I would never have predicted the success this one produced.  My youngest 
daughter presently lives in North Wales, Pennsylvania, and correctly 
suspected my feet and hands get cold and will not heat up without an 
artificial heat source---so she bought me a three-piece pillow set you 
heat in a microwave. One a contoured one you drape over the feet, two 
are mittens for the hands. Contents basically flaxseed and an herbal mix.

The woman who makes and sells them rents a kiosk inside a shopping mall 
for four months each year before Christmas.  In spite of the fact that 
flaxseed has a limited life for this purpose---about three months, this 
home business magnate nets about $50,000 each of the past several 
years---with no  equipment cost other than cutting patterns and a sewing 
machine---doubt she even owns a clicker press.

No competition of course---but who needs that.
