Mid-air shopping..

It's quite interesting to turn the pages of Shopping Guides of Airline companies while travelling by air. Apart from the normal collection of perfumes, watches, pens, scarfs,jewellery etc, sometimes the items selected for sale in the flight are amusing and maybe in some cases bizzare.The inventors are really worth applauding as some of these items are practical and frankly have utility. A case in point is an advanced version of tweezers (for shaping eyebrows) called la-tweez-Pro Illuminating Tweezers. After looking at this product in the Shopping Guide of Cathay Pacific, 4-5 time while travelling, I finally gave in and bought these "revolutionary"tweezers (along with their chic compact case). They have a press button for the illumination and they really work well.

The others which caught my attention were VIP (Very Intelligent pocket-now they seem to be things of the past), folding bicycle (I am still wondering why they will sell a bicycle mid-air) and Digital Note Taker.I guess these mid-air shops aim to bring the best of innovative things to people in a short time, and of course provide entertainment to travellers like me !!
