Have you ever had the sudden urge to dance gleefully upon receiving a gift card? I’m sure you have, but until now, there’s never been a way to soundtrack that impromptu jig. Well, thanks to the fine folks at Best Buy, and surely other retailers to follow, we can now give and receive gift cards that not only contain shopping money, but also fully-functioning speakers. Again, that’s a gift card with an actual speaker built into it. Amazing!


How do the cards work, you ask? Each gift card features a mini headphone jack, a connecting cable and speakers. All you have to do is plug the cable into your MP3 player and suddenly your music collection is blasting out of a PVC card. And since no one ever leaves home without their iPod these days, the gratification of receiving and then rocking out to the gift card will be instant. Good times.
