Perfect Fit Buttons???

Has anyone tried the "Perfect Fit Buttons" that you can get from the As Seen On TV ads or from the internet?  You can fasten them to your pants to make your pants tighter or looser.  I figured it might be a good idea to get a set (4 buttons for $10) for while I'm dropping sizes.  Just wanted to see if anyone tried them to find out if they work or if they are a waste of money.

Thanks!

They seem to get good reviews, and would be a good solution for being up or down a size depending if the pants are too small or too big.. I got this off a review website.. so make sure you don't order the 2 extra, if you have one of those 'as seen on tv' stores in your local mall or someting go there, you may pay a few bucks more, but save on the shipping etc that you pay when ordering online.

Here’s a comment anonymously posted on another website. We’re re-posting it here so you won’t be surprised by extra charges when you order the Perfect Fit Button online.

Just ordered these Perfect Fit Buttons, I’m very excited! A word of warning: there are two extra screens that come after ordering, offering more products. If you select the “additional sets" of buttons, it will give you 4 sets of buttons (the commerical offer on TV is for 1 “set"–the set is 4 buttons, plus the other 4 free w\S&H. The “trick", if you want to call it that (it’s just cleverly worded, really), is that you think that the “default" order doesn’t include the “free" buttons, BUT IT DOES. If you want an “additional set" of buttons, YOU WILL BE PAYING FOR MORE. And the S&H goes up a LOT, $20.97 for me. I have the money to spend, and I probably would have bought more anyway, plus now I have the experience to share with y’all :)

The second extra screen before the order went through was an offer for (I think) larger buttons. I said no, but don’t let that stop you.

I repeat: proceed with your order and say “NO THANKS" to any extra offers if ALL you want is the 2 sets of perfect fit buttons for $10+S&H. Otherwise, YOU WILL PAY MORE. I paid $40.97 total, which again IS TOTALLY FINE as I have the money to spend on it. I went into this knowing that the TV offer might not be EXACTLY as it appeared (a TV commercial that’s less than completely honest?? SAY IT ISN’T SO!!!), so I have no “buyer’s remorse", but I put this out to the Internet as a fair word of caution.

That being said, I really am excited to get these buttons, since I really DO need them, plus I want to get them for the story! I’ll update you when they arrive.

I got them a couple weeks ago - I hate wearing a belt and these seemed like the perfect solution.  I think they work great.  I got mine on e-bay.

Edited to add:
I got 2 sets for $10 w/o all the fancy frills and extras, plus shipping was cheaper - I think it was only $3.95.

 Actually, if you want to save yourself some money, you can use the old pregnant lady trick.  Take a nice rubber band (the ones around asparagus in the store are GREAT), stick one end through your button hole, put the other end through the loop sticking out of the button hole and pull tightly.  The loop the end over your button.  It work wonderfully, and it's practically free!!

I've done that trick before, but these buttons are great for pants that are getting a little loose around the waist and need to be tightened up some.
