What better present for the person who has everything than a poignant reminder that they want for nothing? This lovingly crafted vial of emptiness is filled to the brim with unfettered nothingness. Free from the burden of possessions the weight of responsibility Nothing is as idiotic as it is brilliant. Indeed even old Macbeth though mad as a kipper realised that life whilst full of sound and fury (and that was before iPods) is inherently daft and ultimately signifies Nothing. And let us not forget that ‘Nothing’ is so important that most of our universe – and the contents of a lot of people’s heads – appears to be made up of it. It’s a statement an empty gesture if you will a nod at the futility of ownership and yet despite ‘Nothing’ being nothing it is of course packed with millions of protons neutrons and what have you which is pretty good for Nothing.
Price : £ 6.99

The Teddy Speaker has arrived to brighten up your bedroom or desktop with its psychedelic demeanour. It’s just perfect for the big kid who doesn’t want to sully their house or office with yet another sterile techno-cube of noise. There’s nothing worse than trying to nod off when your ears are stuffed with uncomfortable headphones and the Teddy Speaker is perfect for those of us who just can’t drift off without some soothing sounds lulling them into a soft slumber. It will happily sit on your bedside table without ruining the bedroom’s mojo because it looks just like any other teddy bear. The speakers have been tucked away in the bear’s feet and the battery pack is cleverly hidden inside the teddy so you’ll barely even notice that this loveable bear houses a great sounding sound system for your MP3 player.
