Greatest invention ever!
To disable ads, please log-in.
So my husband and I were having this conversation over dinner. He believes that aluminum foil is amazing and useful for tons of things. I piped in that Lasik surgery and the tampon are great additions as well. So other than the obvious, the bicycle...what's your favorite gadget that makes life a little easier?

Also, according to the Red Hot Chili Peppers (and I tend to agree) the bicycle is a good invention.

I'm kinda partial to electricity. OK, it's not a gadget, but it's the best invention.

Duct tape. Because all your other favorite gadgets will eventually break and need to be fixed.

Aside from all the other good stuff mentioned (I too love the online pizza ordering), I'm going to go with the washer and dryer, but especially the washer.
And maybe the refrigerator/freezer. Not sure which one I'd place higher.
Or maybe quorn.... I love to eat quorn.
Chocolate? Or coffee?
I feel pretty indecisive. So many little things!
