I need to experiment a little I guess.
I was in Bed, Bath, Beyond today, and saw a pair of "slippers" that can be put in the micro for warming, or freezer for cooling
feet! I didn't have my coupons with me, or would have gotten a pair for my daughter who always has cold feet. If I remember
correctly, they were $19.99. The part that warms/cools has to
be removed before washing the slipper, and sounds like a good
gift to me.
