    Music for your feet! It's about time someone invented this. 

    Here’s a gadget I bet no one on your gift list owns: Toe Tunes – Slippers with built-in speakers! And why do I know no one of your gift list has them --- because they don’t exist. Only the realistic box that shows Toe Tunes in use is real. Yes, this is a Prank Pack, one of a line of fake gift boxes that show off-the-wall gadgets what looks real, until you think how really stupid the “gadget” is! From the Toe Tunes Slippers box: "Tired of headphones that cover your ears? Feeling disconnected from the outside world? Fed up with wires bumping against your head and body? ToeTunes is your solution!" More from the box: "Before you head to the pricey spa, remember that as little as 4 of your favorite tunes played in direct contact with your feet is just as therapeutic, and more fun for those around you!" That comes from a chart that shows how your Toe Tunes compares to Massage, Acupuncture, even new socks. No surprise, Toe Tunes is the no-contest winner! And I love the part of the Prank Pack that describes the included Extra Bonus that lets you turn your slippers into headphones with the included headband. A picture shows a young man enjoying his music with his slippers held tightly against his ears. Fold up your Prank Pack and put your real gift inside, sit back and watch your friend try to act like they “love” it! You could put a pair of socks inside and I’m sure they’d be thrilled to how new socks rather than useless ToeTunes. The box has full-color printing on all 6 sides. Size: 12" x 9" x 4" (30 cm x 22.5 cm x 10 cm) Cost is $8.00 or 3 for $20 on the company website, plus $5 shipping for any number of boxes. I saw them at Bed, Bath & Beyond for $5.99.
