Over at House Of Rave it’s been busy because of the Christmas holiday shopping season. We’re always tickled by the surprise hit products that seem to sell like crazy during the holidays.
Every year we see odd products that previously didn’t really sell, then all of a sudden see huge spikes in demand. Often it’s products that are unexpected hits, the manufacturer runs out of stock, so it goes out of stock at most stores, so people flock to whatever store they can get it at.
By far, the most demanded item we saw on HoR this year was this Lava Plasma Lamp:
It’s basically a Lava Lamp that has one of those electricity-looking plasma balls inside. It’s a new product and actually looks like a slick little room decoration…which makes it prime gift-giving material.
Unfortunately the Lava company didn’t anticipate such a high demand for it (likely because this tight economy doesn’t permit companies to easily extend huge lines of credit for large manufacturing runs). Or maybe there was a fire at the warehouse and they all got burned up. Who the hell knows. The end result was EVERY store was sold out except us….for a while.
Eventually our stock ran out and we had to pull it too.
Another funny runaway product line this year was BACON stuff. Yes, bacon! These are some of the items that recently came out and started selling REALLY well this holiday season:
Bacon Bandages:
There’s a whole lineup of these novelty bandages, and by far the bacon strips sell the best.
Bacon Gumballs:
Why bacon flavored gumballs sell is unknown….we guess people just LOVE bacon.
Bacon Toothpicks:
Not even kidding…
Who would’ve thought the American public has such a fascination with BACON products? Like the popular Lava Plasma Lamp a lot of these bacon-related products sold out quickly too.
Another weird item that really took off this season was the Gravy Fountain Gag Gift Box:
It’s a fake gift box you put a real gift inside to fool your unsuspecting subject. We presume this gag box is great for White Elephant gift exchanges, hence the popularity. What’s weird is there are other gift boxes like this, but by an exceedingly large margin the gravy fountain box was the most popular. Baffling and kind of hilarious the items that strike a nerve with the general public!

HouseofRave is moving to newer and larger servers to handle increased traffic and bandwidth. Our previous servers were starting to feel the stress of increased traffic and video downloads and would frequently go offline for hours. This is unacceptable. We want our visitors and customers to have full access to HouseOfRave 24/7, so we have taken the liberty to upgrade to better servers.
We apologize for the downtime, but it will be worth it! Faster video downloads and more videos will be made available. We will also update the site with more products soon as we go back online. Please feel free to call us at 512.386.7544
