Home shopping stuff
Interesting "as seen on TV" stuff:
1. Reviews of "As seen on TV" products from Popular Mechanics - They review infomercial crap to see if it works as described (pretty funny and very informative).
2. Article from Slate about the Shamwow guy.
3. Finally a video of that guy from the OxiClean commercials trying to get it just right:

Scam job!
8 signs the job you found is a scam:
1. Employer emails filled with typos
2. Emails from job posting site claiming there's a problem with your account
3. They ask for your social security number and bank account number before you've even had a single interview
4. Say you can get rich without leaving your house
5. They want you to give them money upfront
6. Salary and benefits are too-good-to-be-true
7. They want you to wire money via Western Union or Moneygram
8. You found the job on Monster.com, or Craigslist.
