I might have them, I got one as part of the "set" when I first started climbing, belay device, harness and chalk bag.
I've never used the stuff, but I now have four, usually clearing up the crag of shit people have forgotten and left behind. I found one of them walking home!! I live in the mountains of Oxfordshire, so it a really common sight!
