Were you disappointed or happy with your purchase?
I bought some red copper cookware (a sandwich press, a small pan). I like it. It does seem to cook things well and it is easy to clean.
No, I never bought anything from an infomercial.
However, way back when dinosaurs ruled the earth (I'm talkin' 1963), I bought the following product from an ad in the N.Y. Times ...

I was 11 years old at the time, and $4.99 was a rather big investment. Plus, it was not available in a store. I had to send the money in before the product was shipped.
That being said, there was actually a benefit from this purchase, as I learned about binary numbers at a young age.
And now I'm left to wonder why my HP laptop looks nothing like my good old DigiComp.
Speaking of my laptop, I hope that someone here can help with a problem.
For the past two weeks, I have been unable to burn a cd from a playlist on my iTunes library.
The disc starts to burn, but when I get to either the last song or the second to the last song, the burning stops, the cd drawer opens and the following message appears ...

The attempt to burn a disc failed.
An unknown error occurred.

Does anyone here know what this is and how I can remedy the situation? Btw, this laptop operates on Windows 10.
Thanks.
I'm fairly sure I remember that toy. Takes me back to the time we sent in cereal box tops along with a little money to get promotional items. And Johnson Smith ads in comic books. I sent away for a few things. The ultimate was the submarine but I never got that. A few practical jokes like snappng gum. Toy soldiers that turned out to be tiny cheap plastic things.
I don't use iTunes but noticed that if you put

into google you will get several responses.
Back in the 90's my family used to love to buy infomercial products, and they were all pretty legit and useful. We bought the George Forman's Lean Mean Fat Reducing Machine, which was pretty revolutionary at the time. We used it for many years for burgers when it was too cold to grill outside.
My mom bought the Ab Roller and actually still uses it today in her 60's.
The ab roller was a good product, and I forgot to mention it in my earlier post. I bought the one demonstrated by Brenda Dygraf which I think was the first, many clones came later. The most worthless ab product I bought back in the 90's was the Ab Flex. Not the belt, the thing you press into your gut. I still think it s a good idea, but it didn't generate enough resistance and was way overpriced.
shareI bought a can of Flex Seal.
