Choc Shots

This week we were sent a few boxes of the fabulous Choc Shots to review, chocolate shot glasses which contain any liqueur you choose to use with them. There was a simple fundamental problem we had with reviewing the Choc Shots and that was the addition of alcohol. We quickly learnt that reviewing products which include alcohol isn’t our forte, in-fact 46 chocolate shot glasses down and we still hadn’t managed to string together 2 worthwhile (or coherent) sentences for this review.

The Slanket

The problem with blankets is that in order to do anything like read a book, change the TV channel, knit yourself a wooly jumper or drink a beer, you have to take your arms out from under the blanket, making them cold and defeating the point of having a blanket. The Slanket combats this by incorporating sleeves into the design of the blanket, meaning no more cold arms for you my friend.

Giant Chupa Chups Lollipop

The world would have you believe that the best things in life come in small packages, though after laying our eyes on the Giant Chupa Chups lollipop I’m afraid we are going to have to disagree. 75 times larger than a standard Chupa Chups Lollipop your dentist isn’t going to tell you that this will make a great gift idea for anybody, we however having just finished one off couldn’t think of a greater gift that we would like to receive so ignore your dentist and believe us!

Space Coaster Marble Run

Are you the type of person that can construct an Ikea desk without looking at the instructions or are you the type of person that calls in help from your dad? It’s an important question to ask yourself before opening the box to the Space Coaster Marble Run because depending on your answer, it’s going to take you either 20 minutes or 2 hours to construct. So after donning your Bob The Builder hat and somewhat rewardingly figuring out how to put it together, the fun really starts.
