The Best Deal of the Day


When I was a punk teenager hanging out at the mall like punk teenagers tend to do, I always wondered if someone gave me a hundred bucks what would I spend it on. Would I buy like 8 CDs? A pair of shoes? A million sour belts at Sweet Factory? Would I go big on one big ticket item or diversify my dollar?

Now that I'm older, I don't go to the mall anymore. But I cruise the online retailers with the same punk teenager abandon. And as I see this ThinkGeek Summer Sale where stuff is up to 75% off, I'm reverting back to my younger self's question again: If I had a hundred bucks, what would I buy from Think Geek? Here's my list:

Electronic Butterfly in a Jar ($15), Whiskey stones ($15), Wi-Fi detector shirt ($15), Liquid Bookmark ($10), Samurai Sword Chopsticks ($10). Microsonic Grenade ($8), Plush Sushi ($7), Humping USB Dog ($6), Staple Free Stapler ($5), Swedish Firesteel ($4), Floating Match Illusion ($3), Le Whif Breathable Chocolate ($2). Bam. 100 bucks. Fake online shopping is so awesome. What's on your list?
