Anyone have one? Don't lie now! I see this ad on tv about 5times a day!

No, but I'm wondering where they got that Vince character. He's doing another commercial now too. Doing it for slap chop.

That kid Vince...he's the next Billy Mays.

He'll be so annoying you'll avoid any product they pimp like the plaque, just out of principle.

Those shammies have been around for a very long time. I remember my dad buying one back at one of the first auto shows I went to when I was about 10 yrs old, which is about 20 yrs ago. So I don't know why is it that this crackheaded looking douchebag acts as if this is the first time that this product is on the market.

Just so you know, Billy Mays sells the SAME exact product, same commercial format, but it's called Zorbeez.....with X27 fiber technology

I have them.

I use them to clean up water spills or by my front door when we walk through the snow and it leaves a big puddle inside when the snow melts off our boots.

Like anything else it, it doesnt work like it does on TV, but I use them a lot instead of wasting a paper towel. Its cool cuz u just throw them in the wash when they get dirty, but after you do that a few times they start to look a little fuzzy. Overall though, I got my 19 bucks out of them (Got them at Walgreens)

Do they work better than a regular towel?

No no no, get your head out of the gutter.

I know trini and brembo are fond of them in the AM but I just need them for drying the dogs when they come in out of the rain.

Thinking 5 dogs (head out of gutter), 4 of them getting toweled off when they come in out of the rain 4 months out of the year, also getting the floor wet like Meggie mentioned.

Ditto!

But from the YouTube vids I'm not too worried about buying anything. I already have a spray bottle and rag and they clean up just about everything.

Safe to say that Billy Mays does not like that guy.

Billy Mays is entertaining when not selling something.
