Inflatable air loungers are all the rage, and we’ve got ’em! Ours, by Drenched, weighs just a smidge over 2 lbs, and when it’s folded and stuffed into its bag with shoulder strap, it measures a mere 14” x 8” x 6”. No pump required! Just swing it around to fill the pockets with air (or use the wind), snap it shut and plop down. Great for the pool, beach, concert, game, picnic, campsite or living room. Hey, it’s your life. When inflated it’ll look like a 20” high x 30” wide x 70” long hot dog bun. Sit in it longways, for a hammock pose, or the other way, where it becomes a single lounge chair--or a love seat if you’re willing to share. At this price they won’t sit around here for long.

And easy to store. One of the better pick-up tools we've seen. Folds to just over 16" to store, but locks open at 30" with spring steel arms on an aluminum frame. It has soft, suction-cup-shaped grabbers and big, locking pistol grip. Pretty good gripping capacity too-maybe to 10 lbs or so. Get one for Mom, because at her age she can't reach the things she used to. And then get another one for yourself, because you'll be Mom's age before you know it.

Your long nasal nightmare is over because we now carry a battery-operated nose-hair trimmer. (Also good for another nightmare--ear hair.) The steel blade is recessed so there’s no danger of becoming a latter-day Vincent Van Gogh or Tycho Brahe (just look him up). Easy to clean under the tap, and comes with a blade cover and brush. Runs on (1) “AA” battery (included), and measures just 4-3/4” long.

It's either a telescoping aluminum backscratcher, a fork for people whose elbows don't bend, or a sand rake for miniature Zen gardens. You pick. The 5-draw shaft extends from 6-5/8" to 20-3/8" long, the 5-tine rake is 1-3/16" wide, and it has a pocket clip.

We feel sorry for those flesh-colored bandages that are just trying to hide. Stand up and be healed with bandages that make a statement! Say Oink with this box of (15) sterile photo reproductions of a raw bacon slice, plus a bonus plastic pig in every box. Mustache bandages work even if you cut something other than your lip; just tell people it's a mustache transplant. You get (15) in (4) hairy styles, plus a secret gift.

Find out if you are alive, and if so, whether your blood pressure is so low you will tip over when you stand up. This home blood pressure kit includes the usual D-ring cuff, a nurses' stethoscope and full instructions on their use. Not a toy, it is the real thing. Great for monitoring your health and for educational purposes. It is a two-party set, meaning it is most easily used by two people. Anyone want to play doctor?

Bob the Plumber told you it was going to cost $15,000. to remodel your bathroom. Ha! Bob doesn't shop at A.S.&S. For less than the price of a loofah, you can have (4) -- count 'em, (4) -- new towel racks. Your package of (4) 25-3/8" x 9/16" dia rods has (8) 5-1/2" x 2-3/16" x 7/16" thick pre-drilled brackets. Real wood, ready to stain or paint and mount on the wall (hardware not included). Okay, you're down to $14,997.05. Keep shopping!

What beats a pair of tweezers? Two pair, like in poker. Our each is a package with (2) tweezers, both stainless steel and 3-3/8” long, one with straight tips and one with angled tips, but you’ll get (2) packages, which is four of a kind, and that beats just about anything. Tweezers for plucking eyebrows, extracting slivers and generally making yourself healthier and more beautiful.

Anodized aluminum channel, 2-5/8" long and just wide enough to hold a 5/8" wide card or tile which is up to about 1/16" thick. It has a spring clip in the channel to secure the card and a pair of "tie tacs" on the back to hold it on your bosom. Flaunt your name, "I Love Minot", "Addicted to Surplus" or whatever message you feel is appropriate in this age of self disclosure. We'll pick at least (2) different colors for you from among black, gold, red, purple, blue and silver.
