It is the official policy of Blogma to never (almost) endorse any commercial product, and we always avoid even linking to them (sometimes). But some are simply too good to resist--such as these slippers with built-in headlights.

"Now you can easily walk 'hands free' in darkened areas," according to the manufacturer's brochure. "Step out of the slippers and the lights go off after a delay of a few seconds, allowing you time to return safely to bed."

Between this and the Clapper, what more does one need?
