I understand Santa’s milieu. Being a grandfather makes me Santa every year. Besides I don’t want anyone’s stupid junky (but well intentioned) gifts and buy my own too.
“And if you buy now, within the next twenty minutes, I’ll throw in the battery pack for free! Yes, that’s right the deluxe upgrade, yours absolutely free, if you buy now! With the deluxe battery pack, summertime will be bug-less, an electric swatter to,keep the deck and patio pest free! But you must buy now!” (Separate shipping and handling charges may apply)
I was going to reply with your last sentence but you beat me too it. Strange too, the use as a fly squatter was original intent in comment bubble for the Eskimo. The ol’ “sho fly” I suppose.

Must be a bummer being Santa & always having to buy for himself. He can hit snowballs with them

Your public and posted suggestion gives you legal rights to patent idea. I am working with Thomas Edison on manufacturing a prototype now.

How about using it as a french fry cutter. Looks about the right size.

Brilliant. Maybe julienne carrots too. Not an effective dream catcher though.
