Shopping for the holidays will almost always expose a person to something they’ve never seen before. Here are some interesting items dotting shopping lists this season from ThinkGeek – a few are quite useful!
The Bluetooth Bracelet – When phone holsters are too cumbersome, and you just don’t want to put your phone in your pocket, you can safely leave it in the car, in your jacket, in your purse or other hiding place and not miss a call. The bluetooth bracelet sits almost inconspicuously at your wrist, to alert you of phone activity.
The iPod Brick – Sometimes we all need a little nostalgia. Here’s an iPod speaker deck modeled after your favorite construction toy. I don’t think the block connect together to make a bigger speaker, but that would be fun if you could do it.
Guitar Amp in an Altoids Can – On everyone’s stocking stuffer list, this is a whimsical and hip twist on a practical solution to a real problem. Electric guitarists can’t always just plug in and turn it up, so pocket-sized amps that either include self-contained speakers or jacks for headphones are essential. Given a choice between this and the Smokey Joe amp (plain old plastic box about the size of a pack of cigarettes), this one wins all the style points.
And finally a problem solver that shows some real observation skills – the Coffee Cup Power Inverter. Not only does it give you somewhere to plug in those annoying AC powered devices that don’t come with car chargers, but it keeps the connections stashed in the cup holder!
Happy Shopping!
