You may have seen a range of brightly coloured silicone pop-up kitchen items which are space saving for those without much storage space, and light, for those with a small loading margin.  Camping and caravanning shops seem to feature them, but prices are not cheap.  We saw one shop where a pop-up drainer was £23.99!! (We've seen them at other shops at half that price).  A day or two ago we went on line and found an identical drainer at Wilko for £4.00 - same colour, same design.  We ordered it and picked it up today!  Wilko have the bowl, the drainer, and the bucket in their range but other shops offer a kettle, colander, and other items in the same range, and they would match the blue Wilko ones if you want to pop everything!!!

If anyone has been considering buying one of these then do check out whether your local Wilko has one in stock, or whether you can order on line and pick up from your local shop.

ValDa, we got it in Lidl, they had square ones as well as oblong ones 7.99€ 2 weeks ago. First time I've ever seen them.

Blow!  Too late unless the 'remaindered' Lidl shop in Lincoln has them.

Where did you get your oblong washing up bowl, Tammygirl?  Our bowl is many years old and due for replacement, and also doesn't really allow the glass lid to go down fully when it's in place.  A folding oblong one would be great.

Sorry, just had a mental block - our bowl is square......................!  Duh!

We got a rectangular w/up bowl in B&M, Val. It doesn’t have handles like TG's but fits in the sink and allows the lid to close.

I've removed the glass lid on our sink. Seems a waste of time. If you are doing food prep, you probably need the sink anyway.

I use our sink bowl to transport washing up "stuff" so the glass lid is useful for containing everything when travelling. We use a collapsible bucket and colander. Must have a look in Lidl as we need a new sink bowl at home, I can never find the right size for our sink.
