    Somewhere in Poland, there's an unofficial PS3 bundle floating around with Ratchet & Clank, Gran Turismo Prologue, Ridge Racer 7 and...The Bible? More »

    Weird Combo of the Day: Bailey's Irish Cream With Free Nivea Skin Cream

    I have to share this submission for a booze-related non-gadgety Weird Combo of the Day, which we get more often than not. What are these people thinking? Are the people in charge of product synergy more than occasionally enjoying the products they're synergizing? Perhaps. Or it could be that in Shanghai reader Charles' neighborhood, they're just making loose associations between these two types of creams. No matter; the Nivea probably tastes rich going down too. [Thanks Charles!]

    Weird Combo of the Day: Face Wash Comes with Free Earbuds

    In the market for some Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash? Also in the market for some low-end earbuds? Weird! This combo, found at a Target, is apparently designed for you and your completely irreconcilable needs. Seriously, which genius marketer came up with this idea? [Consumerist]

    Weird Combo of the Day: Bottle Of Wine With Free Pedometer

    Once again, we revisit our old friend Weird Combo of the Day. Today we've got a bottle of Red Cliffe Sauvignon Blanc, which comes with one free pedometer with purchase. Pedometer? Because you want to count how many steps it takes to walk to the bathroom after you've downed that bottle? We're confused too. [Thanks Darren!]

    Microsoft Surface Model Now American Gladiator

    Remember that Microsoft Surface model? The one that was a competitor on American Gladiators last season and actually managed to win the whole thing? She's actually a Gladiator now (her name is Jet), and really beefed up for the part. We would make a multi-touch joke here, but she'd break our fingers off and shove them into our eyeballs, so we won't. Hit the jump for her new photo. More »

    Weird Combo Of The Day: Nail Clipper/Butane Lighter

    Behold, the 2-in-1 nail clipper and butane lighter. Because as we all know, the only way to properly dispose of your body's nail waste is miniature, ritualistic burning. $2.68 with free shipping—or $1.34 per function. [dealextreme] Thanks Martin!

    Weird Combo of the Day: Free iPod Nano With Twelve-Pack of Caulk

    Oh, caulk! Is there anything you can't do? Not only do you allow us to plug up holes by squirting your oozing, white fluid-like substance all over the place, but you come in a long and pleasing missile shape. And if you get too difficult to clean up after using, all we have to do is cut off a bit of the tip! How convenient. And now you even come with a free iPod nano if we buy 12 of you? C'mon! How can we not love caulk? [Found in Egersund Norway thanks to Erlend]

    Weird Combo of the Day: Microsoft Surface Model is Also an American Gladiators Contestant

    Has it really been that long since we've had a Weird Combo of the Day? Well, it's back, and we've got an especially weird Weird Combo of the Day for you today. Do you remember Monica, the woman that's in all the press photos and web videos for Microsoft's Surface table? Turns out she's a contestant on American Gladiators as well. Don't believe us? Hit the jump. More »

    Weird Combo of the Day: Five Dice Free With Glue

    This has to be one of the weirder combos we've seen, but Ricardo sent in this picture of a tube of glue that comes free with a dice game in his Portuguese supermarket. We know whenever we have to do some home repair we always wish we had some dice to throw around, and we definitely know that whenever we're playing dice, we wish we had glue handy. [Thanks Ricardo!]

    Weird Combo of the Day: PS3 Kiosk With HD DVDs

    Seen at Wal-Mart, the finest high-tech outlet in the US, this PlayStation 3 store display has not just PS3 games and Blu-ray movies, it even has HD DVDs as well! No wonder its console costs so much. Hidden HD DVD support that nobody knew about! Click in for a better view. [Thanks Tipster!]

    Weird Combo of the Day: Clueless DVD With Free Transformers Beach Ball

    This is probably one of the weirder weird combos of the day we've posted. How the hell does a Transformers beach ball fit in with a Clueless: Whatever! Edition DVD? [Walmart - Thanks Jack!]

    Weird Combo of the Day: Free Phone Charge Adapters with Jim Beam Long Black

    If there's ever a pattern with these weird combo of the days we do, it's that people like to bundle things with booze. We suppose you still need to get stuff done when you're drunk. That's why this set of phone charging adapters free with every 4-pack of Jim Beam Long Black isn't really a surprise. You can't drunk dial when your phone's not charged. – Jason Chen More »

    Dealzmodo Weird Combo of the Day: Cheap Xbox 360 with Random Free Crap

    Maybe Office Depot is just clearing out all of their old junk, including the Xbox 360 Premium, or maybe there is a missing connection between all of this junk that I just can't see. Add the Xbox 360 Premium system to your cart and apply coupon code 95938435 for an instant 15% off, bringing the price down to $340. Then it starts getting funky. Use coupon code 038065207 for a free Bluetooth wireless headset, 027283925 for a free Hi-Fi CD stereo radio, 099288885 for a retro cold/warm mini refrigerator and 079176844 for a Padfolio with accessories. I need the CSI crew to figure out the link between all of this odd junk. –Travis Hudson More »

