No More Pricey Pedicures with PedEgg

Andrea wrote us yesterday wanting to let us (and our readers) know about a way to save money by not getting expensive pedicures.  She suggests a PedEgg to remove dry callous skin (eww) and better maintain your tootsies for a low one time price of $9.99.  These can be found at Bed, Bath & Beyond, Walmart, Target and CVS and might make a great stocking stuffer for that person who loves the indulgence of foot pampering.

PeddEgg

This “ultimate foot file” has a battery operated motor that vibrates the skin on your feet, catches anything that rubs off and fits well in your hand.  Another handy accessory might be the Pampered Toes spray available as well.

Check out the instructions, and keep in mind that while it sounds kind of goofy (and maybe a little gross) it still has to be cheaper than having this done by a “professional” at a pedicure salon.  Commercial and “Try Before You Buy” from a news station below.  Consumer Reports also weighs in.

If you are feeling skeptical or find this sort of thing completely “out there” and you have read down this far, I have a little bonus suprise for you.  Hilarious vid of MoRocca and his PedEgg, enjoy!

Can’t you do the same thing with a pumice stone and no batteries (and less than $10)? I’ve had my pumice stone for 15 years and it’s still going strong! I just leave it in the shower and once a week I run it across my feet.

I still need the pedicure since I am lousy with the polish. Have used this for a couple of years before it came out mass marketed. Mine are black and recently got the white “womens” version for my birthday. So now I have three. The white doesn’t work as well or maybe I just have Hobbit feet. In my state, it is against the law for a pedicurist in a salon to “shave” any dead skin so you will still need the bucks for that! :0.

I have the PedEgg minus the battery and vibration. I just move mine back on forth on my own.

I suppose I could have just gotten a pumice stone, but those have always creeped me out a bit haha.
