Give A Cuddly Bear & Help Recycle At The Same Time!
What? How could that be? It’s easy. Re-Softables, like Kiki The Koala, I showed on World News Now is made from 11 recycled plastic water bottles. He’s 14” tall and a great gift idea for the really young, or anyone who loves cute plush toys. There are other Re-Softables too, like Ted The Teddy and BoBo The Bunny. I love that the manufacturer prints on the boxes “Ages 0+”. They’re right. Any age can appreciate these cute critters. They’re about $23 each as of 12/5/21. I paid $22.99 for Koala I bought on Amazon.

Ever Hear Of A Cork Fish?
Well you will now! The Cork Fish is an ingenious gadget that makes retrieval of wine corks as easy as catching fish in a barrel! Just slip the flexible, strong stainless basket into the neck of the wine bottle, let the stray cork float into the basket, and pull firmly on the sturdy stainless steel handle. Voila! Out comes the cork! But wait, there’s more. What if the cork has broken apart inside the wine bottle. There’s a solution for that too. The Corkfish comes with a handy piece of gauze mesh stored in the handle to retrieve even tiny cork fragments. Actually, two of them, one stored in each side of the handle. And it comes in a very nice package, an ideal house warming gift, or stocking stuffer. (But you’ll need a big stocking!) And the price is amazing. On 12/4/21 it was just $7.00 on Amazon, but that price can change at any time.

It Cuts Cardboard & Soft Plastic Packaging, But It Didn’t Cut My Skin. (Your results might vary.)
I’m leary of metal boxcutters because they can be very dangerous. That’s why I wanted to buy and try the Slice Carton Cutter. I think this is pretty neat. It looks good, and it’s so much safer than using one of those fearful box cutters. You’ll see me try it on several packages in my video, but first here’s what the company says about it: Slice safety blade’s unique cutting edge might seem dull, but it cuts right through your material while keeping you safe! Other blades are dangerously sharp. Slice blades start at a safe and effective sharpness and stay there 11 times longer. With a metal sheath and a reinforced nylon handle, this durable tool stands up to industrial use. Ideal for cutting boxboard, cardboard, tape, clamshell and flexible plastics. Ships with a 10526 rounded-tip reversible utility blade. Each side lasts up to 11 times longer than a comparable steel edge. I was impressed at how well it works. Under $10.00
