Worried about your appliances during storms? Our small, three-prong plug-in transient surge protector 1-1/2" x 1-1/4" x 1" (with no female end) plugs into a single outlet, whether on an outlet strip or an outlet receptacle. It turns the entire receptacle into a surge protector, and protects your wiring from high-voltage spikes. It works by directing the surge through itself and away from your valuables. It has an indicator LED and is fuse protected but, again, has no outlets on it. A very handy item. UL listed.

No little plastic gemstones or paper clips inside, just a fish-eye lens at the business end of this toy so anything you point it at is viewed as a kaleidoscopic treat. ("Look how pretty my desktop is!") Measures 4-1/4" long x 1-3/8" dia with a wrist strap. And kaleidoscope can too be a verb, because we said so.

Finally, a planet that lives up to its name. The Greek root for planet means "wanderer," because, unlike the stars, the planets' paths were an unpredictable mystery to them. This hard-plastic mini-Earth is blue/green/white (White? Think polar ice caps.), 3-1/2" dia, and has an internal motor with an offset cam. Turn it on and watch it wander peculiar paths across the floor to amuse you or the cat. Wanders best on hardwood or tile. You'll need to add a single "AA" battery

Look! Up in the sky! It's a screeching flying monkey to the rescue! And at a screechingly low price. Our hero is an 11" long stuffed monkey in superhero togs (a cape, and maybe a mask or hood, depending on his sartorial whim). Put two fingers in the little pockets on his paws, pull his bungee arms back, and let him go. He'll fly a good 25 feet or more, issuing hideous monkey screeches all the while, faster than a flying nun and able to brighten up a day in the office in a single bound.
