My wife, bless her heart, seems to always see every infomercial and "as seen on tv" product. Fortunately for our bank account though, she does not buy them. Recently, she and I both saw an advertisement on TV for a new product called the Ped Egg, a foot exfoliate that almost looks like a cheese grater. My wife, being a former athlete who always had to wear cleats, is always looking for a good foot product to help her with her foot calluses.
After seeing the infomercial, especially the part where the Ped Egg didn’t pop the balloon, she commented that she thought that might work well on her feet. Being a proponent of my wife having nice feet and knowing she wouldn’t actually buy it for herself, I went online and bought one after she left the room. I was a little apprehensive at first, I figured if it didn’t work we would get a laugh out of the fact that I bought it, but if it did work I would collect brownie points.
I ordered cheaply (I think it might have been cheaper online?) and securely online, and within days the package came. When I gave my wife the package and told her what it was, she turned a little red and laughed at me.
Flash forward 4 weeks later, she loves it. Both of us are really glad I bought it. It is probably the best and least expensive gift I have bought for her recently (I should shower her with gifts I know). The only complaint she has is that she feels the Ped Egg dries out her feet after using it. But apparently it isn’t anything a little lotion won’t cure.
If you’re a women looking to buy, or a man looking to get his wife/girlfriend a present, this is something you should definitely look into, I am glad I did.
