Cool Gift of the Day

What it is:
An alarm clock that rolls away and hides when you hit its snooze button, and continues to emit a random pattern of beeps and flashes, encouraging drowsy sleepers to seek it out in order to shut it off.
Why we love it:
Perfect for any snooze-button addict, this sneaky alarm clock runs and hides when you don't wake up. It is built from shatter-resistant ABS and has two rubber wheels that allow it to roll off your nightstand from a height of 2' when it sounds its alarm, so there is no mistaking that it is time to get up. The wheels can move over wood floors and carpet, so it can maneuver into unexpected corners, increasing the challenge to find it. You can set the clock for one snooze cycle, one to nine minutes, before it seeks a hiding place or for no snooze cycles for immediate escape. Includes low battery warning indicator and requires four AAA batteries. Wheels may be disabled in case of extreme frustration.
