Beer Pager Saves You From Ever Going Brewless

by Caleb Johnson on August 25, 2009 at 04:38 PM

As it turns out, pagers are useful for more than just drug dealers and doctors. At least, that's what SkyMall is banking on with the 'Beer Pager.' With this device, you'll never again have to drink a hot beer just because you forgot where you left it. Snap on the removable coaster/coozie, clip the mini-remote control to your body, and let your worries disappear.

According to Gadling, the 'Beer Pager' emits a signal that is detectable from up to 60 feet away and can't even be stopped by walls. Just press the button and listen for that oh-so-classy belching sound. Finding your beer will be like a game of drunken Marco Polo. Priced at $19.98, it's worth the cost if you're one of those folks that always misplaces your drink. Then again, if you need a device to keep track of your beer, you might just be better off cutting down on your intake. [From: Gadling and Skymall]
