The manufacturer calls it the Quik Fix Zipper but they obviously don't pay a copywriter to create dumb puns. So...it's the Zip-a-dee-doo-dad, a set of (3) replacement zipper tabs/sliders in graduated sizes (#3, #5, and #7) that come apart so you can slip then onto a zipper and tighten them with a little thumbscrew. Handy for busted jackets and sleeping bags. Even handier for pants. Removeable and re-usable.

One of our all-time favorite items, back in neon colors. These surprisingly sturdy fly-swatters have plastic grip-handles, mesh heads and extendability. Measure 10-1/4” long when compressed, but pull the 4-draw handle and they extend to a fly-smacking 28”. Yours will be bright yellow, lime green, fuchsia or orange, but they’re all attractive, and the flies won’t care.

In case you get thirsty while you’re cutting things up, these Titanium coated Westcott workbench scissors have a bottle-opener on the bottom of one blade. They also have a retractable ceramic cutter on one handle. With a safety lock. Plus, the serrated blades are detachable which makes them a great utility knife. Makes other scissors feel bad just looking at them. But wait there's more...

Life, and needle-threading, is hard enough, so this little tailor's friend has a 3/32" loop with a white LED below it so you can see what you’re doing. Includes a pair of button-cell batteries and the threader has a cover plus a little hook so you can string it on something and find it in your sewing box.

For when you just can't drag yours around anymore? No, for out-of-sight cigarette butt and ash disposal. This mini-bucket, sans handle, is a 3-1/4" dia x 3-7/8" tall black-composition ashtray that can sit on a desk or table, or fit neatly into a car's cup holder. Its removable lid has (3) slots to hold lit cigarettes and a small, cigarette-diameter hole so the butts slide out of sight and go out for lack of oxygen. Cuts down ambient dead-butt odors, too.

So why can't you ever find one? Put a stop to that with this clear plastic storage box with (100) steel safety pins: (50) at 1-1/8"; (25) at 1-1/4"; and (25) at 1-1/2". Your grandmother would be proud of you.

Faux leopard-skin, among others. And from faux animals in a wide variety of non-animal colors, like green and fuchsia. Perfect for the senorita flirting at a post-modern bullfight, these accordion-style folding fans have plastic frames that hold accordioned cloth with a top edge of black lace because they’re for flirting, remember? Measure approx 9” long and open to 13”. We’ll pick the colors because we have really good taste.

Or snake eyes, or Little Joe drink cushions. These 4" squares of white vinyl have black dots on them so you can use them for protecting your furniture during craps games. You get (6) in each package for a total of (12), or the equivalent of two dice, so they'd also be good as flash cards for teaching craps to primary grade kids. "That's right, Becky--we call two threes six the hard way!

You can’t be beautiful without the tools. We’ll send you a little kit in a zip-up, 5-1/2” x 4” vinyl case. You’ll get a small tweezers, emery board, nail clippers, 1-3/4” plastic mirror, lip gloss, lip balm and (5) scrunchies. We’ll pick a set in a pink, blue or fuchsia patterned case with matching tools inside. (Mom alert: these are the perfect goody bag items for tween and princess parties.)
