The Shopping Bags (tv show)
« on: May 02, 2007, 04:20 PM »
I can't believe i'm posting this, but damn it this show has won me over, so please forgive me!

It's sort of a low budget consumer reports show, and they strike just the right tone.
Hosts are smart and non-nonsense too. I'm impressed! (It's also a rare show that a couple could really enjoy together).

Recent shows have compared: cigars, t-shirts, garbage bags, cake mixes, and so on.

Looks like the show could be interesting, but the website is a pain.  In the review section, for instance, you have to click on multiple links to read small blurbs of text that probably add up to a page or less of information.  Also, there are a lot of errors throughout the reviews.  For example, in the coffee beans review, I found this sentence:

For the freshest espresso, buy whole beans. That means you'll either have to buy a grinder.
