    and did you see the shipping and handling charge?..lol

    maybe its different in the us but I looked it up once and they wanted over $100 S&H



    edit..I see now they raised the product price and lowered the s&h...it used to be like $30 for the thing and 100 shipping

    I clicked that link fulling expecting to purchase something that would help me take care of those pesky babies I run into when I go to the mall...

    I was disappointed.

    Don't be dissing the bullets... great little things... although the commercial for the baby bullet really fucking cracks me up...

    "and the best part is, theres a little dial that you can turn to the day you made it so you always know how fresh it is" teehee... I'd so like to smack that woman upside the head...

    After all, until the baby bullet came along with their nifty little dial (that only shows days, not months or years), there was no way to know when you made something...

    I call her names and make fun of her everytime the commercial comes on...

    I know someone who has the regular one and they swear by it. I have never used one.

    I wonder why people would not buy the regular one instead, other than marketing. You could just make the smaller batches you would for a baby.

    You have a point, as I am sure that people can't remember when they cooked those carrots. :)

    When ever I see a new and improved label, it cracks me up. I think legally they should have to say the old one was crap and we are trying again to make you open your wallet! ;)

    Marketing, have to love it.

    I think when they upgrade a product like that, they should have to take the old one back, and only charge the difference in cost for the new one.

    Otherwise, they are directly contributing to the resource use and landfill problems.

    They in turn would have to use landfill to dispose of the old products.

    The only time I have ever experienced a company taking product back and replacing it free of charge was on some baby products. A car seat recall and a crib recall.

    You are going to mess up the whole economic system if you do not stop being so reasonable. ;)

    I get angry at these simple inventions you see on tv because you know they are making a lot money and the idea is always so simple a 3rd grader could come up with it. :(

    A third grader may be able to come up with it but sometimes a 52 year old can not get it to work. :)

    It always looks so easy in the adverts, once home, anything can happen!
