One of the greatest nights of the month was last night: Shop ‘N Sip. The first Thursday of every month, Hillcrest merchants stay open late so people who don’t leave work until 6 (me) can come peruse the stores while partaking in wine or beer.* Given that I had another engagement last night, I could apportion a limited time at Shop ‘N Sip which meant that I only had time to visit one store. So, duh, I went to Box Turtle. There were all sorts of new, fun things in there but one item in particular sticks with me today. The Lego® lookalike Building Block Speaker.
Building Block Speaker available at Box Turtle, $24.25.
Oh clever production companies… taking advantage, yet again, of us folk born in the 80s. We truly are hyper-nostalgic for our childhoods which means big bucks for companies manufacturing anything resembling a toy we possibly saw a commercial for at age 5. Whatever, I’m getting one of these.
Specs:
*That is unless you get there at the end of the night and the hoarders have drunk it all.
