Ultimate Prank: the Gotcha Box

By Alice Hill
RealTechNews
My co-workers are getting out of control when it comes to pranks. To me, nothing spells “gotcha” more than a “Gotcha Box” from the folks at the Onion. (Who knew they made and sold things?) The concept is simple: you place a desirable gift inside one of these hideous product boxes and watch your co-worker’s face crumble as they contemplate the Make Your Own Umbrella Kit, the ever-popular USB Toaster, and of course a membership to the Salt of the Month Club. Box dimensions: 12″x9″x4″

We Say: For $18.99 USD, this is a gift that keeps on giving.

As Sandee, our tech consultant says, “The ultimate gotcha is paying $18.95 for an empty box.”

Six bucks a box, that’s less than some gift boxes already cost…
