List;
Bowflex
The centerpiece of the new exercise room is a Bowflex. Actually I need 2 Bowflex’s. The Bowflex Ultimate 2 Home Gym at $2499 & the Bowflex Treadclimber at $3499 to replace my old Elliptical. Throw in the Selectech 220 Dumbbells at $149 and I am done in the Bowflex section.
Total Gym
With Chuck (Walker Texas Ranger) Norris & Christie Brinkley pushing this machine, I need it. The Total Gym XLS is $1648
The Fluidity Bar
It’s just a bar, but you can do a lot with it. Cost $239
The Ab Rocket
It’s like a massage while you work out. A 30 day trial for $14.95. Be leery on the commercials that don’t give you a price up front. If it’s a 30 day trail it probably expensive. This one wasn’t too bad, in addition to the $14.95, 3 easy payments of $39.95, total $134.00.
Contour Sculpting System
It’s a belt around your abs that is supposed to work your ab muscles. You sit around and you lose inches. Cool. Now I need a couch in the Exercise Room. Cost $1000 for the couch. $199.00 for the belt
Ab Coaster
This one is bizarre, but I need it. At $1299, it better work
Pilates Power Gym
If it has Pilates in the name, it’s good. A bargain at $349.
All items have free shipping, but a nominal handling fee, which is a mystery until you get the bill.
Add in the Plasma TV for $2000 and a $100 to upgrade my Ball collection. The total price for my new Infomercial Room is $13,000. That’s 657 easy payments of $19.95 and that doesn’t include the new house.
Let my go ask my wife!
