Why?
Not because of the housing or cost of living of the petrol or the PPP (pound per pint), but because of the Binvention.
Given the simplicity of the design, the Binvention is quite neat - not to mention it gives me a use for all those bags I'm (yet still) accumulating. If only my 29-year-old Alzheimer's would stop preventing me from GRABBING MY CLOTH BAGS FROM THE DOOR KNOB...sheesh.
But $132 [£64.99]?
I'd rather go out and buy a plastic wall-mounted hook, thus leaving me with $130 in which to buy beer and fill the aforementioned bags.
Side Note: Did you know that people in Singapore use about 2.5 billion plastic bags per year? That comes to 2,500 bags per family - almost seven per day!
