ShamWow



Hi, it's Vince with Shamwow! You'll be saying wow every time you use this towel! It's like a chamois! It's like a towel! It's like a sponge. A regular towel doesn't work wet - this works wet or dry. This is for the house, the car, the boat, the RV! Shamwow holds twenty times its weight in liquid. Look at this! It just does the work! Why do you want to work twice as hard? It doesn't drip, doesn't make a mess. You wring it out, wash it in the washing machine. It is made in Germany, you know the Germans always make good stuff. You can cut it in half, use one as a bath mat, drain your dishes with the other one, use one as a towel. Olympic divers, they use it as a towel. Look at that! Completely dry! Put a wet sweater, roll it up, it dries your sweaters. Here's some cola, wine, coffee and pet stains. Not only is the damage gonna be on top - there's your mildew. That is going to smell! See that? The most absorbing We're gonna do this in real time! Look at this! Put it on the spill, turn it over! Without even putting any pressure, fifty percent of the cola right there. You follow me, camera guy? The other fifty percent, the color starts to come up. No other towel's gonna do that! It acts like a vacuum! And look at this - virtually dry on the bottom! See what I'm telling ya? Shamwow! You'll be saying wow every time!

Hopefully I'm not the only one who is familiar with the ShamWow Commercial. Shaun loves it, for some insane reason, and has taken it upon himself to memorize the whole thing. I had to include the actual dialogue to the commercial so that you can have a bit of a clue of what he's saying. He speaks so quickly and unclear that there's places where even I don't have any idea what he's yammering about.

That is one of the greatest things that I have ever seen. Fantastic. Has he seen the newer Vince chop-o-matic commercials yet? He'll probably love those as well.

Karen, yeah the Slap Chop? He likes them but says they're not as good as ShamWow. We saw Shamwow in Canadian Tire yesterday (sort of like Walmart) and he nearly had a fit. "Oh my gosh Mum, look it's the Shamwow! You'll be saying Wow every time you use this towel." People were looking as us sideways. :P
