Duds of the year

Electric paper airplane launcher
The electric paper airplane launcher won't blow you away, but will do it to a paper plane. This gadget needs to be assembled and is capable of setting a paper plane in flight for 8 seconds. So next time you want to send a paper plane in that boring history class, you can use this gadget or do it the old school manual way.
Cost: Rs872

The Message Toaster
Give way sticky notes, 'message toaster' is the in-thing when it comes to leaving a message. This toaster not only toasts your bread, it also lets you write a message on the bread. Looks like someone took the "eat your words" phrase too literally. Also, do remember to keep enough bread at home lest you want to leave a message!
