Corkscrews......

I've always fancied a corkscrew like this one:

But think they are massively overpriced. In Banbury on saturday, I saw them priced from £89 in Debenhams, down to £17 in Tchibo..... Way too much for a corkscrew!!

And then..... Went food shopping in Morrisons......

£4.99 ;D

Complete with a stand, foil cutter, spare screw, and a bottle stopper.... but no fancy box..... it looks exactly like the one in this picture, and is a heavy, solid object, and I can confirm that it does a very good job of pulling corks out of wine bottles.... hic....

So if you fancy one, get yourself to Morrisons....

Cheers!

All of this might just be an elaborate simulation running inside a little device, sitting on someone's table.
