    Huh? Is there a reason why one or the other has to come first?

    I've always said it as Gizmo's and Gadgets, and I'm sure a lot of other people have too. Just thought it was a little weird.

    I've always said it Gadgets and Gizmos, but then again I don't say it very often. I don't think it really matters either way.

    There used to a game called Gizmos and Gadgets, maybe that's it. It was a very good game.

    The saying is 'Gadgets and Gizmos' not 'Gizmos and Gadgets'.

    Just as everyone says 'Black and White' not 'White and Black'.

    Or 'Hot and Cold' not 'Cold and Hot'...etc.
