No, not really….but that’s what the headline for this article says. It discusses how office stores like Staples are trying to lure people in by offering a wider selection of gadgets and electronics and what not. This past weekend, Staples started showing ads featuring people buying gifts like a shredder and other “unexpected gifts.”

Personally I wouldn’t really think of going to Staples to do too much Christmas shopping, but as the article mentions, they are now selling things like LCD TVs and other electonics that you would normally find elsewhere. Maybe you have someone in your family that gets really excited about office things and would be very happy with a gift from Staples. When you think about how much people hate to buy ink cartridges for themselves, maybe they would make a good gift…….

All I want for Christmas is … a new ink cartridge? [Aust-American Statesman]
