Ice walkers keep you upright

This winter has seen some really nasty ice. Glad I have my ice walkers. I highly recommend them for people who want to stay upright when the going gets slippery.
WalMart carries them, as does Dick's, Eddie Bauer and Target. I can't tell you who has them in stock at any given time.
Some find the ice walkers to be inconvenient, but getting injured in a fall is beyond inconvenient. Once while hurrying to catch the bus to work, I slipped on ice and broke my right thumb. I needed to wear a cast from my thumb to my forearm. I worked in a machine shop and was able to adapt in a clunky way, but it was rough. Nowadays I gladly take the "inconvenience" of avoiding slamming into the ice.
If you want to get them online, look under keywords: ice walkers. They are called a number of different things (e.g., grippers, yaktrax, ice cleats) but "ice walkers" will probably get you the best search results.
