Ok all you Portal Gamers out there this post is for you that is if you can stay away from the game long enough to read it.  You must see all the cool Portal Merchandise on the market to show off your love for the game.

I cannot say I have played Portal myself, but my son loves this PC Game.  I watched him play it and it is just way beyond my grasp – I know sad, but true. My son has finished both Portal and Portal 2, but still goes back to play it.

Do you have trouble getting up in the morning or know someone who does? Well one these 7 Novelty Alarm Clocks may be just what you are looking for to solve that problem.

I just so happen to live with two people who have a problem waking up in the mornings – and it is not me !! My hubby and daughter both have this issue and I cannot stand being their personal alarm clocks. I am still waiting for an alarm clock to come out that will just grab them and throw them out of the bed. I am hoping sometime in the future that will be an option.

So I have been on the search for some solutions and figured I would show you what I have come across that are good options.

Are you ready? Lets go…..

Tocky Alarm Clock

Now this cute Alarm Clock will roll all over when it is time to get up and it will also jump right off your nightstand – yup you will have to chase it down to turn it off.  The Tocky Alarm Clock can also play mp3s and you can even record your own voice or sounds. It is available in lots of fun colors too !!

Flying Alarm Clock

This one is fun – when the Alarm goes off the helicopter flies away and the only way to get the alarm to shut off is to retrieve it and put it back in. Genius !!!

Gun Alarm Clock

How good is your aim when you are half asleep? This alarm clock works by requiring you to aim the infrared toy gun (included, of course) correctly into the target in order to disengage the alarm. I do not care how good of a hot you are – having to this the moment you wake up will be challenging to say the least.

Time Bomb Alarm Clock

It truly takes a bomb going off to get my hubby up in the morning and this may just do the trick. When the alarm goes off on this clock you will be woken by an explosion of light and noise that will have you hopping out of bed with your heart racing out of your chest. If that does not work – not sure there is hope.

Finger Dance Alarm Clock

This one takes Dance Dance Revolution to a whole new level. When this alarm goes off you have to follow the light sequence and do a finger dance to shut it up. How annoying would that be? but it would get you up!

Micro Sonic Grenade

Love this one !! This is a little bit different than your normal alarm clock. This is used when the sleeper is just not waking up at all.  All you do for this is activate it and toss towards your target. The Siren it makes is 110-115 decibels, about the loudness of a sandblaster or power saw.  There is no way anyone is sleeping through this noise !!

Rocket Alarm Clock

How about waking up to a NASA style countdown and rocket launch! When the alarm goes off so does the Rocket and of course the only way to make the alarm stop ringing is to put the Rocket back into the clock!

If you are like me then you must start your day off with a cup of Coffee to get going. It is even more fun to start you day off with your Coffee in one of these Novelty Coffee Mugs that will also make you smile at the same time.

We are BIG Coffee drinkers in my house and we have lots of different Coffee Mugs we enjoy it in. Why drink your coffee in a plain ol’ mug when you can have one of these that will make it even better.

I am going to share with you 10 of my Favorite Novelty Coffee Mugs – these crack me up and are all worthy of holding my morning cup of Java !!

Mixed Messages Coffee Mug

This happens to be one of my favorites. With this mug you get create your own Ransom Note messages. The mug comes with durable polymer letters that look like they were just ripped out f a magazine. They will cling to your mug through multiple washings but can easily be removed when you are ready to change your note. Come on how cool is that?

Duct Tape Coffee Mug

Who does not have a thing for Duct Tape? It is my go to product to fix anything that is broke. This Coffee Mug is made to look like Duct Tape obviously and is really ceramic. It is Dishwasher and Microwavable Safe too !! A great Fix it combo for sure – Coffee and Duct Tape – gotta love it !!

Tank Up Coffee Mug

Just like your car tells you when you are running low – so will this Coffee Mug. We all hate when our gas gets to empty in our car right? Well the sames goes for the Coffee in our Mugs. This cup will tell you when your are running low and need to Tank Up using heat sensitive printing.

Hug a Mug

Ever hug your Coffee Mug on a cold crisp day to get warmed up? I know I do.  Now you can ‘hug the mug’ without getting your hands burnt due to its manufactured double wall and two perfectly placed inlaid hand prints. Is that the neatest mug you have ever seen? I love this !!

Diamond Plate Coffee Mug

Now this Coffee Mug is right up my hubbys alley. Nothing like a good diamond plate for the tough guy.

