Hubby thought I was crazy when I bought 2 at the Dollar Tree about 6 months ago. BB&B has them for about $10.00. I LOVE A BARGAIN !!! LOL

Looks like something I will need to check out too. Planning to spend a lot more time at my new Viking machine.

I'm gonna go get a couple. Maybe then I can stand to sit in my chairs...... Thanks for the info.

Thanks for the picture. I think I'm going to go to Dollar Tree tomorrow. I need one for the sewing chair and my chair at work.

Wow. That proves it is good to shop around.

Oh my gosh, I can't believe some of the prices that are shown on here. I bought 3 of them last winter at a swap meet in Ariz. for $2 ea. I have one on my chair behind me right now. It works so well for my back. I first saw them from friends who use them in their jeep when they go 4 wheeling. I'm so happy to see you show yours.

Dang! I have company right now and so I may not get a chance to get to the dollar stores. Every time you guys come across a great find it's gone by the time I get there. I'll keep trying.

The Dollar tree in Burlington Iowa gets a shipment in almost every week on Tuesday. They advise you to call ahead and they will save them for you. They sell out every week. I love mine.

Can you possibly post a picture so we know what they look like. Sounds as though they'd be great while sewing. Thanks

Son of a gun! I bought one at the Houston show last year for $10.00 and I don't even use it.

Oh Hon, you should use it! They are God sends! :)

Gotta have! Isnt it funny how when your not working you seem to find all kinds of things you want but cant have. but for a dollar I think I might make it fit in the budget!

leamelon 09-15-2010 03:39 AM

I had tried to use one in the car but it didn't work out there but it's sure good on this rocker.

Does the duct tape come with it? lol -- that is another great invention!!

bjdemir 09-15-2010 08:22 PM

I have had mine for several years. And it is worth every penny paid for it. I have it in my computer chair. I should check to see if it will work on my sewing chair.

zz-pd 09-16-2010 12:08 AM

OK don't laugh, but when I was working, I paid $20.00 for one, and I gave it to my son, because for some reason, with the back injury I have, it caused me more pain. God bless.

Annya 09-16-2010 09:49 PM

My SIL has one in her car, had it for years so I do not know how much she paid for it but I think it would have been more like$20Aus. I have a different kind but works on the same principle. Well do all of you.

I don't recall ever having seen them before this. What is their purpose? I guess I'm missing something. I just gotta get out more.... :lol:

i have these, i guess i've said it on here before, usually theres a caved in place on the lower back of your seat, and this mess rest keeps your back from going into it. and its very comfortable to use.

Deb G 09-27-2010 02:10 PM

Good to know. Thanks!
Now I'm off to Dollar Tree.
