Effect
A Pack of cards are shown, each card bears a different product on it's face, and an identical receipt on the back.
The spectator is asked to take an imaginary shopping trip .On their return home, they find that one item is past its sell by date. they cut the cards, and look at the item they cut to. They are then told that another item, is damaged. they cut the deck again, looking at a second item.
the performer now becomes the shop keeper, and reveals which items were damaged, and out of date.

Comments

The method used is very well hidden.I had an idea before watching the dvd,so looked at the cards. I looked,and looked, and looked. And could find nothing.
however once you watch the dvd, you will be able to do it straight away.
the quality of the cards is excellent, screen printed artwork, on high quality plastic card,which should last a very long time.
Highly reccomended. A superb, commercial piece of magic from Mr Dobson.

you're like Yoda.you dont say much, but what you do say is worth listening to....

I really love the fact that Wayne is still producing top quality stuff like this despite his physical limitations.

In keeping with all of Wayne's other stuff in recent years, he's figured out how to avoid the finger flinging sleights but still keep the pizzazz of the effect intact. As a result, the performer can focus fully on the presentation and entertainment aspect. The DVD gives several routines but it's easy enough to dream up your own presentation.

I purchased this trick recently, and its everything I hoped for, very simple, looks effective, and the bonus material on the dvd gives a really good finish/kicker to the trick.
