Greatest invention EVER!

Last winter I picked up this pill remover for sweaters at Bed Bath and Beyond because I hated those little pills that gathered on my sweaters. When I saw this little guy I just had to have him!

When I bought it we were just getting done with sweater season so I hadn't had a chance to use it. Now that I am wearing sweaters again, this thing is like magic! It makes sweaters look brand new!!!! I'm so obsessed with it, it's almost always in my purse! If you don't have one, you should get one! I think I bought mine for something between $10-$20.

Has anyone ever used one of these things before?

No, but I need one!! Probably would make a great stocking stuffer, huh?! A pink one!

My Mom had one when I was a kid and I used to LOVE it. It eventually totally died and I haven't been able to find one since. Sad.

Then again I totally don't think I actually own very many sweaters that pill. I do have one or two though.

Yep, my mom had one of these when we were growing up. I should get one now that we are getting into sweater season!!

Apparently, everyone's Mom had one of those! Mine did, too, and she gave it to me. I use it every winter, have used it for many years... and it's the strangest thing - the batteries have never run out.

Of course, since I wrote that, the next time I use it I'm sure they will be depleted.

I NEED THIS! My sweaters always look wrecked. Thanks for letting us know.

I bought in one high school because I felt it was something I absolutely NEEDED to have. I still have it, and do use it sometimes, but I'm not sure I needed it as much as I thought. Although I'm sure if I lived somewhere colder it would be different.

I'll have to check this one out. The one I have is a piece of crap and doesn't do anything to get the pills off my sweaters. I will definitely be stopping Bed Bath and Beyond to pick up this little beauty!

Oh yeah, I have an award for you on my blog!

I have the little comb but I am always scared to use it, like it's going to pull a thread or something? Hey that Pandora is so cool! I have never heard of it. LOVE IT!!! :)
