This Office Spa Kit is the perfect gift for the graduate about to enter the workplace. It's always too late that we realize how great we had it at school, so make the transition from study desk to work desk a little easier. We especially like the idea of a little under the desk reflexology for toes that have been trapped in three inch heels for hours on end. The Office Spa book offers more than 50 fun stress-relieving tips and tricks for the office.

"Author Darrin Zeer taps into the healing principles behind aromatherapy, acupressure, meditation, reflexology, and even feng shui, creating quick and effective pampering treatments that are easy enough to do on the commute, at the computer, or in the conference room."

... but only if you've got $30,000 to spare.

Dominos Pizza's Ultimate Man Cave Couch offers these features:

* Two flat panel screen televisions
* DVD player
* Mini refrigerator
* Xbox with three controllers
* Electric Red MP3 player
* XM Radio with one year of free service
* NEXTEL cellular phone and a NASCAR headset
* Two Domino's Pizza Heat Wave hot bags to keep your pizzas warm
* Coca-Cola beverage cooler
* Remote control caddy

Oh, and you also get a one year's supply of Old Spice deodorant and body spray.

(We're not even going to comment on that last bit.)

But you'd better be ready - you've only got one chance to get this sucker. You've got to be the first person to dial in during a two hour period on December 14, with your credit card ready. (We assume you'll need enough room on your card to pay for the couch plus the $5000 to $7000 shipping fee.)

And if any of you are thinking, this is kind of surreal, yeah, we agree.

It kind of feels like we were flooded today with holiday gift guides - in our in-boxes, our feedreaders and in our mailbox. So we thought we'd share with you two of our favorites.

Coolhunter's 2005 holiday gift guide is a great read. Lots of nice things we'd give as gifts (or more to the point, wouldn't mind seeing under our tree this year), in a wide price range.

(Pictured above is a recent addition that caught our eye: Faces on the Moon stress balls, from Moss. Four of them for $135. Hint hint.)

Moving right along, we'll now sweep you over to the other end of the spectrum: Dave Barry's holiday gift guide:

Hark ... Do you hear that sound? It’s the radio, playing “Frosty the Snowman!” For the eighth or ninth time today! And that thud in the yard? Why, that’s dad, falling off the ladder while attempting to hang fake icicles from the roof. And if you listen really, really hard, you can hear, softly in the distance, the sounds of shoppers trading punches over parking spots at the mall.

We really like the look of these M&Coasters, from MoMA.

But then we got to thinking ... you know those free CDs that come in the mail from the bank, or from AOL? And all those games that you bought cheap that never worked for whatever reason, but it just wasn't worth the hassle of returning the CDs back to the store to get your $1.98 back?

Hey, it's worth a thought. Sure, they won't look as nice as these, but they'd still work well, wouldn't they?

On the other hand, if you're looking for gifts, as in something to actually give someone, maybe you'd better stick to the MoMA ones ...

Now here's a great idea for a gift - customized M&Ms! You can get your message on both sides of the candy, and there are two lines per side. Only 8 letters per line, but if you get creative, we're sure you can squeeze in everything and anything you want on there.

The final cost is a little bit hefty - minimum order is four 8oz bags for $37.96, which is $9.49 per bag (it doesn't look like there's a volume discount, though, so if you decide to buy 99 bags, you're still paying $9.49 a bag).

A typical order takes about ten business days, and there are a variety of shipping methods, too. So you've got lots of times to head over there and get your customized M&Ms well before the holidays.

(Unfortunately for us, they don't deliver outside of the U.S.)

Oh, wait. Wrong movie.

But this is a pretty cute phone, especially for a Star Wars lover. R2D2 has always been one of our favorite Star Wars characters. We can never figure out how a droid can be both cuddly and brave at the same time, but the fact is, R2D2 definitely is.

Here's more about the R2D2 phone:

Whenever somebody rings you, R2 will let you know by beeping, jiggling and spinning his head. His little eyes even light up with happiness, bless ‘im. Your cute little telephonic chum will entertain you so much, you probably won't even want to answer your call. Luckily, there's a demo mode, so you can enjoy R2's antics as often as you want, and show him off to your friends.

Well, okay, we're not too sure about his eyes lighting up with happiness, but the beeping, jiggling and head-spinning sounds like the R2D2 we love.

We rather liked this. You water the can, and eventually, the bean will sprout and it actually says "I love you" on it.

What we want to know is, how do they do that?

Via CoolHunting.
