Ahhhh the cassette tape. I remember back in the day when I’d sit around with my dual tape-deck and a stack of tapes (does that age me?) I spend hours making the perfect mix. It went something like: Janet Jackson, Madonna, Whitney Huston (pre-Bobby, of course), Debbie Gibson, NKOTB, Belinda Carlisle… anyway, those were the days.
Leave to Jamie and Mark of j-me to bring back the good ol’ 90 minute wonder. This time, the tape takes the form of an ingenious little tape dispenser! For about $25 you can give that is both practical and a gift that pays homage to the awesome 80s! j-me is a really fun site with tons of cool stuff. While you’re there check out the his and hers key holders and fun monopoly key rings!
UPDATE: Speaking of tapes, after posting about the “tape dispenser” (first picture) I got an e-mail about the tape wallet (pictured above). While in Rome… or in this case, the 80s, do as the 80s do and get your tape on!

Dude that is freaking incredible!! My sister and I used to make mix tapes from the radio, which yes, I know, is completely illegal, but at least it isn’t stealing mp3s etc. The tape-dispenser idea is also cunning – no one would steal your sticky-tape as they wouldn’t realize it was in your cassette tape!!
