Yep. They are indeed fucking fantastic. I'm working on getting a pair for every pair of shoes I own. I recommend that everyone go out and buy a pair so we can all be "gellin'" like the corny ass commercial. But seriously, the insoles kick ass. I've tried the regular gel and the sport insoles and both are superb.

Do either of you have sweaty feet?
That is a problem I have. Sometimes inserts feel great but then I feel like I am swimming in my shoes.

My feet sweat a lot too. I like to use Gold Bond Foot Powder for odor and sweat in my shoes.

I have a pair of Geox sneakers ( http://www.geoxusa.info/home.php ) , which are awesome and I have a pair of Ecco shoes.
They were both damn expensive but they can deal with wet feet well.
I don't really like foot powder.

I swear by dr. scholls pads. I am on my feet all day and dr. scholls is better relief than the expensive shoes I bought for people who stand all day.

Had started work at a gas station. First week, feet hurt so bad from 8+ hours of standing that I could barely walk at home.
$12 inserts turned cushionless shoes into pure comfort. Buy them.

Hmm, maybe I should try this. 8 hours standing at a cash register tends to suck shit.

Well, for those of you with sweaty feet, just buy shoes one size larger than normal, then put the gel inserts in, and then odor eaters on top of them.
I think that would work...

You can also buy either either the spray they use at bowling alleys, or these cool things I got that are basically little bags full of cedar wood chips that absorb all the odor. (No matter how good your hygiene is, if you work 8-10 hour days standing in one pair of shoes, they WILL smell)

If your feet smell and your nose runs, you were built upside down!

I use Dr. Scholls inserts - they are truly amazing. My summer job makes me stand up for about 11 hours, so without Dr. Scholls, im pretty sure i would be kerfucked.

Funny, with your job I figured it'd be your knees that hurt. Dr. Scholl's doesn't make gel kneepads, right?
