Q: http://flic.kr/p/dS9Nj2

I got this gel/liquid pouch alongside a purchase from H&M two weeks ago. The saleswoman didn't say anything about it (just threw it in there alongside a free set of earwarmers...) and I forgot about it until now.
The plastic seems quite thick and that little metal piece in there says nothing on it.

Does any body have any sort of ideas or guesses at to what this could be?
That looks to me like a reusable handwarmer. They're fantastic!

Try clicking the piece of metal. The liquid should start turning solid and will release a huge amount of heat. It lasts for around an hour, so they're great to put in your pockets on a really cold day.

To reuse, you just put it in a pot of boiling water until it turns completely to liquid again.

Oh! That's pretty awesome. I've never used hand warmers before - hence my stupidity.
Thank you :)

My Personal Forum

My name is Amanda and I'm 26 years old. I'm currently studying electrical engineering. Armed with a fairly odd sense of humour and a sunny outlook on life, I'll take on just about anything. I'm also cussedly stubborn, which has its ups and downs. Things get tough sometimes, and I've never been one to run from it.

In my last 8 years with Advicenators, I've gone from honours student to failing out of university (and getting back on top again!), from single to married, from tenant to homeowner.

Until lately, I have been struggling with a diagnosis of bipolar disorder and OCD, which had basically ruined my life and taken just about everything from me. I'm thankful every day for every experience I've had because of this ordeal, because it's helped to make me who I am today. Things like that really make you appreciate what you do have. Now that I'm back in work and school and starting to become myself again, I couldn't be happier. I credit Advicenators with saving my life back when I was a teenager, which is a big part of why I'm still here.

I won't necessarily give you the answers you want to hear, but I'll always be honest and do my best to help.
