I saw a bunch of these at Kmart today. Now I admit I didn't stop to see what they were all about or how they worked BUT... Have we gotten so lazy that we can't even use our own two hands to make a snowball!? I mean really, how hard is it? You scoop up some snow, pack it together and voila...a snowball. It doesn't take a rocket scientist or a brain surgeon. Or is this just more proof of consumerism? If it's there we will buy it. No matter how ridiculous or unnecessary it is. What's your take on the automatic snowball makers? What other unnecesarry products can you think of?

in a way you are so right about how lazy can people be,but i do think think this is great for your kids and animals that enjoy the snow,where you hate the cold and dont feel like making the snowballs yourself.i hate the cold so this would be great for me lol.

You do have a good point about making it easier for kids, I hadn't thought of that! I think it was a handheld thing...kind of like an ice cream scooper type thing so animals couldn't use it but what you had in mind sounds like a great idea! Maybe something like a batting machine only with snowballs...I could have fun with that!
