I set my cellphone alarm clock at times, but I am generally awake by the time it rings. There was a time in high school when i use an alarm clock and just keep on hitting the snooze button because I am still sleepy though. How about you do you need an alarm clock to wake up?

I use my cellphone alarm clock to wake me up. It's loud enough to wake me up, and not so obnoxious sounding as to scare the crap out of me. It's also something I take with me when I travel, so I never have to worry about different sounding alarm cloks not waking me up.

I set the alarm just in case, but I usually wake up before it goes off which is good because the sound is really annoying. I'm annoyed when that nasty alarm wakes me up, but I know I would be annoyed if it didn't. All in all, it's a lose /lose situation for the poor alarm clock.

I set my alarm clock, but I have never really needed to use it in years. I don't sleep very well and usually my back hurts after laying down for about 7 hours or so. So, I'd guess I would say that my back pain wakes me up. But, I think if I just get enough potassium right before I go to bed, my back won't hurt. I usually wake up well before the alarm goes off.

Not every day. Only on the morning when I have to take a very early flight. like 6 o'clock departure. Then I have to get up at 4 in the morning,I need the alarm clock set. On the weekends , I keep the alarm clock totally out of site ! Ha ha !
