In great condition and packed in a see-through plastic case. You’ll also get a 1” x 1/2” ribbon bar for less formal dress events with a smaller gold button on it.

We’re not sure why that saying never caught on, because it sounds really dismissive.

Has (3) channels of different diameters to perfectly curve 1/4", 5/16" and 3/8" tubes at angles up to 90 degrees.

We love games you can play either at work with co-workers, at home with a kid, or at a party with consenting adults.

Hey, you can’t have everything. But you can have this nice, 1-1/2” x 1-1/2” x 1/2” LED light unit for your phone to brighten your photos. The app isn’t available, so it won’t sync with Smartphone Flash, but you can use it anytime you like with the on/off switch. Has (16) SMD LEDs, (3) light levels, a 3.5mm (think small headphone) jack to plug into phone, a rechargeable 110mAH battery and a 10” USB to Micro USB charging cord, which means you can even use it without plugging into your phone. In various colors, but you might get smart white. You can’t have everything, but you can have better lighting on your insta-lunch post.

Our squeezy emoji faced eggs are foam, cute and cuddly—perfect for lightening the mood in any office! They come in a nice (6)-pack carton, and they’re a little bigger than regular-sized eggs. Squeeze or toss them to relieve stress, or simply to participate in general merriment since they all have faces with wacky expressions. Just don’t hard-boil them. They don’t like that. Squish 'em all day long, though. They love that! The best part? No shells to clean up.

We hate having to hold onto a towel or rag. So much gripping power required! We jest, but putting on this microfiber detailing mitt and polishing away is a lot more enjoyable than dealing with rags and towels. Made of ultra-soft blue microfiber with a white elastic cuff, it’s a mitten—sort of like an oven mitt—designed specifically for cleaning and polishing.

Three words: Starsky and Hutch. You’re either thinking of that sweet red car with the white swoosh or the flashing light they stuck on the roof for hot pursuits. We don’t sell cars, but we have a 12VDC flashing amber LED with a magnetic base for the roof of a tow truck. Okay, it’s not a police light, but it’s still cool. Measures approx 4" x 4" with a 12-foot coiled cord that you plug into your vehicle’s cigarette plug. We’re not saying you should pursue anyone hotly, but if you need a safety light that you can put up and take down without scratching your paint, here it is.

o win this square board game, Hipsterology, a player must grow the longest beard by traveling around the board. You might be asked to ride a fixed-gear bicycle without losing your fedora (in the board game, not in real life), make a mix tape of bands no one has heard of, or make your own butter.

This leather German police strap with punched holes, quality stitching and a metal buckle looks like a belt for a very small person. Or maybe a stylish, tan collar for a very large dog. When we looked up “leather strap” in the original Deutsch, thinking this thing couldn’t possibly be for a waist or neck, we got “Lederarmband,” which means “leather bracelet.” Anyone who can wear this 25” long x 1” wide strap around their wrist—or even their arm—is someone we don’t want to mess with. Same goes for that dog.

Call it the best paint (and label and putty) scraper ever made.

Comes with one blade installed and two extra in the handle. The scraper to have when you're scraping more than one window. From IIT®.

Ear buds, period. These are your standard, everyday versions—except the cords on these are green, which works well on March 17, even if bars aren’t back to full capacity. They fit standard headphone jacks, and have a mic and a clip to hold it. Cables are approx 40”. No case, but at this price we recommend getting a pair for every desk, end table, glove compartment, purse and pocket you have. And a pair each for all your St. Paddy’s Day-reveling friends, too. Green wires and black buds.

The Beacon Bluetooth® speaker looks like a black water bottle, approx 9” tall x 2-1/2” wide, and ironically, it’s IPX6 water-resistant. Has great stereo sound quality (just ask disco Pat) and volume level, a 15-hour play time, and a mic for hands-free talking. It’s also shock-proof, with an attractive silicone rubber exterior. Includes a carabiner for the loop on top, and a USB cable. This is a nice piece, from SPY+. Made all bluetooth devices and Paul even gives it 10 thumbs up and he only has 9 thumbs!

Jarvis Says: Also includes a aux. headphone jack for those of us Bluetooth resistant. 

Diamond files never wear out, hardly, unless you file diamonds with them. This 10-piece set of diamond files has an assortment of wedges, flats, points and triangle files, all 6” long overall and up 5/16” wide. If you can’t find the one you need here, you probably shouldn’t file the thing in the first place.

Bigger than a baseball across the top, this is one ginormous jewel. You pick a clear or translucent-sky-blue, 24% lead crystal, cut-glass gem. It’s 3-1/8” dia at the top, tapering to point 2-1/8” deep. Could be mounted in a stunning, but really, really, really big engagement ring.

In bright chrome, it measures 14-3/4" x 14-1/4" x 11" tall with a 10” x 9” top basket and an 11” x 11” bottom. Both baskets swing, like banana hammocks, and we know how much bananas like to swing. Kiwis and green peppers, too. Half the retail price, and no need to thank us. A tiny bit of assembly required.

Small enough to fit into the included black canvas carrying case, but they open up to be plenty big for most binocular needs. These 8X21 binocs have ruby red anti-reflective lenses, roof prism precision eyepieces, adjustable focus, rubber coated armor, and a 392ft field of view at 1,000 yards.

These are, anyway. This 6-piece set of flattened diamond files are 8-1/2" long x 7/16" wide x 3/16" thick with 3-1/8" of 40-, 80-, 150-, 240-, 400-, and 600-grit embedded in the business ends. Grips are rubber-coated to protect your paws. Everybody’s got something that needs filing, and these will last a lifetime.

The 3/4" long J-hooks have threaded ends and are removable. Our each is a package of (2).

Take a trip down your grandpop's memory lane with this cute little double-barreled popgun that actually pops a pair of corks with a satisfying, well, pop.

Alas, we do, too, and here’s another one—made of foam. Quite realistic-looking due to the weathered color and texture, it has most of its teeth, all of its fissures, and deep, creepy eye sockets. A must-have for the Halloween season, productions of Hamlet and Gothic interior design. Very lightweight so it would also work for macabre indoor volleyball. The flat bottom means it will sit right up on your (actual) desktop as a procrastination deterrent.

If so, whip out this super-compact pocket star finder and find you favorite constellations. Southern sky pilots are out of luck, but you folks in the northern hemisphere will find all your twinklers.

Be careful, please, the kit does have chemicals and should not be used by young children without supervision.

Newtonian demonstrator for science teachers. Mindless play for the rest of us. These are shiny, nicely balanced, high-performance examples of the classic Newton's Cradle - a ball on one end of a row of (5) suspended, barely touching balls swings into the others, and the ball at the opposite end reacts to the collision. The 11/16" dia balls in the all-metal frame 6-1/2" high x 4" x 4-1/4" will collide about 30 times. Awesome. Even more awesome that we paid someone to count the bounces just for you! (Unpacking note: Less awesome if you just yank it out by the suspension lines and pull a couple of balls loose. Be gentle.)
