    LOL.

    Just make sure you don't use these when there are guests around.

    I knew someone who used a pair of chopsticks.

    It's about time someone solved this problem. Now we can finally move on to jet packs and curing cancer.

    i use chopsticks :D

    but the FECS system sounds hilarious. interesting idea

    • medium_tight on 28/06/2012 - 13:56

      yep. chocpstick is cheaper, but need some practise for those who never use one :)

    • Augh on 28/06/2012 - 14:22

      chopsticks rule,
      works for nearly anything like chips, popcorn, bhuja mix, prawn crackers, etc.

      • justtoreply on 28/06/2012 - 14:33

          Lick your chopsticks and dip em in it.

          I've picked up m&ms cos I don't fancy that milky smell left on your fingers.

          meh. cant be bothered. i just pour em straight to my mouth.

          saves the time to pick them up with hands/chopsticks/whatevers.

    • bonus999 on 28/06/2012 - 15:17

      I am thinking to buy one of this and throw away my chopsticks…hopefully this grabber can use with my soup noodle.

    For one thing, they can start reducing carbon footprint by stop producing crap like this

    • the player on 28/06/2012 - 14:00

      agree. the most stupid gadget of the century

      And if it's not food grade plastic, then you eating more than chips.

  • howbazaar on 28/06/2012 - 13:40

    I prefer to blend bags of chips into a shake and slurp on them - that way I can keep my hands free.

    pretty sure this is what dane swan needs after he cruches up all the chips to make MORE CHIPS! brilliant…

    "It is carefully designed to pick up your snack, be it popcorns or potato chips"

    Not sure about popcorn!, given the small surface area, it will be like using a skill tester every time you reach for one…just imagine bringing one of these next time you go to the movies and with a first date… you'll surely be single for life.

    maybe now we have an international standard precision instrument for a "pinch of salt"

    What a completely stupid item this is.

    Got mine now :-)

  • morpheu on 28/06/2012 - 14:39

    and to complete the 'lazy rotund geek set' all you need is the Nose Booger Picker & Bum Relief Scratcher rolf!@#

    • tdw on 28/06/2012 - 15:22

      a real geek would hack this to make it do all of the above and more!

    Where does the coupon code go?

    EDIT: Never mind

    • AusSam on 28/06/2012 - 16:58

      So where did you put it ?? I have added to the cart my 15 picker's and logged onto Paypal and still not opportunity to put a code in !!!

      EDIT NEVER MIND AS WELL - have to register first…

    This is useless and stupid.

      Bought 15 - beat that !!! :0)

  • syba on 28/06/2012 - 15:47

    Use it so you don't get grease on your hands? How do you grease off the chip picker upper? Is it dishwasher safe?

    • martinsucks on 28/06/2012 - 15:53

      "But the salt on the potato chips also gets all over the Potechi Hand. In order to solve this problem, the Potechi Hand includes an Finger Easy Cleaning System (FECS). When you turn this feature on, the index finger and thumb of the hand moves to rub off the salt"

    • haz on 28/06/2012 - 15:55

      You can then buy a no touch cleaning system to ensure you never need to come into contact with potato chip grease ever again http://www.tensens.com.au/INTKAIVAC1250/Kaivac-1250-No-Touch…

        ….except for all the potato chip grease in your mouth and arteries and heart valves LOL.

        • morpheu on 28/06/2012 - 16:29

          getting your fingers salty/greasy is half the fun of eating chips! just like the Colonel says "finger lickin' good"! similar to when i was a kid and mum would let me lick clean the cake batter off the egg whisk/bowl…

  • bashar20 on 28/06/2012 - 16:59

    where do you enter the code?

    This THE most USELESS ITEM I have ever seen on OzBargain.

    It is a total waste of resources, adds to the already massive pollution load on the planet, and most likely will only partially work, if it even works at all..

    It looks brilliant. I just bought 10 of 'em !

    Thanks OP.

    Finally, a digital solution to an age-old problem.

  • shinichiduy on 28/06/2012 - 20:08

    I use cheap homebrand coles or woolworths sandwich plastic bag as a glove. Not very environmentally friendly though LOL

  • groggm on 28/06/2012 - 21:16

    coupon seems to have expired (just attempted to waste $1.49)

  • Cyberon on 28/06/2012 - 21:21

    I pour chips into a bowl and use a spoon…

  • Bargainz on 29/06/2012 - 02:40

    These things'd go well at a cricket match.

  • sparkles on 14/07/2012 - 00:49

    I'm embarrassed to admit that I can't wait for this bit-o-junk to arrive. The letter box continues to be empty.

    • sparkles on 16/07/2012 - 15:12

      It came today! And there was probably more than $1.49 worth of bubble wrap around it LOL.

      How do they manage to post these things for such minuscule amounts? It would cost $6 in postage just to send to my next door neighbour.

      • YadaYadaYada on 16/07/2012 - 19:16

        Mine turned up today as well. I am sort of disappointed to say that it looks like a used product :( Either that or a poorly made one. It has scratches on it, and small yellow and blue markings here and there.

  • highon2str on 18/07/2012 - 18:28

    Buyers remorse. Got mine and now I don't know what to do with them…
