Alarm clock floor mat that you must stand on to turn off

If you set Ruggie with your desired wake up time, when it’s time to wake up, the Ruggie will sound your alarm, and to make it stop, you need to stand on it for at least 3 seconds before it shuts off. By this time, you’re out of bed and on your feet, so you’re much more likely to get on with your day, rather than just hitting a typical ‘snooze’ button and going back to sleep.

I started keeping my alarm clock on my dresser, across the room from my bed and on the opposite side of which I normally sleep. I STILL hit snooze and walk back and climb back into bed

Perhaps this method might work if I placed the clock in the bathroom down the hall.....

I never understood why this is an issue. If your alarm wakes you up, and you choose to shut it off and go back to sleep, that is your failure not the alarms. Have a bit more self control.

.....and you won't have to put your feet on a mat on the floor. You'll be like Sylvester the cat, when the Bulldog pup runs up behind him and barks.

The round thing goes between the mattress and the box spring; tends to startle the heavy sleeper awake. I know whereof I speak.
