Cool Gift of the Day
Monday, December 26, 2005
What it is:
Reusable, gel-filled icecubes that have a tiny light inside.
Why we love it:
Some gifts are handy or useful, they help the recipient with some particular goal, or make life easier. These are great gifts, we give them all the time. Sometimes, however, you want a gift that is just fun, not useful, not time-saving, just fun. And preferably shiny. Litecubes meet all the requirements. They're a great gift for anyone who loves throwing parties or unique ways of decorating. Filled with a non-toxic, refreezable gel, the cubes light up when tapped against a hard surface and add a luminous glow to drinks, punch bowls, centerpieces, hot tubs, anything you can think to toss them in. The cubes come in red, yellow and green and will burn brightly for up to 20 hours. Great for themed parties, night time events or just a really futuristic soda. They may not be useful, handy or time-saving, but that doesn't mean they won't make a great gift.
Who we'd give it to:
Party mavens, ravers, sci-fi fans, teens.
