Imagine that planet earth has just been visited by an alien life form.

The alien life form is familiar with earth's online ordering system and is armed with his Zog credit card and ready to go on a spending frenzy before returning home to his beloved 'er indoors before Xmas.

Unfortunately, our alien friend has an inability to correctly focus on anything with more than two colours in close proximity to each other and can only read small fonts! He just cannot see the product image or read the product name because of its increased font size - all he has to go on is the product description to help him decide what to buy.

Anyways, he's just sent me a text about his first purchase. It was described as a 'Size: 2'' (5cm)' - what did he buy, from which merchant, in which category and how much did he pay for his first purchase?

PS Ask for clues if you want them!
PPS He's going to keep texting me his latest star buys in the run up to Xmas!

Is it by some remote chance a Pink or Blue Crystal Dummy 5CM (4pk) from Woolworths in the Baby's clothing category, retailing at £1.49 ???

Hi Amoochi

You picked one product out of 4 million and you got it spot on - I would buy a lottery ticket tomorrow, if I were you! I did make it a bit easy given my earlier reference to Baby Clothes and Woolworths - the next one will not be as easy!

The product in question is a Four Pack but the picture shows 2 of them so do I get 4 items or 8 items for my money? Also is the 5cm the length of the teat or from one end to the other? Is the handle fixed or floppy? Is it safe to use with a one month old baby? How do you wear it? Attach them to my baby bushhat for a trendy summer look? A fancy pair of designer earrings? One on each foot? The options are endless. A suckcessful result!

Oh no, I get it now they are in a 4 pack so that each parent gets 2 each and you wear them by sticking one in each ear then no need for the baby to need any!

Another description later today with a different question, difficulty factor 2!
