Want to prepare for winter? Well, if you happen to have a patio in your home and would like to sit outside even when the mercury drops later this year, you might want to consider investing $149.95 in the Even Warmth Patio Umbrella Heater from Hammacher. This is a special heater which is attached to virtually any patio umbrella, where it is capable of evenly distributing radiant heat to folks sitting under the canopy. It will work differently from tabletop heaters as those only warm a limited area, but thanks to a trio of adjoining arms, they will combine to cast an 8′ circumference of heat which is more or less guaranteed to provide warmth to everyone around the table. It relies on quartz heating elements to produce radiant heat that keeps you and your family or friends warm, making furniture surfaces nice and cozy for your cat to sleep on as well. Whenever you fold down an arm, its heating element will shut off, so you can always adjust the temperature accordingly depending on the number of arms.

Mechanical Kitty Coin Bank

Posted: 17 Jul 2010 05:23 PM PDT

Want to teach your little ones a thing or two about saving up money? Well, that is possible with the Mechanical Kitty Coin Bank from ThinkGeek. Not only does this $29.99 purchase comes in an appealling candour to kids, it also plays on humans’ weakness of not being able to turn down a kitten when they see one, never mind that this is a mechanical model. Hiding inside a Japanese box, all you need to do is place a coin on the food bowl that is located on top of the box and the kitten will then pop out covertly, snatch the coin like a greedy dragon, return into its enclosure and give a heart breaking meow to carve a smile on your face. You might then be persuaded to put in another coin! We would say you will have to hold around 10 BBQs before your friends donate enough for you to make back the $29.99 asking price for this.

Popcorn Grabber ensures you limit your popcorn intake

Posted: 16 Jul 2010 05:25 PM PDT

Popcorn is one snack that you can just continue munching without realizing just how much calories you have devoured – and that is a very dangerous thing in the long run since we all know that health is wealth, and getting on the road to obesity is not something anyone wants voluntarily. Well, here’s a novel method to control your popcorn intake – using the Japan-hailed Popcorn Grabber. Also known as the Potechi no Te popcorn grabber, it ensures you eat nothing but a single popcorn at any one time, doing away with your old habit of cramming in as much popcorn into your mouth as possible with each handful. Sounds like a cool idea, but chances are most people will get frustrated at its inefficiency after a few mouthfuls that they would probably throw it away and return to their old habits.
