Fab gadgets
Posted by: hungryhalibut on 14 November 2016
Don't you just love to find a really good gadget, one that really works and is really cheap? I recently bought a tiny one cup coffee pot but it was too little to balance on the top of the hob. So I bought a little trivet thing, like I'd seen when on holiday in Italy. It cost less than £1 and is just great. Does anyone else have a fab gadget to share, the cheaper the better?
I found one on E-Bay it's 3 years older than household electricity. 
Tesco's £1.99 absolutely brilliant, it was previously so messy at mealtimes

As in soaking them in a soup and sucking them dry? 
Whenever we travel, the room never seems to have enough sockets for all of the gadgets that need charging (go pro; camera; phones; tablets; etc), so I always take one of these. One wall socket charges 5 things at the same.
It's stopped many an argument between the kids about whose i-Pad gets charged first! Costs about £13.
We recently bought one of these night lights from Homebase.
It has a PIR sensor so the light comes on when you approach it, ideal for trips to the bathroom in the middle of the night! There is an option for it to work continuously when dark if you prefer with dual brightness (brighter when you approach it). It also comes on if there is a power failure and the light removes from the cradle and becomes a torch.
It's LED and rechargeable and uses little energy and is under a tenner.
