After dealing with the joys of the airport and settling into your “comfy” airplane seat, you reach into your carry-on to pull out your i-Pod-Pad-Touch. But instead of enjoying the sweet sounds of Michael Bublé, you find yourself fighting to untangle your silly ear buds. End the frustration by picking up a pair of Zipbuds ($39.99). The left and right wires are integrated into a zipper so you simply zip them up when done – presto, no more tangles.
It’s a beautiful evening in Australia’s Hunter Valley and you and your partner are just finishing off a delicious locally produced Shiraz. Keep the memories alive by bringing a bottle home without worrying about wine-soaked clothing. The inflatable VinniBag ($28) surrounds your precious juice with a protective air-sealed chamber. It’s also reusable, recyclable and TSA-compliant.
