Time to shop: “Black Friday” steals and deals

I guess it’s finally here. And depending on who you are: either the most dreaded shopping experience of the year, or for you brave and delirious souls waking up at 4am Friday, your favorite. I think you can tell, we’re not fond of the morning cage fighting experience we’ve witnessed in the past. The tickle-me-elmo and easy bake oven can just as easily be purchased on-line. That’s not to say there aren’t some great deals out there! But nearly all of them are just a click away. We’ve got a HUGE list – get your plastic ready.
Sock it to Me, Baby!
Let’s face it, most of our sexy lingerie goes to waste when we wear it because it’s usually only seen by two people. Socks, on the other hand, you can show off to strangers on the bus, co-workers visiting your cube, or anyone at the coffee shop – without needing to go to confession. Why not express a little of your personality with a pair of socks from Sock it to Me. With hundreds of adorable socks for men and women, the five shown above barely do them justice. Who knows? You might even wear a pair that you designed.
A Very Sunny Christmas
Possibly the most underrated shows on cable here in the U.S., It’s Always Sunny in Philidelphia usually has us stuck somewhere between complete shock and holding our sides from laughing so hard. The hilarious and unashamed non-politically correct cast has been given a get-out-of-jail-free card for their Xmas special. And straight from the horses mouth, DeVito says that they’re “doing everything we can’t do on television. It’s like basically sex, and drugs and rock ‘n’ roll. Anything we want.” Great! one more thing to add to the Amazon Wish List. A short Sunny clip and prices after the link.
New Hiker: Casio “shock-resistant” digicam EX-G1
We’ve all dropped our phones or camera at some point in their curiously short life time. But have you ever noticed that the words “shock resistant” or “weatherproof” aren’t usually mentioned in the same sentence as good looking or stylish? Casio aims to dispel that stereotype with the new EX-G1. Not bad looking at all – and we’ll add a few more buzz words in there while we’re at it: freeze proof, water proof and dust proof. Had enough? And you don’t have to be an extreme sports junkie to benefit from its toughness. It drops this December in sexy red, or standard black. Details, technical specs and pricing after the link.
California Collar Company: Hellraiser Dog Collar
Give Fluffy a bad-ass make over with this dog collar from the California Collar Company. Customized name plates, spikes, sparkles or studs (even Swarovski crystals) can adorn your best pal’s neckline and make him or her the envy of your puppy park.
