File Under: Things we wish we'd thought of first ...


Two new start-up companies in Britain are on to something: Vending machines that dispense ballet flats. Now women can ditch their stilettos for something cute and comfortable after a night on the town. Selling at about $10, sales are brisk.

Matt Horan, founder of Rollasole had what he calls his Eureka Moment "After getting tired of giving my girlfriend a piggyback home every Saturday night."

We could use these vending machines in the U.S. -- in every trade show lobby!
