Deal Of The Day: Octopus Hat
And why not? Why not go down the slopes with an Octopus Hat instead of a regular ski mask? Is there any reason you wouldn’t want to “unleash your inner cephalopod”, especially considering it’ll set you back only $12.99 to do so? The Octopus hat comes in 3 colors, is made from 100% knitted cotton…

Lighting Candles In The Modern Era
Why use a flame to get a candle going, when you can use a super cool arc of electricity. Well, we shouldn’t say ‘cool’, you know, but… you get the point. It’s called the ARC Lighter, and it uses a 2,012F spark across a ceramic tip to ignite pretty much any combustible material. You’ll get…

KFC Is Giving Away Fried Chicken Sunscreen. Yes, Really
Now more than ever, the expression “roasting in the sun” will be a little bit more than figurative. Although, technically, that’s not right either since KFC doesn’t roast its chicken. No, we suppose that if you’re one of the lucky few who managed to snag a bottle of KFC Extra Crispy Sunscreen, you’ll be able…

Deadpool Knife Block
If ever there was an appropriate look for a knife block, it’s this one made in the likeness of Deadpool’s head. If you’ve watched the movie, we’re sure you’ll agree. Reminiscent of the Vice Versa Knife Block we wrote about 11 years ago, the 3D printed bust does require some work on your part to…

A Backpack With A Fold-Out Chair is the Traveller’s Best Friend
If you’re going to the trouble of putting stuff in a backpack, it’s because you’ll be going somewhere relatively far and need to bring your things with you.

Meet The Mamma Nessie Colander
You guys remember the Nessie Ladle? It was the super popular ladle that looked like the Loch Ness monster poking out of your soup pot; quirky design and decent price made the thing a hit.

Some Guy Makes A Batsuit Out Of Tree Bark
Artists make pretty things; we get to look at them, say “gee whiz, look at that”, and then once we’re done, we just move on. That’s what we’re expecting will happen when you read about French artist Christophe Guinet’s work here. It’s a Batman suit made from tree bark, and well, it looks pretty neat-o.…

Hank The Beer Tank Is A Portable Keg
Kegs are great: cold beer, fresh suds, crisp taste. But they’re also a bit of a mess to set up and maintain, and they’re certainly not portable. Unless it’s Hank the Beer Tank, that is. It’s about half the size of a traditional kegerator, and can run off 110-240AC or 12-24DC so you can either…
