The beef jerky purse is the work of artist Nancy Wu. Construction-wise this is a beauty, it looks like a high-end purse; it is well put together and it is edible, which is always a plus. On the other hand, it smells like beef jerky, which although not entirely unpleasant, is not an odor that most people want to be associated with.

Loc8tor Lite, Find Lost Valuables Quickly And Easily

The constant search for items is something I’m prepared to hand to over to this credit card sized gadget. The Loc8tor Lite the newest and smallest member of the Loc8tor family. Like the rest of the family it can be used to find almost anything which has a homing tag attached to it – keys, cameras, TV remotes, pets, mobile phones, wallets, purses or even the car. It uses RFID to guide you to within an inch of the small homing tag.
From the site:
Unlike anything else currently available the Loc8tor”s audio and visual cues from the handheld point you in the right direction and will guide you to the exact location of the missing Tag / item whether it’s stuffed down the back of the sofa or left behind in a shop. It will literally take you minutes (even seconds) to find things that would normally have you hunting around for hours and maybe never found at all.
With amazing accuracy you will be guided to within an inch/2.5cm whether you are indoors or out, in complete darkness or in a noisy room.
To find your item, turn around in a full circle then walk in the direction of the strongest signal shown on the handheld It’s as easy as that!!!

The Diskette Handbag
We already talked about a strange shaped (and hideous) purse which was the Chicken, but this time the item is more inclined to the geek & retro style – I’m talking about a Diskette Handbag in case you didn’t notice.
In each side of the bag there are six genuine diskettes, think of it as a good way to show off your geeky side to everyone, or not…
A removable, magnetic latch holds the top edges together. It can fit keys, a cellphone, an iPod Mini, a wallet, and a few paperbacks. And make you look totally sweet!
Price: $55

Chicken Purse: Delightfully Hideous
The product site describes the the Chicken Purse as “the most fun purse we’ve seen in dozens of seasons.” One can only assume that in this case “fun” is really some sort of codeword for “grotesque.”
Still, you have to admire the kind of woman that would have no problem toting this around. Just don’t ask me to hold onto it while you go to the bathroom.
Price: $29.95
