Re: Great gifts (#2) to give your parents...

my wife and i saw this on tv last week. when i first saw it, i thought "how stupid"... and my wife said "that's incredible, we have to buy 5 for our relatives and 1 for me". alrighty then.

as i thought about it, i think she's right: any older person or person with less-than-strong hands/wrists would probably welcome this in a heartbeat.

basic details are:
Lids Off® Open-It-All™ Center
(SKU: JW400)

Features:

* New this year – includes an automatic can opener and bottle opener!
* Save counter space with this 3-in-1 appliance: jar, can and bottle opener.
* Requires absolutely no hand strength.
* Open jars in seconds with the touch of a button.
* Opens all size cans, even the tallest ones, with hands-free operation.
* Bottle opener.
* White with gray and blue accents.
