In order to lessen the burden of the weekly shop, could we develop on the 2 in 1 / concentrated product idea. For example;

Shampoo / Toilet cleaner Baking flour / talcum powder. Concentrated mineral water - just add water. Concentrated beer - just add water (my local bar actually already uses this). Mosquito / Hair spray Car polish / toothpaste German wine / paint stripper. Garlic crutons / paving gravel.

Endless possibilites . . .

       Pineapple: If we ever drink together, it's going to be at *my* local bar. The beer you mention sounds exceptionally gross!

       Not particularly funny and half-baked years ago by Saturday Night Live. 'It's a dessert topping! It's a floor wax!'.

       Fine if you're unfortunate enough to get Saturday Night Live in your part of the world.   

       Whilst this is not hilarious I can see it would have its share of adherants, call it 2way.

       'Unfortunate enough'. I'm hip...gawd, that was a bad show...and worse movies.

       Ah, come on. Don't waste space just moaning.   

       The inspiration was the Japanese dog shampoo, which carries the warning 'do not feed to goldfish'. Maybe that's where SNL got it too, I didn't get it from them - I don't watch such sophisticated programs.   

       Anyway, I kind of hoped someone would come up with some funnier ones. What about a 2 in 1 nail-clipper and chainsaw?

       Sorry SC, we don't, never have and likely never will get it in Oz, but if it's anything like Letterman, which airs after midnight here, you can keep it on your side of the Pacific puddle.
