Have you bought or seen a product that seems oversold or makes claims (advertised on TV or some informercial) that seem ridiculous and later found out that the product really works.
I saw this product on late night cable: http://www.pedegg.com/creamindex.htm...75B9A367B6B1B2
My wife later bought one at the Bed, Bath and Beyond store to see if it could help my feet due to me wearing flip flops all the time.
Yep, works like a charm.
I also saw these at Home Depot. http://www.robogrip.com/products01.html
Bought a set of them on impulse. Now I always have them on hand whenever working around the house.
What's your story? |

Yes yes, I know Jessica Simpson endorses it along with other crappy female artists, you all have permission to point and laugh at me for using it, withdraw my man-card, whatever. But it really, really works! You can see the difference in days.

You put them in the dryer and they tumble around keeping the clothes separated.
Turns out, they actually work! |

Couple years ago I saw some for sale at the pharmacy, got it fo a stiff shoulder, and now I swear by it. Beats Icy Hot and Ben-Gay all to hell.

The spray can is available at most ACE Hardware stores. Amazing stuff for removing adhesives, oil and grease stains. We keep a can of it in the garage and another in the laundry room.
Absolutely wonderful, handy stuff.

as for products that really work... walking socks (the ones with 2 layers to them), haven't had a blister since I started hiking in them.
also, a *good* pair of earphones. literally made listening to my mp3 player tolerable for me!
