Random Christmas shopping finds.

Recently I've been trying to find presents for a selection of my family and the ginger one so I've been scouring high and low on the Internet.  In the process I've come across a few crazy things, some quirky things and some pretty brilliant things as well.

One of the things that caught my eye and diverted my attention was this...
It looks like fun for my kitties then again it may encourage them to try to take over the house and then the world! (Also it's made of cardboard and requires some assembly...  and they're happy enough with ordinary boxes.)

Then again if this is the sort of thing your feline overlords would enjoy you can get it here for £14.99.

I've also found a half day outdoor rock climbing taster session for  £25.00 here which would be perfect for thrill seekers or me... however, I must remember I'm not shopping for me! Boo!

So I plodded on and then got distracted by this...

Yes, a book full of red heads to colour in! Brilliant! I mean interesting and quirky.  (Yes, of course that's exactly what I mean...) If you fancy colouring in some fiery read heads or gorgeous gingers you can get this here for £7.99.

I also found a solution for taking my tea from the kitchen on the third floor to my desk on the second floor without the risk of being told off by Kev.
Yep, a mug with a lid! Oh and does it look familiar?  Yes I think this would make me look right cool and wouldn't at all get nicked from the kitchen cupboard... or I could just stick with my silver and black mug flask. Boring but practical, what can you do?  If you disagree you can get this for yourself for £11.69 here.

I must admit that these also caught my eyes...
They combine three of my loves baking, biscuits and dinosaurs which makes them amazing!
I Want One of Those had these but sold out but Firebox has them here also for £7.99 as well as...
Muchstaches! A bit late for movember but maybe next year...


Oh and they also have these Ninjabreadmen which would be great for NaNoWriMo write-ins!

Sadly I haven't used my last lot of biscuit and cookie cutters half as much as I'd like to they'll have to remain online and not in my cupboards.

So these have been the some of the surprises I've found whilst Christmas shopping.  What have you found?
