In This Economy?

Merry Holidays, everyone!

It’s that time again. Time for all of us to go out there and spend our hard-earned money on unnecessary material goods for our friends and family. The holidays are here! Yes!

But, because 2009 has been extremely hard on the wallet, you can’t just throw your money around on a whim. You need to be sure that you’re getting a great gift, and this is where ITE comes in.

Each day, until Christmas day, we will be giving you guys some gift-giving advice. We’re going to break every day into three categories: The Good, The Bad and The Completely Bizarre. I think it’s pretty self-explanatory from there.

Now let’s talk about something that appeals to the hipster in all of us.

DAY 5 — Mustache Gifts

The Good

Eco-friendly Giant Mustache Pillow

If you’re going to give someone a mustache gift you may as well go all out, and this gigantic pillow is the best way to do that. I got one of these for my birthday recently and I’ll vouch for the fact that it is a quality product that adds a certain crazy-person flair to my otherwise normal looking couch. Plus it’s eco-friendly… which is really important when shopping for mustache gifts. Right?

Yeah, whatever. Get one of these for the mustache lover in your life now. Yeah, that sounded weird.

Available at Etsy.com for $55.

The Bad

Mustache Undies

The humor and hipster irony of the mustache needs to end somewhere… and that somewhere is with underwear.

And that’s pretty much all I have to say on this one.

Next.

The Completely Bizarre

The Humunga Stache Dog Toy

File this one under things I wish I had thought of.

The Humunga Stache dog toy is a toy that has a ball on one end and a faux-mustache on the other. If your dog carries it around using the ball side they will look like they have a mustache, which is pretty awesome.

Humans could probably also use this thing for a laugh… but it’s not recommended.

Available at moodypet.com for $12.

Oh, and here’s the rest of the guide:
