They don't give the formula for one shot skill boosts, but it seems to be 1/40th the cost of a continuous item.) You would have to ask your DM if it's possible, as it's not a standard magic item.  The closest thing to what you want in the DMG seems to be "Dust of Appearance" - which is similar to a one-shot glitterdust (with additional effects) at 1,800 gp It seems that the designers don't want non-casters to be able to easily gain the benefits of personal only spells.   Most likely because of spells like shield and true strike.</blockquote>
