Funny Toys & Gag Gifts at their best!


I think I missed the memo that said adulthood was supposed to be no fun—or, at the very least a “different kind of fun.” Hogwash. Give me my action figures, fun band aids (shoot, I mean “bandages”), trick candy for my enemies and wind-up toys (you know, the kind you pull backwards until they click and then let loose). If you were to take a look at my desk, you’d see it covered in funny toys that attest to my love for things that keep me young. I’m not talking about a thigh master, either. Off The Wall Toys is something like a fountain of youth. Money may not be able to buy happiness, but it sure as heck can buy a box that comes in the mail and makes me snort in laughter when I open it. And after the initial snort, I get to enjoy whatever toy it is over and over again… because handerpants never stop being funny and giving someone bacon flavored mints is always a laugh.
Now, if you’re not into keeping a bendable Mr. Bill on your desk, Off The Wall Toys is also the perfect place to get gag gifts for friends, family and coworkers.  If you’re lucky, your gag gift will either earn a permanent position on someone’s desk or will find its way into the white elephant exchange at Christmas time. Either way, it’s a winner of a gift and the laughter never ceases. Maybe you just want to brighten someone’s day with Chewbacca bobble head—or maybe you need to send an anonymous message to a coworker by leaving a bar of sarcastic soap on his or her desk. Off The Wall Toys is your place for practical joke gifts. 
The online store is full of entertaining toys, fun games when bored, birthday gift ideas, and so much more. Honestly, don’t you get bored of all the monotonous bored games (pun intended) that filled your childhood? I’d say it’s time for a round of “Oh No! Zombies!” to spruce up the family game night. Or perhaps you come from a more puzzle-oriented family? Why don’t you take a go at the two-sided macaroni and cheese jigsaw! It’s like all the puzzley fun of a normal puzzle with twice the wrong answers (well, I’m sure it’s not quite twice the wrong answers, as you have to account for the fact that edge pieces are edge pieces no matter which side you’re working on. I feel like this might reduce the wrong-answer-ratio).
Not sure to get little Timmy for his birthday? (You know, the kid from your kid’s class that invited everyone in the class to his birthday party?) There’s an assortment of piggy banks for kids and birthday gift ideas. Also, by shopping online, you don’t have to walk down the toy isle with your own child and you can avoid the “Mom! I want one of those!” screams. There are various plush toys, action figures and bendable figurines to choose from. You can also gather birthday gift ideas for grown-ups that still have a firm grasp on their inner child… or the sarcastic kind of grown up. I personally like to give my vegetarian and vegan friends all the bacon
Do you know what else it’s not too early to start thinking about? Christmas. Normally, I would say—yes, it’s too early to start thinking about Christmas. However, I went into a particular wholesale store the other day, and they think otherwise. Now, unless you are my mother, you might not go shopping at Off The Wall Toys for your loved one’s Christmas gifts. (And Mom, if you’re reading this, I want the dinosaur mug.) Off the Wall Toys is an excellent place to buy inexpensive coworkers’ Christmas gifts and Christmas gifts for the hard to buy for.  As we all know, you never want to spend too much on a coworker, but you feel like a jerk if you don’t spend anything—and—if you don’t know what to buy someone, buy him or her something useless but funny and it’ll do the trick.
Off The Wall Toys has hot holiday gifts for hipsters, kids, friends, and coworkers alike. (So if you don’t know what to get your friend that you work with who wears skinny jeans, vintage shirts and holey shoes—go to Off The Wall Toys. The bacon wallet is probably the right answer. Mr. Bacon is probably a good gift for his (or her) child.) What are the hot Christmas gifts this year, you ask? We’re not talking about the technology stuff that will be outdated tomorrow. We’re talking about bacon, mono-tusked creatures (unicorns & narwhals), zombie apocalypse preparations, pirate lunchboxes, and all those awesome things that make us laugh (and snort).
It doesn’t matter whether you want to add a little fun to your own life or to someone else’s for a birthday or Christmas (or just because). Off The Wall Toys has what you need to make people laugh and bring a little fun into everyday life.  I can tell you from experience—pirate bandages are like a “hi, let’s be friends” advertisement, handing wasabi lip balm to that annoying friend that always forgets hers is inevitably a hoot, and having a sarcastic ball on hand is a necessity when you work in an office like any one of the ones I’ve worked in.
Let’s face it. You never really know when you’re going to need a “classic disguise”, a fake mustache, or gnarly teeth; and I’m sure if you’re really honest with yourself you probably want to snuggle with a robot, too. You probably have a lip balm stealing friend that could use a lesson (and if you don’t have any friends, the “friend watch” can help), and a coworker that could use some cat butt gum. It’s probably time that you stopped reading this blog, and clicked over to Off The Wall Toys to take a peek—you’d know that it was that time if you had a bacon watch.
