This Gravy Fountain Sucker Gift Box is the perfect prank for any occasion! Just put your real gift in the box, then sit back and watch as your victim feigns enthusiasm and offers an awkward 'thank you' before finding their real gift inside. Imagine the confusion when your gift recipient thinks they received a fountain for their gravy that's supposed to sit in the middle of the table while they eat.

Transformers aren't just titans at the box office, they're flying off store shelves, too. Toy giant Hasbro said Monday strong sales of the morphing robots as well as G.I. Joe helped its quarterly profits crush Wall Street expectations. Summer movie tie-in toys have been one bright spot for toymakers during the consumer-spending slowdown. Hasbro has been buoyed in recent years by toys tied to movies, including this summer's hit 'Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen' and the upcoming 'G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra.'

Goldner also said Hasbro sales and profits are likely to climb for the full year. Still, weak international sales due to the stronger dollar, as well as costs related to a joint venture, crimped results in the latest quarter. Another weak spot was games and puzzles.
