I remember the Slinky as being really fun and really frustrating at the same time -- you only got to play with it for a day or two before it got hopelessly tangled or the metal loops got bent and kinked. But, kind of like Play Doh, the Slinky is one of those toys that has been around
forever and practically every kid remembers having one.
But the Slinky fun doesn't have to be over just because you've grown up. If you're still a kid at heart, or know someone who is, this
14 karat gold plated Slinky is the perfect gift and conversation piece. Comes with it's own wooden box for safe storage, $69.
It's cool to spend lots of money on fancy electronic gadgets but it's totally not cool to spend several minutes fishing around for a remote control to (gasp) actually have to get up off the couch in order to turn them on manually. Of course The Clapper could do the trick but who needs such a startling way to adjust the mood when you could have this gold (that's one of the last places you thought you'd see bling, isn't it?) electricity switch by Tobias Wong. Put it wherever you want (it works wirelessly) and you'll be having lights, music, and whatever else whenever and where ever you want -- no fumbling required. $150
