What about the shake on hair they used to sell?

Was that anything like Shake n' vac?

Shake no vac

I know nowt of what happens behind the scenes but, in the main, I would doubt it.

A couple of them have claimed this but I have seen the items with other presenters so perhaps just the order. They also claim the post midnight show is cheaper but can't verify it

'I demanded to the producer that I do this show. I wanted to be the one to launch this small plastic tabletop Japanese garden ornament for you, £9.99 and on 25 flexis. I also negotiated the low price, down from the £10.20 they wanted to launch it at ...'

tbh call me a cynic, I don't believe anything they say.

I'm going to have the song from the advert in my head all day now

Do some presenters get to choose there Items to sell

As Peter has the Vibraplate and Bladeless fan on later

Probably not, but they often make these claims maybe to boost their importance within the company to the viewer. And it makes the product sound good if they say they specifically asked for it.

And of course if Peter has anything fitness related he can wear those grubby blue shorts that gets his fan club over excited

Currently enjoying Pete’s Masterclass with the Rug Doctor Hard Floor Cleaner. He has inadvertently slagged off the Mop he sold recently. Guess what he has coming up at 21.00? Yup, Aqua Laser Self Wringing Mop.

Where are these Opatra products on the Harrods website? Apparently they sell them on there? No sign when you look. Or is it just in-store where they retail them there?

Basically, if the 'price' (or 'final price' on TJC) is the same as it has been on the website, then the presenter is lying about negotiating the price down.
Like you I don't believe a word they say. Sadly there will be viewers who do.

Blimey, they've let Natalia away from her desk!

What was it Jack Nicholson told Tom Cruise again? I think they have a similar issue dealing with it.

They’re not available on the website, only in store in the technology department. Apparently.

I saw a stand for them in Westfield Shepherds Bush on Sunday. Not a shop but one of those counters in between the shops.

They had no customers and were trying to attract customers in an assertive manner. One caught my eye as I was passing and he tried to approach me but I wasn't having that.
