Photos and magnets have become the ultimate fridge accessories, with smiley snaps of your friends and family beautifying fridges across the land. So it makes sense that somebody’s had the bright idea to combine the two with the Fridge Magnet Photo Frame. No longer will your fridge be restricted to just a couple of photos, as this mini digi-frame can store up to 66 of them and scroll through them at any speed you want between five and eighty seconds. It’s got 32MB of internal memory, supports JPG, GIF and BMP images, has both automatic and manual image change modes, and will scroll away happily through your photos for up to 11 hours from a single charge. A very bright idea that ensures you’ll never bore of the photos on your fridge ever again.

For your Dad

The Sat Nag is the best in-car invention since the Sat Nav, if not better. Even if it is guaranteed to get you nowhere fast, it is one of those jokes that just keeps on giving. Push the button on the front and a very well-recorded, condescending woman’s voice will come out with one of a host of hysterical Sat Nav-type commands. With such crackers as: “I know you’re a man, but it’s been 35 minutes now, so can you please admit you’re lost and ask someone the way”; and “In 100 metres turn left. No right, err, no left. Sorry, I never can tell my left from my right”, as well as “In 50 metres I’m going to put on my most annoying voice and say ‘Is your short cut really faster when we get stuck in traffic like this, well, is it darling?” and “In 100 metres I’m going to talk to you in that special voice, which should let you know you’ve upset me in some way that is bound to be your fault”.

For your grandma

Deal with your Arachnophobia at arms length with the Spider Catcher. As amusing as it may be to crush spiders and other insects, this environmentally-friendly approach will do a better job of it and give you that content “wouldn’t hurt a fly” attitude too.

For your grandad

You’ve never got a fishing rod on you when you want one. If only we had a Pen Fishing Rod to hand? This clever little gadget is about the size of a large marker pen at only eight inches long, and yet opens up to become an aluminium alloy 4ft fishing rod, complete with a left and right handed reel (packed separately), a 5lb breaking strain line, and even includes a triple hook spinner. Never again will you be caught short when you spot a fish rise, and it’s small enough to carry with you everywhere!

The iLogic Sound Hat is amazing. Simply put it on your head, plug it into your iPod or any MP3 player, and you’ll be amazed at the sound quality from the built-in speakers that fit snugly over your ears. Wearing a hat with headphones is a almost impossible, and ear buds (aside from being moderately uncomfortable) have a tendency to fall out or pull at your ears in a very uncomfortable way. This hat solves all the problems of listening to music on the go, and just to top it all off, other people can’t hear that horrible high-pitched wail of whatever it is you’re listening to. So no more foul looks on the bus or train from people who merely don’t understand the importance of excluding yourself from the world on public transport. Plug in and go about your day while keeping warm in the cold.

For the lady in your life

Who could possibly resist this huge Hamper of delicious Thorntons chocolates? Painstaking sampled just to make 100% sure every one of these sweeties were of a high enough quality for our lovely customers. While we challenge anyone to attempt to eat the entire lot in one sitting, we think this is the kind of gift that will lift your status in the popularity stakes no end if you’re the kind of generous soul who shares their chocolate. But to be honest - who needs friends when you’ve got chocolate? Time to be selfish we think.

For the preschooler in your life

Elmo Live is one of the most ingenious interactive toddler toys we have ever seen. At a first glance he looks like any number of Elmo dolls, with soft red fur and big silly eyes but with just a touch of your hand he jumps into life, waving his hands wildly as he treats you with a story or one of his classic jokes, he even asks you to come closer for a hug or a kiss. If he wasn’t red and covered in fur we would be tempted to say he was lifelike, although that is the only way in which you can describe the way he behaves: Elmo actually does look as though he’s alive. His mouth opens and closes when he talks. His head bobbles back and forth as he speaks. He waves his arms, sits on his stool, stands up, crosses his legs when telling stories and jokes and he can sing songs and play games (including “Elmo Says” and a cool version of musical statues called ‘Freeze Dance’) - he’ll even sneeze if you tweak his nose in just the right way. It’s just like having Sesame Street in your very own living room and he’s sure to be a huge hit in the bestseller gifts chart this Christmas so make sure he’s the star of your living room for years to come.

For the Child in your life

The name Black Ghost immediately calls forth an image of elegance, a sense of foreboding and a shiver of excitement. Just about exactly the experience you’ll get from flying this extraordinary helicopter. Not far off looking like an Apache helicopter (if you squint a little) but sadly without the weaponry, this tiny little powerhouse is so astonishingly stable just about anyone can fly it. As well as being an easy flyer it’s also pretty darn resilient along with full altitude and directional control plus a super steady forward motion. It charges up from the remote (which takes 6 AA batteries) and you should get at least 10 minutes flying time before it needs another charge.

For the teenager in your life

Speakers for your iPod can be quite awkward. They are rarely small enough to fit in your pocket, and we are just about certain that none of them look like a building block, even if they’re almost the same size. That is until now! The iBlocks have been cleverly modelled on one of our favourite childhood building blocks (you know the ones we mean) and are small enough to pop in your pocket, so there’s no need for extra cases or wires to clutter up your bag. The sound is pretty impressive for something so small, the Active Bass System makes sure the speakers distribute quite a kick. All you need to do to get it working is to plug it in and the volume control buttons have been camouflaged to look like ‘bumps’ and discreetly placed in the centre of the block. Compatible with 3rd Generation iPods onwards and the 1st generation iPod Touch.
