The place for great unique gift ideas.
Just what everybody needs at work, a panic button! Slap this puppy on your keyboard and have some fun with your fellow employees.
The button doesn’t do anything of course, and I’m not sure if it even depresses at all, but boy it sure looks good! One tip in the comments on the product’s page is that it’s not too great of an idea to put it on a laptop computer…it won’t shut thereafter.
Need to get a cheap gift for everybody in the office? Give them a bag of panic buttons!
Typically I blog about gift ideas that are less expensive, and maybe more reasonable to get people for gifts. On occasion I’ll throw in a nice triple-digit gift idea. Not today my good reader friends, today, we’re going all out. This is the most expensive Rolex I could find. In fact, it’s so expensive, that at the time of this post, the savings on the sale price is almost $1,000.
So, with that intro, I present to you the Men’s Invicta Lupah Pave Diamond Watch with Champagne Dial. I could stop there, because it’s a Rolex, and really, that’s good enough, but I won’t. This watch has over 450 diamonds; 451 to be exact. Another part of it, and I’m not sure what it is, is the Globule Crown and Pushers. Maybe that’s the name of the style of knobs it has there on the side. I’m not sure, but they look pretty awesome.
That’s all. I’ve never seen a Rolex in person, but maybe one day.
Put a down payment on somebody’s wrist here.
Here’s a nice way to sweeten up somebody’s holiday season. To kick things off, the plush snowman has a stomach full of homemade creamy caramels. Then there are so many things in the basket, I’ll throw it into a nice little list for my wonderful readers:
When it’s all said and done, the whole thing weighs in at just under 7 pounds! I’ve never heard of Peppermint Bark before, but it sounds pretty awesome.
This little clock is totally awesome. You know those pin frame things? I really don’t know what they’re called, but they have lots of little pins that will stay in place if the thing stands on its side. You start by putting your hand in it, then, as the imagination grows, it turns into finding inanimate objects around the room to push the pins onto, then it always ends up with a face being pressed on the pins. Yeah, that!
Well, this clock is one of those, except instead of hands, objects, and faces, the pins move to show what the current time is, hence the name Pin Clock.
With each passing minute, different pins will rearrange to show the new time. When that happens, you can hear the pins move, nothing loud, just a soothing little shuffle. It’s a pretty neat little desk clock, and of course, a great gift idea!
Now this is a gift basket! Just look at it, it’s glorious…and delightful. It makes for the perfect corporate gift basket around the holidays. The food that it comes packed with is just right. Ready for the list? Here tis:
Now is that a list or what? All the sausage, cheese, and crackers you could want. It’s really quite affordable as well at around 35 bucks. I guess it’s not an abundance of food, seeing how the basket is 10½” wide, but that way each department of a company can get one, alright!
Once you click over to the site, make sure to snoop around a bit. They’ve got all kinds of gift baskets over there, lots of great stuff.
A ball of whacks, get it? Not only is this a neat red ball shaped thing, it comes with a 90 page guide book. So what exactly is it? It’s a 30-sided rhombic triacontahedron. What can you do with a 30-sided rhombic triacontahedron? Just about anything!
Well, it probably won’t make you lunch or tie your shoes, but it can shape shift with the best of them. Now, the reason this is in the corporate gift category is because this ball of whacks stimulated the creative right side of the brain. Pretty good excuse for playing around with something in the office huh? Not unlike some other things I’ve blogged about on here, the individual pieces are magnetic, which is always a bonus.
Just think of the magnetic origami that could be created with these. And if you also got the Magz Construction Set, you could make quite the magnetic wonderland.
Know somebody who loves to be fully hydrated but is just too busy to ever make it over to the water cooler? Why not bring the water to them? Of course, they could pull a Dwight and just drag the cooler over by their desk so they can catch up on all the scuttlebutt.
Now, the best part about this is that the desk resident can, as they say, think outside the box. Why just stick with water? It can be filled with any liquid really. Apple juice (the first load may not last quick as co-workers may think it’s beer), a tasty carbonated beverage, or my favorite, milk. One small problem with non-water beverages is that the dispenser is just a dispenser: no cooling power is included. So maybe it would be a great syrup dispenser, gotta love the syrup!
It’s less than 2 feet tall and holds a gallon of anything you can fit in there. No guarantees that it’ll dispense something like soup without getting clogged however. I’d probably just stick to water. Might want to remind the recipient of the gift that it isn’t self cleaning…just in case.
This particular one comes with 24 cookies. The types of cookie are chocolate chip, peanut butter, brownie, oatmeal spice, peanut butter cup, and (get this) chocolate-oatmeal peanut butter chunk. I’ve never had a chocolate-oatmeal peanut butter chunk cookie, but it sounds very good. In addition to those, it comes with the festive, hand decorated butter creme cookies.
You can get this gift basket with as few as a dozen cookies or as many as four dozen. This can make for a nice corporate gift basket, giving a personal touch to your kind offering. And really, just about everybody loves cookies.
Here’s a gift that I have received before, and I must tell you, it was one of the greatest gifts I’ve got in a good while. It’s a Bluetooth handset that looks like a toy. It’s a great way to make people think you have finally gone off the deep end.
The one I have is the corded version, which you can get here. That one comes with different connections for specific cell phones. It’s a great move to walk into a room while actually having a conversation on this thing. People will look a little weird at you at first, then give a courtesy laugh, thinking you are just using a toy a little too convincingly. Then comes the fun part. Tell whoever you’re talking to to hold on, then hand the handset to the unsuspecting observer. Chances are they’ll at least try to make you feel good by going along with it, then when they hear someone respond to them, sit back and enjoy the shock in their eyes.
I don’t have a Bluetooth cell phone, but I can imagine it’s even more shocking when there is no chord attached. I think this is a great gift idea for that special someone who feels they must always have that earpiece clinging to the side of their head, whether they’re using it or not.
These things look pretty awesome in action. There’s nothing quite like the sight of a little hunk of real wood sticking out of the back or side of a computer. Each one of these USB flash memory sticks is a one of a kind real piece of wood.
It’s a great mix of technology with back woods style. Passers by may think that someone walked by with a stick and crammed it into the side of your laptop. They have 1 gigabyte of storage, so they’re decent sized drives. Just enough to transfer those work documents and maybe a few songs between the home and office.
I’m not sure if these come with a cap for the USB connector. Either way, if they do or not, the recipient of this one-of-a-kind gift idea may want to be careful about leaving this lying around where trash may be picked up. There is an extension USB cord that can be purchased at the site at well. Imagine how crazy someone would look with a cord leading from their computer to a little stick. I love it!
