I'm on my feet all day on a concrete floor, hauling appliances across a football-field-sized home improvement store and my feet were KILLING me.  I was desperate for some better cushioning and read a few reviews of these socks but was still skeptical about whether they were worth the money.  They're just socks, after all.

They are so worth it.

The extra padding in the heel and toe area make a world of difference.  I hate the price (HATE!) but I have to bite the bullet on this one because I *have* to be able to move comfortably (and fast) at work, and throbbing aching feet do not help with that.  These socks will.

If you insist on being a cheapskate then just buy ONE pair and test them out (like I did.)  After wearing them once I went back online and purchased several more pair.  I'm grateful I found these because it makes my work day a little bit easier.