    Weird Combo of the Day: Retractable USB Mouse with Johnnie Walker Black Label

    Out of all of the weird combos of the day this has to be my favorite. You can get a free retractable USB mouse with the purchase of good 'ole Johnnie Walker Black Label (it is Scotch whiskey for those unaware). More »

    Weird Combo of the Day: MP3 Player Tote with Hair Gel

    This weird combo comes from a CVS Pharmacy. I still don't understand the link between an "MP3 tote" and cheap hair gel, but I don't care because that is the same crappy hair gel that I use and I am looking forward to getting an MP3 tote with my next purchase! Thanks, Derek and Catelyn! –Travis Hudson

    Weird Combo of the Day: Batteries & Soccer Ball

    From this packaging, one could assume that Duracell sponsors some variety of soccer somewhere in the world and that nothing special is going on. OR, one could instead assume that soccer balls have required batteries all this time and that's why we suck at all sports. More »

    Weird Combo of the Day: Anchorman DVD, Cheap Watch

    We aren't really sure where this one came from, it looks like one of those warehouse stores like Sam's Club or Costco, but nevertheless it makes absolutely no sense. I have seen Anchorman a few times and I remember no funny jokes or anything related to extremely cheap digital watches. More »

    Weird Combo of the Day: iPod Car Kit and a Diamond Watch?

    Kelton from Albuquerque sends us today's Weird Combo of the Day he found at a local Macy's store: It's an iPod car kit that includes a free watch spangled with the cheapest rhinestones this side of the Rio Grande. How tacky! More »
  • #software

    Weird Combo of the Day: Gas, Smokes, Booze, Vista?

    Reader, vB, found this convenience store in Hong Kong selling Windows Vista and Office alongside the batteries, and of course, lotion. So, is this store suggesting that Windows Vista may help with promiscuous activities traditionally reserved for batteries and lotion? –Travis Hudson More »

    Weird Combo of the Day: Free Knife with Booze

    Now if the knife packaging could only be opened through a failed breathalyzer, we'd really have something. More »

    Weird Combo of the Day: Schick Quattro with Earbuds

    Found in a Brooklyn Target, this Schick Quattro Titanium razor implies that a) it's a great idea to shave and listen to music at the same time (which it totally is), and b) you already have something to listen to. These look like some fairly decent headphones at least. More »

    Weird Combo of the Day: Free LG Chocolate Phone with Pizza

    We're aware that Pizza Hut has some kind of deal with Verizon so you can get a Chocolate cellphone with purchase of a large pizza. But seriously, do these two things go together? Should they? – Jason Chen More »

    Weird Combo of the Day: Vodka & Headphones

    At a 7-11 in Taipei, boozers can acquire a free pair of knockoff iPod headphones with their purchase of Absolut Vodka. And even in this blurry picture, one can appreciate the craftsmanship of the wrap-around casing that intent. More »

    Weird Combo of the Day: iTunes Card Free With Zune

    Hey, this looks like a great deal from CompUSA in Spokane: Buy a Microsoft Zune and you get a free $15 iTunes gift card. Wait a minute. iTunes? Zune? What's wrong with this picture? Note to CompUSA Corporate: iTunes songs won't play on a Zune. More »

    Weird Combo of the Day: Celebrate With Injury Clean-Up Items

    In our ongoing series where we show you bizarre juxtapositions of items from all over the world, the next Weird Combo of the Day fits in well: What better way to get people to buy a bottle of sparkling wine from this Swedish store than to include a package of colorful Q-Tips and a few Band-Aids hung around the bottle's neck? It's time to celebrate! Then let's beat each other up and patch each other up after that! Yeah! More »

    Weird Combo of the Day: Free Batteries With Your Booze

    We've heard of getting a free ice cream scooper with the purchase of two boxer briefs, a free calculator with a pair of socks, and now you can get a couple of free Maxell batteries when you buy a bottle of Japanese grog, or as they call it, sake. Is this some kind of ancient samurai hangover cure? More »
  • #gadgets

    Weird Combo of the Day: Free Calculator with Purchase of Socks

    Meggghhaaannnn Marco of the Consumerist stumbled upon this weird combo at her local Meijer. Free calculator with purchase of 2 pairs of socks makes as much sense as free ice cream scooper with purchase of two boxer-briefs. Or free lawnmower with purchase of a used 1992 Honda Civic. – Jason Chen More »
