It’s about time someone invented a better cup holder, the automatic retracting one on my PC has just about had it. Spink is a cup holder that fits mugs, takeaway paper cups, bottles or glasses with ease, and what’s more it sticks to your desk with a big ol’ lever powered suction cup so if you bump your cup accidentally you don’t end up with a coffee-soaked keyboard. This is bound to make IT gurus around the world happy and they need more happiness. AU$29.95 from assorted retailers but also available worldwide.

Whether it’s your favourite takeaway coffee or a glass of juice, Spink simply sticks to your table and holds your drink so it can’t be knocked over. Made with a shock-resistant shell and a lever-powered suction cup to lock your drink in place, Spink was also designed to be as unique as you.
