You know when you're just idly flipping through a magazine, waiting for a script at the chemist, scrolling through Facebook, or opening messages, and you see the most random things that make you go WTF!?
Well, the following four products are what I saw while doing just those things.
You'll be pleased to know I've left off the Va-Jay-Jay Steaming, and the Hoo-Ha Bronzing,
they're more of a service than a product anyway...
NO.1
while magazine flipping
The Solar Powered Tent
It's a solar powered tent.
That has mobile phone adapters.
And USB ports.
Isn't the whole point of camping to get away from things?
To leave behind the 21st century and all the gadgets that distract us from what's actually out there?
To reconnect with nature, and the simple life?
I can see it now, people so busy updating their FB status about their camping trip, that they completely miss everything. Like the bloke this week who was completely oblivious to the humpback whales that put on a show so close to his yacht that he could have touched them, because he was too busy texting...
NO.2
while waiting for a script
Powdered Coconut Water
Powdered water.
Just add water.
Not even kidding.
Who buys this stuff?
Marketing GENIUS right there!
NO.3
while surfing facebook
The Selfie Toaster
It's a toaster that cooks a selfie onto your toast.
Because the world needs edible selfies.
You can even have it customised to toast a face onto just one side, or both sides.
You can have interchangeable art so that you have a selection of images to choose from. and if you want them to, they'll stick a photo to the front of your toaster.
The inventor calls it his 'Pet Rock' in reference to an equally silly trend from the dark ages known as the 1970's in which otherwise seemingly intelligent people would pay money to own a rock.
NO.4
while opening an instant message
The Muff cleaning kit...
This came via an instant message from a friend who is a beauty therapist with her own business.
It's is a product line now on offer from one of her suppliers.
So ladies, if your muff is a little on the whiffy side and could use some TLC - head on down to your local beauty therapist and put in an order... unless it's already on the shelf...
Not that's it's something that I would buy anyway, but I certainly wouldn't buy it from a retailer.
That's a little bit too embarrassing for me...
I was once told that I have a knack for finding quirky and unusual products.
I think these definitely fit that category, don't you?
What weird, wonderful products have you found by accident?
