With another cold snap expected in the coming weeks, plus the fact it’s Valentine’s Day soon (ideal gift), duck lovers could be keeping themselves warm with this cute Microwaveable Duck. These are usually £9.99, but currently Play.com are selling them for £4.99.

That makes them a fantastic bargain – and even better if you’re looking for something cute and cuddly as a Valentine’s gift idea. The duck works like a hot water bottle, except you put it in the microwave first to heat up rather than just add boiling water.

Of course there’s always “it’s too cute to put in the microwave” and so if you really can’t face watching your cute duck friend getting bombarded with microwaves just to keep you warm, there are alternative furry friends in the range. These include a Polar Bear, Bee, Pig, Bunny, Ticeratops, Puppy, Cat, Cow and Ladybird.
