Chad's Crappy Corner and the theme for February, cheap office gadgets.

Chad emailed our loyal (and much appreciated) Patreon supporters and asked them to pick a February, 2016 theme of the month they would like to see. They voted and picked cheap and (hopefully) crappy office gadgets. And this week's gadget: Dine-Ink from Fred & Friends. 

We love Fred & Friends. They make clever, reasonably price fun gadgets. The one Chad picked for this week's show is their Dine-Ink. Here's the description from Amazon: Putting in the overtime and eating at your desk again? well here are the essential multitasking office tools you have been waiting for - a set of ordinary stick pens that does double duty as handy dining utensils. They'Re food-safe, reusable and they will stand-up to the rigors of general Tsao's chicken. So bon appetite, cubicle captive! you get 3 pens, with both original caps and utensil caps. Small parts, not for children under 3 years. $8.34 and Amazon Prime as of 2/23/16.

 

And Chad's take?

 

Chad loved these. So did I. And so did the chat room. As Chad showed us, they working ballpoint pens with blue ink, and they come with regular caps so you can carry them in your pocket. And with the dining utensil caps for when you want to eat at your desk. Very clever and under $9.