We are Happy to Serve you Coffee Mug

Being from NY I have drank my share of Coffee from these Greek Paper Cups. But this one is not paper – this one is made out of ceramic and reusable.  Last year I got one for my sister for Christmas and it was one of her favorite gifts – this year my brother asked for one.  Anyone would be happy to have one of these, but a New Yorker love it !!

The Gun Coffee Mug

Do you love this Pistol Handle Coffee Mug or what? Sometimes I wish I had a gun to use on those who try and tamper with my morning coffee. Just Sayin’

Alien Coffee Mug

Truth is sometimes I look like an Alien before my morning Coffee – something just like this. What I love about this Alien Coffee Mug is that is also comes with its own Saucer (lol) !! Now that is out of this world, sorry had to say it.

Elmo Coffee Mug

For so many years when my kids were young I woke up to Elmo in the morning and now I still can with this very cool Elmo Mug.  This is too cute and if you are not an Elmo Fan not to worry because you can get the same mug with Cookie Monster or The Grouch !!!

Pig Snout Coffee Mug

Last but not least in my 10 Favorite Novelty Coffee Mugs is this Pig Snout Coffee Mug. I have been known to make a pig of myself when it comes to drinking coffee so this was an appropriate choice and one that is on my must have list.

Move over Ice Buckets and make room for the Corkcicle !! A clever little gadget that will help keep your Wine chilled without the mess.

Now I am not a wine drinker myself, but I do know plenty of them. When I came across this new innovative Corkcicle I knew I had to share it.  Even though I do not drink wine I know that no one wants to drink it warm – am I right? Of course I am.

This Corksicle is the solution wine drinkers have been looking for to keep their wine chilled without the mess and hassle of keeping the bottles in the refrigerator or getting out those ice buckets. The Corksicle is placed inside the bottle and chills the wine from the inside.

“Wine chillers are expensive and require time to get your vino to drinkable temps. Ice buckets are messy and turn everything into ice wine. The solution is simple – a giant, reusable icicle made specifically for your wine. It’s called the Corkcicle and it’s just right for all your wine chilling needs.”

Here take a look at how it works:

Now tell me this would not be the perfect gift for a Wine Lover !!

This Inflatable Christmas Tree in a Can is a great way to add a little holiday spirit anywhere. A perfect choice for the office to be displayed on your desk as you count down the days until you are off.

How fun is this Inflatable Christmas Tree? Yes it comes stored in its very own tin can and is 18 1/2″ fully inflated. The can then becomes the base and it sits on top magnetically. Your co workers will be so jealous of you !!!

Now this tree does not come with ornaments but at the end of each branch is a hole so you can decorate it any way you like.

I love it and if I were still working in an office I would have to have one myself – what a great idea this is !!!

Know someone who likes to chew a lot of gum? This Chew by Numbers Christmas Tree may be the unique gift you have been searching for.

I was not sure what to think of this when I first saw it, but I was definitely intrigued. I think kids will get a kick out of this as well as anyone who likes to chew a lot of gum. Maybe it could be fun for the whole family? Hey to each his own right?

This 5″ x 7″ Picture is created with 32 pieces of chewed gum spread out to create a Christmas Tree. Included is obviously 32 pieces of gum, picture, gum reference guide and spreading directions.

I am still unsure as to what I think of this, but I do know a couple of things I like about it – This is a great way to keep the kids busy and quiet for a nice amount of time, I will not find Chewed Gum on my carpets and under my furniture and kids like to play with their food anyways. I would just hope they would not hand it to me when they were done, although I bet it smells nice !!

Looking for a SWEET way to add some mood lighting to your room? You may want to consider one of these colorful Gummy Bear Lamps.

Ever since iCarly had a bedroom makeover on her Nickelodeon TV Show kids have been going crazy trying to duplicate it. Ironically it was a Gummy Bear Lamp that caused a fire which led to the room makeover in the show. Not to worry it was not one of these !! Her room now lights up with a Gummy Bear Chandelier, but if you want one of those you are looking at mucho bucks to get one.

So when I saw these Gummy Bear Lamps that are less than $30 bucks I got very excited to share them. My daughter who is a big fan of the show has one on her Christmas list already.

These Gummy Bear Lamps are 7 inches tall x 3 inches wide x 3 inches deep and come in Green, Yellow, Orange, Red and Clear. You can use AA Batteries or plug it into the wall, but the nest part is this: To turn it on/off you have to squeeze its belly – now how cool is that?

So whether you are an iCarly Fan and want a room like hers or are a Gummy Bear Fan or know one – these make the perfect gift.
