And the Winner Is . . .
(Above: My best attempt at an illustration.)
The winning entry was part of a complete spy-purse kit, which included an impressive array of brilliant products, such as "Corrosive Lip Gloss" and "Tear-Inducing Mascara."
However, our judges were blown away by the sheer simplicity and usefulness of one disgusting little concept: Fake Blood Chewing Gum. It doesn't make use of the latest advances in technology, it doesn't come with a lot of bells and whistles, and you might even be able to make it yourself. But we believe Fake Blood Chewing Gum is destined to be a classic.
(And unlike a tube of fake Halloween blood, it could easily go undetected inside a purse or handbag.)
Congratulations, Hania! You're the winner of the Perfect Gadget Contest!
Here's the entry . . .
Fake Blood Chewing Gum
Need to gain access to a private property? Well, ask for their bathroom of course! Obviously, if you’re a stranger, they will immediately refuse your call to the powder room. But once they see a young, innocent girl in need of the bathroom for a severe oral injury, they’ll be none too hesitant to refuse (unless they actually like blood on their doorstep)
The Gadget/Item:
This special gum is bigger than your average piece of bubble gum. (Note: Not a gum stick but an actual gum piece.) It is approximately 2cm x 2cm in size. 85% of the gum is filled with a gooey centre, and when chewed, this gooey centre will release a blood coloured and textured liquid. The other 15% of the gum is an actual gum, but it’s quite an easy layer to break into for the blood-like substance to show
(Note: this also means you will have to store the pack of gum in a place where it will not be so easily squashed, or else you’ll end up with a mess in your bag/pocket/purse).
Just remember, an over the top injury may result in an ambulance being called. Then you should run for it!

Congrats, Hania. I'm sure I speak for many of us when I say I'm kind of jealous.
Oh well, maybe next time. (I must have the worst luck or just a lack of creativity to lose so many contests)
Well, I'm mature enough to admit that a whole purse full of stuff is better than my Campact Fingerprinting Kit. :D
Lady Dahlia: For the record, you were one of the finalists. We loved the idea and your illustrations. Truly amazing!
Congratulations, Hania! Genius idea. I never thought someone would take it as far as an entire handbag. Brilliant! I applaude!

dangit, i always think of things too late, like my idea for an explosive pen or an acidic lipstick. exellant idea for blood gum though. good job Hania! :D
Congratulations Hania!!! (share your blessings. hehe:D) I'm jealous. Now I can't wait for the NEXT one. haha. Ooh, can you tell us what the surprise is?

Hania: Congratulations.
It would be so cool if you actually made and sold them.

I didn't come up with a single good idea. Hey, where could i get tear inducing Mascara?

Lady Dahlia, yours totally cool, too!! I so wish I could have that in my purse! All in all though, I'm sure the Irregulars would have found more uses for Hania's idea (Great job, btw!).
Kirsten, I'm with everyone else when asking to see the finalists. Really, we're just curious. It won't do any harm, will it? *smiles like Iris trying to little-girl her way into something*
So, yeah. Great contest!

I actually have a fake blood capsule that I keep in my purse in case I need to get out of class quickly.
