All that changed when I found Clocky. CLOCKY WORKS! Clocky moves, so I can't get comfortable or used to where the snooze button is placed. I easily carry Clocky to any room in the house I choose to get cozy, relax, and watch some TV 'til I fall asleep on a work night.

I LOVE CLOCKY and highly recommend giving it a chance because you will fall in love with the results.
