Snore much?

Oh yes, I snore. I even have been witnessed having apneas. My sister-in-law recommends going to a sleep lab, but the site I went to says they're all far away, and I really dislike doctors. So, as usual, I'll try hair-brained crackpot ideas first. Last month it was Breath Right sleep strips. I picked up a box of transparent large size, and they seemed to do the trick great (at least Yaty says so, I'm asleep when I sleep, so...). This month went to grab another box and they only had the tan ones. Guess what? Tan don't cut it. The clear ones are more rigid, and apparently for me that matters. Went to another store to buy a box of the clear ones, and saw this:

Snoreclipse contains rare earth magnets that were carefully designed to apply a constant, gentle pressure on the nasal septum. This pressure increases circulation in the nasal area and promotes opening of the nasal passages. The opening of the nasal passages encourages relaxed breathing through the nose, which is very helpful in preventing snoring. Retraining the body to breathe through the nose in a calm, relaxed way is the objective.

Haven't a clue what "rare earth magnets" are, but at $15 I'm sucker enough. Only tried them one night, I'll have to update you later if these are a solution or not. (Though $15/year vs. $13/month I'm hoping this thingy does the trick)
