~The Fiskars® Rock-Paper-Trimmer~

One of my favorite websites and stores to shop is Joann's.  Quite frequently I am checking the website for deals and sales.  While looking for replacement blades for my Fiskars paper cutter I came across this new paper cutter: Fiskars® Rock-Paper-Trimmer.

I was drawn to this item because of the cool patterns and colors so naturally I clicked the link.  Wow!  I about fell out of my chair when I read the description of this paper cutter.   You can click the link above or read on: 

Does music unlock your creativity? This unique trimmer helps you put two fo your favorite things together-a deluxe rotary trimmer and your greatest hit music-for the ultimate crafting experience. Your MP3 or CD player runs the speakers, so no extra power supply needed.
  • Special Edition 12''/30 cm Rotary Trimmer with built in speakers for balanced sound
  • Softgrip® cradle holds your MP3 player
  • Easy to read measuring base
  • Softgrip® blade carriage for comfortable left- or right-handed use
  • Trimmer uses blade style ''B'' (45mm)
No kidding?!?  Being an ipod owner I would never even consider buying this paper cutter so I can rock out while cutting...I believe I will be playing my music through a docking station and keep my ipod away from my crafting space.  It would be my luck that I would glue the ipod to the table, better yet I'm putting my ipod at risk by being so close to something so sharp.  

This paper cutter is $69.99 on sale at Joann's right now.  The original price is $99.99.  I love Fiskars products but I'm not sure what inspired them to make a paper cutter that will play an MP3 or CD player.  Am I only one that thinks this is crazy?!?

Wow. Lots of people must be sitting at their desks cutting paper with no other means of listening to music. Strange. But I bet someone will buy as a gift for a scrapbooker.

I love Joanns too! That is quite funny about a mp3 playing paper cutter! I guess people can make anything these days! I'm sure it can come in handy for someone..lol..That is pretty funny though! :)
