Get this and you definitely won’t need idea #5. We’ll let the company describe this. Our mouths are full.
“The pumpecapple features three layers of pie and cake: a pumpkin pie baked in a pumpkin spice cake, the bakery’s award winning pecan pie baked in a chocolate cake and an apple pie baked in a traditional spice cake.

Who hasn’t mysteriously lost their underwear somewhere and been left wondering what to do? Why not dump some water on a cloth pellet and watch magic happen? Remember, in an undies emergency, damp underwear is better than no underwear. Or something.
2: Knee-high ugly gay unicorn socks
Sure, ugly Christmas sweaters are a thing now, but what about ugly gay Christmas socks? It’s about time someone got creative! Speaking of creative, the same design comes available as crew socks for both men and women.
1: A genderless statement of mild interest
Make it a holiday to remember when you give your sweetie this generic statement of ownership and mild interest. Engagement ring? Too cliché. Actual jewelry? Too expensive. Here’s just what you need when you know that the person you brought to holiday dinner probably won’t be there next year.
