For those who have everything: Tap a pumpkin
A simple tool to turn your pumpkin into a beverage dispenser — and more in our collection of bizarrely elite consumer products
Halloween just got a little more festive. The Pumpkin Tap Kit ($30) has plenty of competition this season: Search the internet and you'll discover "a ton of different DIY tutorials" on how to turn a pumpkin into a beverage dispenser, said HiConsumption. But this chrome-plated brass tap "takes all the guesswork out of the equation," which is reason enough to add it to your gadget drawer. And don't dispatch it to a box in the attic after Thanksgiving: Because it's compatible with watermelons, too, "you'll definitely get some good use out of the kit throughout the entire year."
