If you know someone
who likes quirky gifts or need a gift for someone who has it all
(almost), the following gadgets are delightfully odd and are destined
to make great conversation pieces. Not only are these gadgets unique,
they are quite useful in a practical sense.For
instance, a roving alarm clock can be immensely practical especially
if someone you know has a bad habit of hitting the snooze button
repeatedly. Run Clocky Run is the product name of an alarm
clock perched on wheels. A smart robot, the clock kicks into gear
from its place on the floor and rolls around as soon as the alarm
goes off. In this way, the only way for a sleeper to get rid of
the noise is to get off of bed and track down this little noise-maker.
While it may seem maddening for some heavy sleepers, its great practicality
makes it a splendid gift!
A slightly-less annoying noise-maker is the Mailbox Mail Chime
Alert Alarm. With a range up to three hundred feet, this alert
means never having to check the mailbox five times a day to see
if the bills (or expected love letter) have arrived yet. This is
especially convenient during a storm when making a trip out to the
curbside mailbox can mean a fruitless drenching for no reason. The
gadget is easy to operate and the receiving unit can be plugged
into any outlet around the house. Find it here
Speaking
of rain, the LED Umbrella can help light your way during rainy walks
to the mailbox, bus, job, etc…this terrific item sports a regular
umbrella canopy but boasts a long handle that lights up rather like
a Star Wars light saber. The stem lights up with the touch of a
button so it's not only useful to light your way, it's surprisingly
cool. The best part is the cost (between twenty and thirty dollars)
which is relatively inexpensive.
The
Pet Phone is the ideal gift for anyone with a cat or a dog.
This automated dispenser delivers food into the attached bowl when
activated by a phone call. Running late at work or stuck in traffic?
Simply call your Pet Phone from your cell phone and this gadget
will literally feed the pets. The gadget also boasts a speaker enabling
you to tell your pooch to "eat nice." Produced in Japan,
this gadget is not easy to find, but expect them to explode into
the pet stores in the near future.
This
odd little item will replace the bottom of your shoe or a rolled
up newspaper to revolutionize the way we catch spiders. The Spider
Catcher is longer than a fly swatter and guaranteed to keep
the spiders at bay. This gadget's unique mechanism removes the spider
without squashing or even hurting it so you feel no guilt as you
free it out your door. An amazing little product, the Spider Catcher
will pick up just about any other bug for you too!
These
gadgets will be the talk of the party and certainly make memorably
fun gifts for family members and friends. Of course, consider purchasing
them for yourself too! -J. A. Young
