Not really AIBU, posting for traffic.
Just the title really, what's your Dragons Den idea, light hearted...,

Mine is a machine that can make any colour nail polish (so u can match it up to outfits), u would just scan the items and it would make that colour, like the machine at BnQ.

My cousin was on dragons den. No one invested. I bet most of you have their invention in your home.

I hate being cold and wet after a shower and I just this afternoon said to DP that I wish you get a dryer to blow hot air at you after your shower before you had to open the cubicle and get that horrible blast of cold on your wet skin.
I have issues.

That should say Dave Gorman!

instead of a wheelchair having wheels, couldn't it have tracks instead so it can manage stairs?

Beautifulblue · 21/08/2018 23:17

@JamesDelayneysTattoos what is it? I'm intrigued.

FlapAttack23 · 21/08/2018 23:18

WHAT IS IT JAMES THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME 😬😬😬😬😬😬

Ice cream van app. Inspired by living on the housing estate of 1000 houses. You can hear the van for miles but can never be sure if its coming your way, in the next street or have missed it.
Phase one, you can track where the hell it is and follow its progress.
Phase two you can put in a request for it to stop outside your house.
Surely Bannatyne would go for it?

JamesDelayneysTattoos · 21/08/2018 23:20

Ill give you a clue, some of you might even have more than one.

BitOfAKerfuffle · 21/08/2018 23:23

I've been talking about this for years wireless plugs and appliances so you could position your appliances anywhere and not have to worry if u are near a socket or have trailing leads everywhere because the appliance would just send a signal to the plug that is in a wall socket nearby. OH said it's not possible to create

I would be surprised if this hasn't already been invented, something which would take "cyber sex" to a new level

Imagine a guy at his computer has a sex toy he can penetrate, and a woman elsewhere in the world on her computer had a dildo. Now imagine if both those sex toys could be attached to their computers. The guy's sex toy would digitally measure how deep/fast he penetrates it and this info would be sent through the internet to the woman's dildo which would respond accordingly.

Ha, I just realised I know two people who have been on and both got no investment! One I know through my current work and the other I knew via a hobby. One was several years ago, the other in a fairly early series. Both still make a living with the things they were on the show for - neither make a fortune - but they still make a living doing the things they were told would fail. One was rather bitter about it - the other, philosophical.

FlapAttack23 · 21/08/2018 23:29

Trunkie thing? Tangle teaser hairbrush.. i need to watch more dragons den.

Beautifulblue · 21/08/2018 23:32

Trunkis? I have 1...

JamesDelayneysTattoos · 21/08/2018 23:36

We have 3 in our house. The person and their mum, used to package the item at home on the sofa.

Fruitbatdancer · 21/08/2018 23:38

An all in one drive through, I want to park up, get cash out (drive thru ATM) have my car filled up with petrol by an attendant (I bloody hate doing it myself) and I want to buy fresh milk and bread, and get a hot coffee. Which all comes through the car window to me. I do not want to leave my seat. I do not want to get 3 children out and be a moving fucking circus carnival for what should be A 30 second job, I just want stuff passed through a window. Too much to ask?

BikeRunSki · 21/08/2018 23:39

James tell us!!!!

I’d invent a domestic radio which does traffic alerts, like on my car radio. I don’t need to know that my normal way to work is gridlocked when I am already on the way. I want to know before I leave so I can go a different way.

FlapAttack23 · 21/08/2018 23:47

FlapAttack23 · 21/08/2018 23:48

James.if you dont tell us soon we will hunt you down and find you and take your 3 products away from you

RebootYourEngine · 21/08/2018 23:56

James I need to know what it is.

Graphista · 22/08/2018 00:08

"A person drier for getting driedout if the bath ) shower - although maybe it's already invented for wealthier people" does indeed already exist - there's one at my local pool, basically a huge hand drier for the whole body. My friend (quite well off) has a shower that does this too.

"I'm not sharing my idea.

One of you will steal it and make billions." Same

My dad invented something years ago, work related. It's providing a small amount of money to him but inventions aren't as profitable as people think. He didn't recuperate the costs of prototypes for a few years at least.

"A virtual reality simulator machine that makes politicians (esp the blue ones) live a day as one of the people their cruelty has affected." No invention needed. I've said in real life and on several threads on here ANYONE wanting to be an MP should live on jsa equivalent income in social housing for at least 6 months before they're allowed to.

Love the ice cream tracker - think most parents would use it to know when to turn tv radio volume UP 😂

JamesDelayneysTattoos · 22/08/2018 01:27

Sorry I had a cookie emergency.

It's the tangle teaser. He's laughing all the way to the bank

WomblingWoman · 22/08/2018 01:38

Flip flops that don't make the flip flop sound.

StealthFlops.com - I'm going to make a mint.

I have a plan and am actively seeking a MN Dragon to make my dream a reality.

I'll admit the USP is a bit dodgy and I'm not going to win style awards (well the 80's are having a comeback so maybe not an issue) but I'll be first to market...and it works!!!!

And no...I'm not going to tell you my secrets...

Flashingbeacon · 22/08/2018 01:49

My idea is so obvious I won’t be able to make any money on it. Mattresses that have strong electromagics in the corners and 4 counterparts. Get into bed, turn on magnets, instant duvet heaven. Also fling the loose magnets into duvet cover when change the bed, toss sheet over bed, turn on magnets, ping bed made.

Heated sofa cushions, in individual segments.

Maybe not everyone is as chilly as me but I think it’s a winner.

Like the baby shovel too though.

Cblockbitch · 22/08/2018 06:45

@bikerunski Google will do that for you. I get a traffic alert on my phone 15mins before I leave.
