Shoots! Beat me to it!

This Bluetooth headset ships with a charging dock that you can mount to your car vent, and has solid reviews. It also has one of the most ridiculous product shots I've ever seen (above, obviously). [Mpow Knight Pro Wireless Bluetooth 4.0 Headset, $27 with code MPOWKPRO]

I wish we'd adopt something like this in the states. It sounds so much better than black friday! I'd probably wait outside an apple store to get a couple of thousand dollars worth of stuff for $300.

I would assume that it isn't just an American thing (although we're amazingly self-centered in our consumerism), but holy shit, do people lose all sense of perspective when it comes to our

I think people have a right to complain about it if they like, as long as they're not doing what this article is describing and making some innocent employee's life miserable with it.
