Who thought of you when they saw that in the shops?!

CatchTheFox · 25/12/2012 22:09

my husband suggested i can't get rid of it because they might want to see it when they come round. i told him to fuck off, and if they ask me where it is i will tell them i smashed it up and buried it in the garden to prevent it being regifted to some other poor bastard.

yabu....for using the term chazzer

OhlimpPricks · 25/12/2012 22:12

Very funny, but it's easier to separate with my hands than use it. Bet it is a nightmare to wash.
But thanks for the link to the site!

Keep it for the upcoming secret Santa/crap to original recipient gift swap thread

RainbowRabbit33 · 25/12/2012 22:20

I just showed it to my husband, who literally laughed out loud and said he wants one. Can I therefore set up a swap with you? Would you like this?

That is vile!

TheMonster · 25/12/2012 22:27

I've started a swapping thread in chat, if you are interested in getting rid.

Iheartpasties · 25/12/2012 22:28

Twenty quid for a shoe that holds a bottle of wine, why ???? You hope they got it cheaper than that, I would rather have twenty quid to spend in the sales :)

SmellsLikeTeenStrop · 25/12/2012 22:31

It's horrible. I think I'll get one for MIL as payback for the diet book she got me this year Xmas Grin

ToffeeCaramel · 25/12/2012 22:34

Why buy an egg separator that needs washing up when you can separate an egg using .........................an eggshell!

Itsafreefuckingcuntry · 25/12/2012 22:38

Oh my days!! That is proper rank!!!

Charliefox · 25/12/2012 22:39

I, too, am lovin the chazzer. From henceforth, all charity shops shall be referred to, in this household, as the chazzer!

Tragedies · 25/12/2012 22:39

Love 'the chazzer.'

Lindsay321 · 25/12/2012 22:45

At least it's not in the shape of " a man " IKYWIM.

Eugh! Utterly revolting. Shame on me! Shame on me!

ilovesprouts · 25/12/2012 22:47

omg how rankGrin

cuttingpicassostoenails · 25/12/2012 22:52

I know an eight year old boy who is going to lurve that.

RainbowRabbit33 · 25/12/2012 22:52

It just got funnier. The person that got me the shoe bottle holder got my husband a bottle of whisky. He's just gone to sample it, taken it out of the cardboard sleeve, and... it's still got the supermarket security tag on it!

Maybe she didn't spend twenty pounds on a ridiculous bottle holder, maybe she's just been round her home town nicking stuff!

cheeseandpineapple · 25/12/2012 22:53

Brilliant, love it, v funny. Lindsay, what a thought!

CatchTheFox · 25/12/2012 22:56

rainbowrabbit, i assume you are displaying the stolen whisky in the shoe wine bottle holder?
