things like that are rubbish gifts to be honest!
A 4 pint milk bottle of cold water does the job much quicker0 -
Suspect it will be a waste of money. Personally I use Ice Scrapers that come with a sort of built in mitten to stop you getting ice all over your hand. Maybe one of those would be OK as a present?It's my problem, it's my problem
If I feel the need to hide
And it's my problem if I have no friends
And feel I want to die0 -

I just use the kettle after making my morning cuppa and fill that up with cold water (ie water is luke warm NOT hot).
Fortunately I can still start the car and get the heaters going without risk of having it nicked....lol0 -

I used to do that, but now i use the milk bottle trick so i dont have to take the kettle back in the house!0 -
There is no need to use a scraper. A jug full of tepid water will clear a screen instantly.
Idling your engine in the morning is also asking for trouble, both increased wear and tear, and risk of theft.0 -
Woolies are selling a heated car key (for thawing frozen car locks), and a heated windscreen de-icer for £3. Was £12.50, marked down to £7.50, took it to the till and it scanned in as £3. Bargain just for the car key which is basically what I wanted it for.0

Woolies are having an up to 50% sale tommorow, may be worth goin back for more at £1.50?!
