plastic NOR rubber. It is an extraordinary impact absorbing
resin material developed for maximum cushioning. Its closed

growth and are nontoxic. This versatile material can be worn
next to skin and can be cleaned with just soap and water. (2)
Why) I went to the outlet mall because I was looking for a pair of sandals and I ended up purchasing a pair of crocs very similar to the ones described above. That was not the most interesting part of the trip though. As I was wandering around the mall, I was approached by a charming Israeli man who was selling facial creams from one of those mid-aisle mall booths. Much to my surprise, I ended up purchasing a $30 container of cream. Personally, I did not see much value in the cream, even though I ended up occasionally using and enjoying it. I was really paying him for the sales pitch. You see, ever since I took a summer job selling vacuum cleaners door to door, I have had an appreciation for a good sales pitch. His was top notch and I really enjoyed the experience of listening to it.
