Royal Treatment for your feet

Believe me or not, I am never blessed with luck in any type of lottery drawings. The same applied to the holiday party from work of last year. I didn't win anything from the raffle ticket draw. However, one of my coworkers had won a gift book and passed the prize to me. What it meant, I could choose one of any gifts listed in the book for free. After examining the gift book carefully, I realized that all the gifts listed were pretty useless. Since it's free, I decided to order something and I picked this thing called the "Foot Cozy massager."

Upon the arrival of this massager, I unwrapped it. Here is a discription of how it looks: It looks like a pair of slippers, except they sticked together. It takes two D batteries and when you put your feet and apply pressure onto it, it vibrates. The package also read "ready to give your feet a royal treatment?" And, YES! Viola, I followed the instruction to set it up and decided to give it a try. I sat on a chair and placed my feet onto this "cozy massager" for 10 minutes and didn't feel anything except vibration. To certain extent, I felt more like I was sitting right next to a pavement worker tried to drill a hole on the ground and make the whole construction area shaky.

Prior to writting this blog, I tried to look for a picture of this foot cozy massager on the internet and here's what I found. Someone tried to auction the same product on ebay and the winning bid was US$3.00 ... What a "royal treatment" it is. As a user-critic, I think it's a total rip-off even for three bucks, or in my case, FREE.
