There’s nothing more inconvenient than losing your keys, right?
Well, that’s probably a bit of an exaggeration, but there’s no doubt it’s pretty frustrating when you’re fumbling around in your pockets, or emptying the contents of your bag to try and find them after locking yourself out of the house.
If losing your keys seems to be an issue that you come up against on a regular basis, then we’ve found a really handy bluetooth chip tracking device on Amazon that works like a keyring, but will ensure you never misplace your keys again.
The CHIPOLO Bluetooth Key Finder is a compact keyring bluetooth chip that “plays a 120dB loud sound to help you find your missing keys fast”.

It comes in a range of bright, eye-catching colours too.

According to the product description on Amazon, the chip is “water-resistant, so you can use it in all conditions without having to worry about damaging your tracking device” and is powered by “a CR2032 coin battery [with a] battery life of up to two years”, so when the battery starts to get low, “you will get notified and you can easily replace it”.

The best part is that, whilst it’s certainly in a convenient keyring size, the device doesn’t just have to be for locating your keys. Attach it to pretty much anything of value to you that you need to keep an eye on and it’ll work in exactly the same way.
Using bluetooth, you can ring the chip from the CHIPOLO app for your iPhone or Android, or it will show you where you had them last on a map if they’re out of the bluetooth range.
It also works with ‘Assistant’ devices too like Amazon Alexa, Google Play and Apple Siri.

It’s also eligible for Amazon Prime delivery perks too for those subscribed to the service.

Home Bargains has announced a special two-day closure of all UK stores
Emily Sergeant
Home Bargains has, once again, announced it’ll be closing all its UK stores on both Boxing Day and New Year’s Day this year.
And it’s to make sure staff get a ‘well deserved break’.
After what has been yet another busy year for the retail industry, many workers have been left feeling like they could do with a little extra time off, which is why Home Bargains is following on with what has become a now-annual tradition by shutting up shop on two bank holidays.
All of our stores will be closing for Boxing Day & New Years Day.
Announcing the move in a post on social media, the discount retailer confirmed: “All of our stores will be closing for Boxing Day and New Years Day. We would like to thank all our colleagues for how hard you have worked this past year, and want you to relax and enjoy the Christmas break with your loved ones.”
Of course, this isn’t the first time the retailer has kept its doors shut on bank holidays.
Many shoppers will recall it has made the same decision to give hardworking staff a break every year since 2019.
Explaining a little more about the decision taken to close all its stores, Home Bargains said: “As a family-run business, we know the importance of being together at Christmas with those we care about most, now more than ever.
“This is our way of saying thank you to our colleagues for their continued hard work and dedication.”

Two Greggs in Manchester will be serving their breakfast menu in the evening next week

Who says breakfast has to end at 11am?
In news that’s set to be music to the ears of breakfast lovers in Manchester, Greggs is giving them exactly what they want.
We all know that brunch is a ‘thing’ by now, so now it’s time for brinner to make a name for itself instead, as Greggs has teamed up with Heinz to bring its much-loved breakfast menu back for tea time, kicking off from 4pm onwards.
The move comes as a new survey has found that the majority of Mancs (69%) admit to enjoying eating breakfast food in the evening, saying it’s ‘convenient and comforting’ – even ranking breakfast as a ‘more important’ meal than tea, as well (38% vs 36%).

Greggs says it has ‘lost count’ of the amount of customers that have tried to order breakfast items after the usual cut-off time, especially in Greater Manchester.
But luckily for those breakfast-loving Mancs, they can finally get their favourite breakfast and sauce pairing long after the morning rush is over next… but only at two Greggs branches, and only for a very limited time.
On Wednesday 14 and Thursday 15 October, the Heinz x Greggs Brinner collab will be available at Greggs St Mary’s Gate and Greggs Oxford Road, from 4-7pm only.
“We’ve lost count of the number of customers who have tried their luck ordering breakfast after 11am, so when Heinz came to us with the idea of making Brinner a reality, it felt like the perfect excuse to give the people what they want,” explained Zoe Harris, who is the Customer Director at Greggs.
“And let’s be honest, a Greggs Bacon Roll just wouldn’t be the same without a squeeze of Heinz Tomato Ketchup.”
