Street Gliders £3.99 @ Argos

I'm actually a little bit ashamed to admit that I considered checking whether these come in my size. I mean come on, wheels for shoes, pretty cool, no? Ok, probably not if you're over the age of 12. Ah well.

These come in black with flashing LED lights which you activate by rolling the wheels. They're basically wheels that you can strap onto your shoes to turn them into make-shift skates.

They're suitable for children aged from 6 years, weighing up to 55kg. That bit definitely rules me out, darn it.

At £3.99 instead of the usual £12.99 these would make a great addition to the birthday-present-box if you have such a thing in your house, or could make a nice little treat for someone looking for something other than toys to spend their Christmas money on.
