Iv never needed or suffered from not havent chains on my feet or chains on my tyres in all my years.

Wear good boots and tread carefully and drive the same way... you will get where you are going imo.

My wife used the coiled wire type last year when walking the dog after the snow had been compacted hard for a few days and found them a great help.

They're cheap and work according to the wife so sound like a good deal to me

It's very situational. I've been caught out before trying to free cars etc and sturdy shoes were fine. However I also distinctly remember being stuck for an age because myself and others could not get good grip. I reckon it took 3 times as long standing in freezing cold than if we could have cleared cars quicker with something like these. For the price I'd rather have em than not.
