    Leo's "Crap From The Sky Mall Catalog!" Pick Of The Week!

    This week’s Sky Mall gadget is the Viatek My Massage Mobile Massage System. Even though this gadget won as a “Crap from Sky Mall” pick, Leo bought it on Amazon. Why? Because on Sky Mall is it was about $100, and on Amazon it was under $22! Same company, same photo, same device. So why not save more than 75% when purchasing it! The Mobile Massage System is advertised an easy portable way to relieve stress due to daily pressures. The Massage vest has four powerful motors that provide soothing relief to your shoulders and back. “Experience new comfort for your tired aching back and shoulders.” The Massage vest has four different massage settings. You can even select HEAT if you want. And it can be worn, or placed on a seat back. The mobile part comes from the two power adapters that are included. It can be powered by regular AC power via a wall outlet, or powered via 12 volts in your car, via the cigarette lighter connector. That way, the company says you can experience spa-like relaxation right at home, office or car. How did Leo like it? He did. He said it worked well and he could feel the heat when he turned it on. One thing we were all surprised about was the size of the device. In the photo the Mobile Massage System looks like it covers most of a person’s back, but in the studio it was half that size. It’s almost as though the model was a tiny person. $21.95 at the link below on Amazon.
