Alligetter Grabber LED Tool

Alligetter LED Tool is for those clumsy types who find themselves reaching for small fallen objects down the drain, under heavy furniture or inbetween crevices. We'd like to say this is pretty useless overall, but then again, if you use it once and it helps you retrieve your wedding ring, thus saving your marriage in the process, it would be money well spent...

An LED light lights up what you're reaching for while the spring-loaded trigger and serrated teeth allow you to grab and nab that item with a greater chance than your coat hangar contraption you made in vain. For $19.95, we'd also be prone to get our money's worth and use this at the dinner table to grab across the table for seconds.

I have a took I found at an auto-parts store that basically does the same thing. It's metal & magnetic, and has a plunger to activate 'claws' to grab items.

No, there's no light attached, but I think I can live without that for the couple dollars I paid for that auto-parts tool!
