Christmas Pressie ideas - cheap

Anyone out there confused about what to do with all those little bits of rubbish generated when you are out an about? Yes, I know about the electric windows and how they go down but I'm trying to do my bit. Laughing
Not sure if I had ordered the smokers kit whether I would have got an ash tray - but this is what the car is missing.

Found that the removeable ash can supplied on my wife's Citroen C3 is an excellent fit in one of the drinks holders between the front seats. It sits low and hasn't rattled yet!

Plenty for sale on ebay althought the P&P prices are a bit high for what they use - mine came in Morrisons carrier bag taped up! The address label only just fitted! Buy now price around £3 and same for P&P.

So if the kids are asking what to get you for Xmas and you know whatever they spend is coming out of their (your) pocket money this seems like a good buy.

I'm not sure that Citroen still supply these as cans as standard (possibly they are but end up being sold on ebay instead!!! )

Just a thought Idea There's always a way forward!

Shocked Why on earth use £3 when a plastic carrier bag is for free Question

You can also use a new one every time and when chucking nasty sticky smelly things away, you won’t need to wash it like you would your £3 alternative Whistle

Also plastic carrier bags come in an assortment of sizes and colours to suit you frame of mind and can hold anything from a chewing gum to a banana skin to take-away-leftovers Thumbs Up

...and your kids get to buy something they want with their hard erned pocket money Thumbs Up

I was impressed until I read the bit about Ford logo on the bottom....... but then there seems to be alot of them on the rest of my FL2 too! If the Citroen alternative doesn't work out I will get another one - but as wifey already had one it was a case of try before you buy and it seemed to be OK!

I'll try and post photo - only seem to see car in dark these days - I wonder what colour it is now? Laughing There's always a way forward!
