For many of us, holing up in our flat for days is the only way to avoid going to work. ‘I've got a really bad case of ebola, boss,' is our fervent telephoned plea each morning.

But what of supplies to keep the erstwhile skiver in prime working order? While you groan from the comfort of your duvet each morning, attempting to convince your flatmates/partner of your life-threatening illness, rest easy in the knowledge that they can't possibly have missed the shopping list you've left in big luminous letters on the fridge door.
Simply attach the Lumipad to your chosen spot using its magnetic strips and take pride in this revolutionary piece of kitchen-based tech.

The Lumipad senses people passing by and flashes its message across the 5-inch screen, so while home alone, why not leave yourself some messages to keep you in tip-top spirits while you dodge toil from the comfort of your home.

‘Hey handsome,' the Lumipad remarks as you dig out a five-week old pasty from the fridge. Feel good and get things done with one handy gadget. You'll wonder how you survived without one. .
