    ..and wondering if anyone has for comfy pairs, and washable?

    Here's some I found online, says Doctors recommend for arthritis, raynauds etc, which I have a little of both, and my hands gets pretty cold in the a.m.'s I don't use my heat because it's more comfy to put my warm bathrobe on, and off, in time with my hot-flashes I still have ;)

    Any feedback welcome but I do need to be able to type, that's a must :D

    Here's one pair I found and these come in x-small which my hands are pretty dinky:

    I'll be looking at Walmart to so I could hopefully find some to try on ;) or may Big 5, I forgot about them.

    I used to wear fingerless gloves when I was riding my bicycle a lot, so check Walmart's cycling section when you're there.

    Oh dang, that's a great idea!! They're usually a bit less than Big 5 ;) I have the leather-palmed workout gloves but they aren't warm, or comfy;)

    I have bought the Isotoner open finger gloves from Amazon. They are compression gloves and can be purchased for just one hand. I bought one glove to try on my lymphedema hand and it was comfy but not very pretty to look at. CLICK!

    Yes. They are compression gloves so they fit snugly.

    Ok, because I've heard of the compression socks, and they were awful for an elderly friend of mine. He had edema though, and I also don't know the brand of his sock. I just need flexible and if you can type with them comfortably, I will order a pair, if I don't find some here in town, which that would be a miracle ;)

    You might check Walmart's website to see what they have.

    Dollar Tree has brown cloth gloves with a grippy palm for $1.25. Grab your scissors and you're in business. Sadly, I need them too in the winter.

    I guess that’s the same as Cheap as Chips in Australia or we have others called Reject shop but they are a bit more upmarket than cheap as chips @Ed Wilson CAC is not as cheap as it used to be I can buy stuff almost the same in Kmart cheaper than CAC

    I ended up going by Walmart to kill some time and found 2 pair of gloves for 1.00, so decided for now, these would work, and I snipped off the finger-tips ;) I do want to get a nice pair though and will keep looking as I didn't make it down to our Big 5. We also have a tractor supply and home depot, but kinda doubt I'll find what I need there, maybe Rite Aid ;)

    these are working for warmth anyway:

    LOL :) Yes, but they are starting to unravel already because of my busy, little fingers :p That's ok and I sure like the sound of the ones that I think are Isotoner's, doctor recommended for arthritis, raynauds, etc. I would think those would be warm as well ;)

    good mornin btw, I think you are a couple or three hours ahead of me. I slept, off and on of course, but didn't get up until a quarter to 7!! That's kind of sleeping in for me :)

    All you need now is a shopping cart full of junk and the ability to ramble incoherently, and you're in business!

    And I am surprised to see that my Tractor Supply actually stocks a pair of fingerless work gloves.
