Save £55 on compact Ninja CRISPi air fryer in early Amazon Prime Day deal
The Ninja CRISPi Portable Air Fryer has multiple functions such as air fry, roast, keep warm and recrisp. Air fryers have become essential for many households. They are handy gadgets that make cooking easier, quicker, and more efficient. However, it can be expensive to invest in a good-quality one, and shoppers often find themselves doing without. Now, shoppers who may have been holding back on investing in one due to price could be in luck, as the Ninja CRISPi Portable Air Fryer is down to £124 from £179.99 on Amazon - more than 30% off. This air fryer has many desirable features, not least that it has the power of a full-size fryer despite it being a portable option. Shoppers can cook anywhere there's a plug, making it an ideal choice for smaller spaces. It also has multiple functions such as air fry, roast, keep warm and recrisp. It cooks with heated air for even results and food can be served directly from the bowl. For those on a health kick, the air fryer requires little to no oil and with a 3.8 litre container it can feed up to six people with the capacity for cooking a whole 1.2kg chicken and vegetables. This makes it an ideal option for family dinners, friend get-togethers or meal prepping lunches. Sides and smaller portions can be cooked in the 1.4 litre small container which are thermal-shock resistant and dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. If this isn't the one for everyone, they could instead try the Cookworks Halogen Air Fryer in Black for £32 from Argos which is suggested for three to four portions, has 15 litre capacity, a removable bowl and one cooking compartment. Another option is the Dualit Air Fryer 5.5 litre for £121.18 from Nisbets which is said to be designed to the highest specifications, uses convection heating and provides a healthy alternative to deep fat fryers. The Ninja CRISPi, however, has been rated a high 4.3 out of 5 star rating on Amazon. One shopper said: "This air fryer is fantastic. It's so easy to use and clean and looks far nicer than all the other bulky air fryers." Another shopper said: "Love the new Ninja. The smaller dish is great for single portions. Very easy to use... Very economical to use as it's such a compact size, I have tried burgers, sausages, roast potatoes, calamari and of course chips all cooked excellently." "This is amazing," another customer said. "The cooking process is easy, can cook everything in one go. Ninja is the best. I love the products and you know they are good and brilliant." Some people shared complaints with the Ninja CRISPi for a few reasons. One shopper said: "This is the first Ninja product I have purchased, and although it is easy to use and clean, I am disappointed that after only using the large crisping plate a couple of times, one of the silicone feet has split." Another said: "It hasn't been designed very well. Within one use, the rubber 'legs' on the grill plate had broken. Within two uses all of them had fallen off. It doesn't cook evenly - the back right is hotter than the rest. You also can't choose your own temperature." For a compact, cheaper and faster way of cooking, however, the could be an ideal buy.

What can happen if you steal pint glasses from pubs amid crackdown
Drinking culture in the UK is no stranger to local and national headlines as many would expect. Behaviours deemed outrageous in other countries are far more commonplace in UK towns and cities, in some cases even encouraged. However, one particular bad habit that we have - and seldom mentioned - is stealing pint glasses on a night out. You're probably guilty, I'm regrettably guilty, but someone you know is most definitely guilty. Stealing pint glasses to add to your home collection is a quintessentially British pastime. — No Context Brits (@NoContextBrits) July 30, 2022 Nisbets is recognised as the leading supplier of catering equipment in the UK, that supplies professional kitchen equipment to restaurants, hotels, bars and more. Deciding to dig deeper into Britain's lust for stolen tableware, they published a case study that surveyed 1,000 UK residents. According to Nisbets, on average, 37 million Brits have stolen glasses or tableware in their home. Based on two glasses costing £5.00, this works out to a £186 million loss to the industry. They found that the biggest culprits in the mix were the 18-24-year olds with a whopping 34% admitting to their wrongdoings. Although you may think it is harmless, stealing glasses can hit your local pub hard (getty) (Image: Getty) 25-34-year-olds were next in line, at 31%. Whilst 18% of those over 54 admitted they're guilty of nicking the odd knife or bar glass. Over the years, there have been several calls from British pubs to bring in the police over such matters. Well, the first is obvious, you could face a ban from the pub you stole from. Any establishment has the right to refuse service to any patron they do not want on their premises. A pub in Belgium once went as far as tagging their glasses with alarms on them, such was the endemic.

Although a prison sentence is, shall we say, unlikely, you are technically committing theft so could be lawfully held to account - meaning a fine or ban.

I tested all the methods Responding to a spate of thefts in Lancashire back in 2018, James Newton, a nightlife improvement campaigner, said: 'Taking a glass from a pub is a criminal offence. It's as simple as that. 'Pubs could invest in strong stickers on glasses, linked to an alarm system, that would go off if they tried to leave with a glass. 'Or they could use plastic glasses, which are better for the planet and are safer. And no one would want to steal a plastic glass.'
