INEXPENSIVE AND USEFUL THINGS THAT NOBODY EVER HAS

JUMP LEADS

Even if your car is brand new, it’s still not a bad idea to have

these lying around. They’re cheap and don’t take up much space.

A CHEESE SPATULA

Known in Scandinavia as an osthyvel, this is a must

have for making sandwiches.

BLUETOOTH EARPHONE SET

You can easily take phone calls while you drive, listen to music

while you exercise, and not have to deal with wires.

DUCT TAPE

For whenever you need to things to hold together.

FIRE EXTINGUISHER

At least for your car, this is a good idea.

MOBILE PHONE MOUNT

This is another way to free yourself up while driving. And it’s a

heck of a lot safer than trying to juggle your phone.

CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR

It’s invisible and odourless, so you won’t even know what’s

killing you until you’re already dead (yes, we know, you’ll be

dead by that point so you won’t actually know).

An alarm would be your only defence.

BATTERY POWERED WATER SENSING ALARM

Put this next to your sump pump or your hot water heater

and if either one fails you’ll save thousands in repairs.
