I'm after a gadget - help please!

[WatermelonSugarLow]

I have a Christmas "shopping list". On the list is "something geeky/a gadget".

TikTok has presented me with loads of "Amazon finds" over the months but now I need inspo, I can't find anything!

Something for about £10/£15.

What geek gadget have you got that's actually really good?! 🙏🏼

I absolutely know how to open a bottle of Champagne! (or Cava or Prosecco). But there are some bottles we've had where even my DH couldn't open them.

Sorry @BIWI - I genuinely didn't mean to imply that you didn't know how to open a bottle of bubbles. Apologies if my post came across as though I did.

@Garlicwest do you have this particular one? I’ve been looking at these but there are so many

a back scratcher

That's OK @LookItsMeAgain!

We had one of these growing up. We had hours of fun I tell you!

Snowflake multi tool. Loads on Amazon. I want one
A dog finder thing that attaches to the dog's collar
Head light, with or without hat

No, I've got a cheap one from Temu. It works but it's a bit moody! The one I linked has OK reviews and was on offer - it's definitely higher spec than mine, it has different levels and a timer.

It is nice to be able to keep your drink warm and to reheat it without getting up!

It's not that exciting or quirky, but I think one of the best kitchen gadgets you can get is a microplane

I have bought a couple of these as stocking fillers for (teenage) grandsons from TEMU for less than £2.

😂Top tier Christmas gadget. The full one was something I bought for my other half, and every time my dad visited he ended up fidgeting with it, so next Christmas he got one, then my uncle found out and he got one next. Now half the family have them and they’re all so well used. I’ve now got a Swiss card in my bag and it’s dead useful!

Yes he does! Off to check this one out...

(Along with led chopsticks 😂)

I'll take a look - thank you

Anyone have any experience and views on strawberry hullers?

Does he cook?
We have found the garlic rocker a huge improvement on the garlic press or faffing about with a pinch of salt or a knife. We got ours from a fancy cookery shop for £££ but saw them in BandM recently. I bought them for all the DC. So good!

I second that!

Over budget but my most successful gift to geeky male friend was an Apple Air Tag.

Thank you. Perfect for DS.

We have one. It’s good but can remove too much strawberry if that makes sense.

Does he know your budget is £10-15 when he's asked for a gadget?
