• Lab tests

• Before/After
• For everyone
• Can't live without the product

Project due 25/03/2013 in class.  In groups of 2 or 3 you need to make an infomercial to present in front of the class using one of these products.  Make sure to follow the structure of the infomercial that we discussed in class.  Each person needs to speak equally and you will be graded by myself and by your peers in class.
