The one winter item your home desperately needs

Laura Galvan

Put down your shovel and keep your path safe and clear this winter season with the Saltnets mat.

This reusable mat melts snow and ice on contact without the need for electricity and is an easier way to remove snow from your walkways. From slipping and sliding, icy door entrances can cause accidents quite often, but this clever invention works by releasing a proprietary mix of proven melting agents so no snow goes unmelted on your walkway or driveway.

Originally $49.99, we're saving 20 percent on today's limited time only deal -- making the Saltnets mat just $39.99! Shop the one winter item your home desperately needs above.
