    Dang...I was just about to post that!

    Genius, wouldn't you say?

    It's a clever design, to say the least.

      I wonder if it could be ordered on Amazon?

      Hmmmm... They do have this.

        Warning, in the past the law has been rather irritable about mailed envelopes full of glitter. This might well get the person in trouble.

        That said, the camera/mic and GPS setup is brilliant.

          This is why I would try to require a signature.

            This wasn't mailed, though. It was a "bait box" the guy created himself and put on his own porch.

              There was something on the local news last week where someone ordered a glitter bomb online and added a note "Please stop stealing packages". This is so, so much better.

                  Hmmm, wonder if there's a way to combine glitter with used cat litter.....

                        A couple of the reactions in the initial video were not genuine. He loaned the box to a few other people, and at least one of them had a friend of theirs open it and provide reactions.

                        The guy was disappointed.

                        Interestingly, I think he is local and used to work pretty close to where I did....
