What is This Year's "Must Buy" Tool, Appliance, Toy, or Gadget?

Not watching much TV does have its drawbacks. For instance, I don't know the answer to that. Had we driven to town on Sunday to get the newspaper, perhaps I'd have read all the ads and found out. 

Not that I want to run out and buy whatever it is, but I'm curious. 

I recall one year when my secretary and her Mom did the "Be at WalMart to stand in line by 4 a.m." routine so they could buy bread makers. One year it was George Forman grills and another time it was sandwich makers. One year it was some kind of wrench - and then there was the twisty flashlight. 

My neighbor who watches hours and hours of TV said that this year it's "Cuisine." I finally figured out that he meant the Cuisinart Griller - and that I DID buy for a bachelor on my list. Not because it's a cool gadget, but becase I know he'll use it. He wore out both his George Forman Grill and his sandwich maker. 

In fact, it's my "Black Friday Buy." But I didn't stand in line or drive anywhere at all. I found it on line at Amazon for $20 less than at the other stores that came up when I Googled it. And then there was a little button under the price that said "get a coupon," so I clicked and got another $10 off - plus the shipping was free. 

So, even though I couldn't talk anyone into going to Black Friday with me, I did end the day with a "bargain." 

Fun. 

Meanwhile, I'm still curious. 

What IS this year's "must have?"
