Pet treat launcher and food (Tiptree CO5)
Pet treat launcher as described here: Almost full bag of Royal Canin 2kg puppy food. I would use the puppy food as treats for my parents adult dog, to fire from the launcher. So most of the bag left. Just got limited use so giving away for someone else to have fun with :) (Food expires Dec 30)

Storm Glass (Tiptree CO5)
Promised
Details in the Amazon product link below as it's tricky to photograph :) Info from Wikipedia: The storm glass or chemical weather glass was an instrument claimed to help predict weather. It consists of a special liquid placed inside a sealed transparent glass. The state of crystallization within the liquid was believed to be related to the weather. The inventor is unknown but the device became popular in the 1860s after being promoted by Royal Navy Admiral Robert FitzRoy who claimed that "if fixed, undisturbed, in free air, not exposed to radiation, fire, or sun, but in the ordinary light of a well-ventilated room or outer air, the chemical mixture in a so-called storm-glass varies in character with the direction of the wind, not its force, specially (though it may so vary in appearance only) from another cause, electrical tension". The compositions of the liquid in a storm glass varies but usually contains "camphor, nitrate of potassium and sal-ammoniac, dissolved by alcohol, with water and some air." These devices are now known to have little value in weather prediction, and tend to change visually based on the surrounding temperature,[1] however they do not react to pressure changes and continue to be a curiosity.[2]

Rollerblind (Tiptree CO5)
Expired
This was too small (didn't realise the width when ordering wasn't the fabric). Think about 130cm maximum length. You can clip it on your window (as shown) or drill and screw it. Material is blackout so no light shows through

Sunshade roller blind (Tiptree CO5)
Gifted
I managed to buy this by mistake, not the blind, the colour! 🙄 I'm sure someone will enjoy the rainbow holographic stars 🤩 Works well but a little bit like a two way mirror at night if the inside is brightly lit Width 68cm x Max Length 125cm (actual blind material 66cm, you can pull down to any size) Basically new as I bought a couple of days ago. P.S. make sure the suction cups are securely stuck, or get woken at 3am from the sound of it crashing down! 😝
