SnūzNLūz is an alarm clock with a sinister twist. It actually connects via WiFi to your online bank account, and donates YOUR real money to an organization you HATE when you decide to snooze! Just plug this baby in, choose a charity you REALLY don’t want to have any of your money, set your alarm and sleep through it to see it work.

This is financial darwinism, friends. The concept is definitely novel and fresh, but it’s not exactly a device I want in my house. Imagine you’ve stayed out half the night obtaining a new heavyweight drinking title. Now it’s 9:00 AM and you were supposed to be at work an hour ago, but you can’t resist the Snooze button. Thankfully, you have this new alarm clock. Now, just before calling in to find you’ve lost your source of income, you can see that you’ve donated the remainder of your struggling bank account to the GOP.

But hey! Don’t let me discourage you. If you get one of these bad boys and put it to use, send me some photos of your sleeping losses. Here’s some suggested charities from ThinkGeek.com.
