Been there, tried that.  Sometimes I reach into the kids' college funds and pay for a product myself. Many times, the product arrives in my mailbox and I get to try it without guaranteeing my children will only go to state college. 

I never return products unless its a car loan and well, then it really is a test drive.  Whether I pay for the product or get it for free, these reviews are 100% unbiased. Products are chosen because I can use them in my everyday life.
