This Week's Top FAILs

Wooohooo! It's Friday! It's scientifically proven that Fridays are longer than all other days of the week*. To help you make the hours pass before all the weekend shenanigans can start we have put together a list of our favourite FAIL's this week.

*Based on tests made at Firebox's Close Up Science Lab

CHOCOLATE FOR EVERYONE!

Aero_header

Check out the new Aero ad:

Shot at the 40,000 square foot Lake Cunningham Skate Park in San Jose, California, the advert features 50,000 balloons that were blown up by 12 people over four full days. Each balloon was then placed in the skate park, to create a bubble-filled environment.

Now we want to feel the bubbles, too. Naturally, our skateboarding skills are already second to none (how else would we get around the Firebox warehouse?), so the next stage is the deliciously floating chocolate.

While we can’t actually make chocolate fly, what we are going to do is bring you a little bit of chocolate-y magic: we’re putting a free Mint Aero bar in each parcel we send out. Ain’t we lovely? Order anything and you’ll get a brilliant, minty chocolate fix. Tasty…

Another Friday and another excuse to post Firebox's top links from this week:

The above photo is an example of a real life application of a Fail Sticker, a product that's surely made of pure win.

What A Nag!

Some Fireboxers had a flutter at lunchtime on the Cheltenham Races. It's time to kiss your screens coz this little beauty won us some money!

Cheltenham

Kauto Star has won the 2009 Cheltenham Gold Cup, seeing off stablemate Denman by 13 lengths to become the first horse to regain National Hunt's blue-riband race, after his victory in 2007.

Now we don't condone betting, but it's nice to have the odd bet. A great start to the weekend!
