A Melbourne-based content creator, Mark Polchleb, shared this new Kmart gadget on social media, describing it as the homeware item they didn’t know they needed. His video swiftly caught fire, with viewers falling head over heels for these cute, cost-effective clips.

'If there’s one thing you grab from Kmart’s latest drop, let it be these chip clips.' proclaimed Mark. 'They look exactly like crisps and corn chips. You clip them like you would pegs to your unfinished bag of chips.'



And while he admitted, 'They’re probably not a need', he questioned, 'Has sealing chips ever looked as cute?' And honestly, we couldn’t agree more!

But alongside the wave of ‘woos’ and 'aws' for the adorable new kitchen accessory came a string of cheeky comments that turned Mark's declaration into a playful dispute over the true nature of Aussies' snack habits.

'Who has an unfinished bag of chips?' queried one viewer, and it didn't stop there.

'Amateur, I finish the chips in the first 10 minutes of opening.' another chimed in.

I agree - buy smaller bags of chips and if any leftovers use clothes pegs - duh...
So now you will have to find room to put these chip pegs when there are no leftovers to clip. More junk!!!
