Our friends over at The Gadget Store have noticed we have a small affection for the beautiful game (football to those that don’t know what I’m talking about) and have kindly donated a box full of England flags to give away to our readers.

So if you want a free St. Georges flag (3ft x 5ft or a car flag) leave a comment to this post saying what you like about gadgets and football.

Thanks again to The Gadget Store for this cool freebie.

If you thought an uncle making a penny appear from behind your ear was magic you’ll be amazed by the Magic Penny Magnet Kit.

Geeks are not renowned for their fashion sense but moving away from the traditional black t-shirt you can now be geekily funny (or think you’re funny) in green.
