Buckyballs

For those of you not yet in the know, that was not a curse.  It is a toy.  Or is it "they" are a toy?

Rolling Stone magazine calls them "Toy of the Year".  Maxim calls them "Modern Art".  But its Entertainment's take on them that makes me smile..."Payment for addiction therapy not included".

Buckyballs are 216 rare earth magnetic balls (in a set) which you will not be able to put down after you pick them up.  They stick together and snap apart.  String them, shape them, squash them together like a stress ball, pull them apart or try to make one of the myriad of Buckyball thingies from a YouTube instructional video.  These magnets aren't just for sticking stuff to your fridge!

We have a demo set open in the store and many a customer has whiled away more than a few minutes playing with them (as have I).  From now until this Saturday we will be offering a 10% discount on in store purchases (sorry this offer's not available on the webstore)...  Come in and play awhile!
