SHOPPING Centres in China have come up with a way to keep bored men entertained while their spouses hit the sales.

Some shopping centres in China now offer special \"husband storage\" rooms, where bored men can wait in peace when they have had enough of following their partners around, reports Kotaku.

The rest spots vary when it comes to comfort levels. The most basic \"husband cloakrooms\" or \"husband rest rooms\" are decked out with simple tables and chairs with little entertainment, and are often used by men for quick naps.

However, some husband storage rooms come complete with TVs, small libraries or a selection of magazines, a smoking area or computers for online browsing or gaming.

Some function as mini-cafes, with food and drinks while the men wait
