The sale pitch:

The new Wet Umbrella Bag has been designed to eliminate dangerous, slippery floors in your store by allowing your customers to store their wet, dripping umbrellas in an easy to use plastic bag... Say goodbye to unsightly and unsafe wet floors by using our Wet Umbrella Bags during rainy or snowy conditions.. The bags are packed 1,000 bags per case in a safe, easy-open carton that eliminates any need for cutting by your store personnel... Our free-standing dual dispensers can be conveniently placed at each entrance to help ensure the bags are available for every customer... Your customers will appreciate your thoughtfulness while your safety team and insurance agent will applaud your proactive stance...

Well yes and no. I do have a red Picasso but not the actual one in the picture. That was taken from a website of a maindealer.

What's that puddle underneath? Has it got a leak? Or did you exercise one of your rear legs on it?

That'd be because he didn't bag his umbrella... allegedly

And bugger. Why didn't I think of the idea. I mean... selling a bag to catch water :)
