Continuing the trend of "Fictional Things From Television Commercial Campaigns Eventually Showing Up As Actual Things You Can Buy," the Staples Easy Button can now be yours. Priced at $4.99, proceeds of up to $1 million are going to Boys & Girls Club of America, which is rather spiffy of them. Batteries are included, which is also rather spiffy of them. Spiffy all around.
[PHOTO: Marvin doesn't trust the Easy Button. Matter of fact, the whole idea rather depresses him.]
Love it. This was one of the smarter things they've done in a while.
