HEEL TIPZ (Adcor Products, $2.99 for 3 pairs). According to fashion experts, glamour has returned and the sexy stiletto high- heel shoe is back. Unfortunately, so are the frustration and inconvenience of losing and replacing those tiny rubber heel tips.

With Heel Tipz you can now easily replace the heel tip yourself. Just pull off the old tips with a pair of pliers (if they haven't already fallen out by themselves), and insert the shaft of the new tip into the tip hole. Hold the shoe like a hammer and strike the heel against a hard surface to seat your new heel tips.

Heel Tipz are available in four sizes. You can also get the assorted-size package of Heel Tipz, containing three pairs of three different sizes.
