Lame!
1st Bitches

*first*

I don't get it. Are they not reusable or something? And $2.40 isn't that much...

Yay! Finally the retarded English catch up with the rest of the UK in introducing their smoking ban.... hey what's this...

The prats have invented a stealth device that fits in their packet of fags that can stub out the cig and mask the odour?
So when the boss catches them having a fly puff they can hide the evicence in the little magic Ashcan wand... hmmm...

I think the putrid smoke smell on the breath/clothes/hair..... that may give the game away?

Nice try Jonny English... now go take your cig break in the pissing rain like the rest of us....... muppets!!

"Ashcan" sounds like the new, hip insult.

Ever get cut off in traffic? Try a: "Hey ashcan!" out for size.

I think the writer is assuming you'd get one for each cigarette, which is stupid.

I dont understand, do they ticket for ashing on public streets?

In anycase, this isnt an ash tray as you only ash that last ash in the ashcan and not all the ashes from the duration of the cigarette.

And why would i want to carry around ashes or cigarette butts in my pocket in the firstplace? Useless idea.

This proves that the inventor needs more vaginal interaction. loser.

Incredibly unpractical.
But it looks kinda cool.

Right on brotha, right on!

I think the inventor neglected to forget the big gaping hole in the smokers head that's emmitting 90% of the smoke. Next invention: mouth cover.

I think Marty neglected to forget that we're all impressed by moronic non-statements.

(sigh) yes.

Oh yeah, like smokers are that courteous...

It strikes me that the point is that you put the cigarette BUTT in there - not the ash.

Reason being is that hundreds of thousands of these things are dropped all over the world everyday, and with the smoking ban they'll be dropping even more.

I'm a smoker, but i can't stand seeing people throwing butts onto the street.....Filthy - and you do get a £80 for being seen dropping fag-ends now in the UK.

By the way, you obviously empty this out into a bin and use it again and again - so it is cheap. Even a 'stupid smoker' like me can see that.

Millions (I am not exaggerating) of tax payers money is being spent to clear up the butts thrown on the streets by smokers. Many of whom don't even realise that they create a mess. The Ashcan is a pocket ashtray (the name might be a little confusing for some) it is like most ash trays used to stubb out the butts, it is small, reusable and a fraction of the cost of what the user would spend on cigarettes that go up in smoke... There is evidence that those people who wanted to stop smoking have found it a help to reduce the habit as they are only able to put a limited amount in this devise. The idea is that when you return to your office, home or come across a bin, you then empty it. As all this information is not written on the ASHCAN ,I supppose it might be difficult for some people to comprehend.
Personally I feel that the inventor was not as stupid as suggested by the previous comments. He or she tried at least to come up with a simple solution to a fairly large problem. His only mis-calculation was that many smokers don't seem to care about anyone other than themselves.

DANGEROUS!

My grandma was given an ashcan and whilst trying to insert the burning cigarette BACKWARDS into it (that's right, so the burning bit is near your fingers) she burnt herself.

She gave it to me to try and it is really difficult. You need 3 hands and plenty of concentration to use it. Forget trying to use it after a couple of beers. Also, I could only get 2 cig butts into it!!! What's the point in that?

I see encams (keep britain tidy people) are advertising it - wonder how much they got paid to do that?. Maybe they think that after continuously burning ourselves trying to use the ashcan, us smokers will think, "Sod it, i'll give up smoking. It's not worth the pain!"

LOL - not me I'm afraid.
