I love this idea because as a kid, who doesn’t want to be a fireman (or firewoman)? Well, you can relive your childhood dream everyday when you whip out your fire hose wallet. Handmade by a fireman’s wife, each wallet is unique and is made from real retired hoses. Since they’re unique, each wallet will vary in distress marks.

Putting business cards into your Rolodex is so 1999. It’s time to upgrade your life and use this mini business card scanner. Then, of course, recycle that business card since you no longer need it!
Simply slap that card onto the mini flatbed scanner-looking thing, and hit scan. It then takes a photo of the card and uses OCR software on your computer to convert the printed text to editable text. Sorry, Windows only!

I’m tired of carrying around 6 foot USB cables when I only need a few inches (that’s what she said). When I travel I mostly use the cables just for charging – not so much real data transfer. That’s where these come in. Small, lightweight and awesome.
