1. I didn't know there was such a thing, but I'll look for one.
Good idea they have.

2. That would mean going to Walmart
That's the only store around me that has them. I may check it out anyway. I already know I have high arches, and I have my best luck with New Balance insoles. They're way more expensive than Dr. Scholl's, but worth every penny.

3. That's where they were in my area. Dr. Scholls' site tells you where they are.

Where did you get New Balance insoles? I may look in to that. I like NB shoes.

4. I have a severe foot problem and have tried several orthotics.
If you find you need arch support or cushioning of the ball of your foot, please check out ProFoot 2oz Miracle Molding Insole. The insole is available in a lot of places but is cheapest at(guess!) Walmart. About $5.00.

I did not know I had flat feet or other foot problems until walking got so painful I went to a Podiatrist. It was surgery or try this type of insole. Long story short. I have used these insoles for over 2 years. I still have the Morton's Neuroma but I can walk with tolerable pain. I have back problems too and this insole has helped that situation greatly.

Good luck.

5. I tried it about a month ago...
It recommended $49.99 inserts for my feet

Needless to say I did not purchase them.

6. Web site said there are no kiosks in my area
That's probably because there are no Walmarts in my area, which is a good thing. :D
