Because of the way my 'fridge is configured, when I store a six-pack of beer in its vertical position, I can't pull out the back four bottles without hitting the bottom of the shelf above them. So I usually stack them horizontally, but the pyramid tends to slide apart when I remove a bottle. This is one of those minor life annoyances that I never gave much thought to—until I spotted the solution: ModeStudio's Fridge Monkey, a simple rubber mat that lets you securely stack both cans and bottles.

For the champagne and hard-liquor drinking set, a better way to keep that bottle icy without sticking it directly in a bottle of ice cubes is Drainscoop's Bottle Bucket, made from aluminum coated with acrylic.

I don't drink enough champagne to be irritated by trying to pour from a dripping-wet bottle, but I wouldn't mind using one of these to chill some gin.

Someone want to remind me why we can't just put bottles into iced water?
the water runs off pretty quick, and any bottle that is cold is going to attract condensation and become wet anyways...
not to mention how much longer it will take to cool the bottle without the thermal conduction between the water and the bottle...
