    I found a remedy for always having to chase my foot control ! I found these round gripper pads at the dollar tree store . 4 to a pack for $1.00 . They work great !!! Exact size for my foot control . Will not slip on carpeting , I didn't try them on a bare floor . Annie

    Good idea :!: I chase my foot control all over the hardwood floor :evil: And ~ I have some of this stuff left over from lining my camper shelves. Now - where did I put it? :shock: :shock:

    I moved to a home with laminate floors and when unpacking found a scrap from shelf lining and it works very well. Great tip.

    That's a great idea! I'm tired of chasing too, so I'm going to look for these.
