A Cooler for Your Watermelon
Creative minds all over the world have provided many useful high tech products for everyone, but they have also created some crazy one’s as well.
After researching crazy gadgets — one that seem the most outlandish – the Watermelon Cooler. It is a cooler on wheels, specifically made to hold a watermelon. Although the website is in Japanese, from what I gather, it can also heat your watermelon. It is available now for 19,950 yen. I am not sure if it is available in the US, but I don’t think that too many of you will be clamoring to get it.
So if you have a crazy idea — go for it! There is always someone who will love it.
