We love Brando here at the Giz, with its wonderful array of strangely useful, odd and downright weird gizmos. And though Brian didn't quite manage to meet up with its owner recently to discuss all things gadgety, Brando's still got some good news in this economically woeful time: from now until December 31, there's no shipping fee from its online store. So if your significant other is in the running for a USB-powered, aromatherapy, LED-lit, Hello Kitty'd massaging cellphone charger as a Christmas gift, you know where to shop. [Brando]

Just look at those deals, gleaming at your with the sheen of a glossy Sunday newspaper. We've got an Xbox 360 for $150—crazy, even if it's a refurbished model. We've got a Samsung Blu-ray player for $211—decent, even if Blu-ray never gets as big as DVD. Oh, and that is a Master Chief costume that you see for under $700.

But there's tons of other stuff, including a slew of good HDTV deals, so hit the jump for the full list of goodies.

You know, there are certain things you just shouldn't cheap out on—headphones, condoms, HDTVs, and I'm guessing stun guns. But since it's probably more of a risk for the guy you're zapping, why not? The Thunder Stun delivers 200,000-750,000 volts for just 13 bucks. I'm sure it'll be fine, really. What could possibly go horribly, horribly wrong? [Surplus Computers via Gear Diary]

The stock market may be shrieking in pain, but you can drown out the agony by shopping for great deals on audio equipment. We're talking about an Onkyo surround sound system with six speakers and a receiver for under $300, or maybe a set of JVC noise canceling headphones for under $40. Close your eyes real tight and blast the ABBA, because you're about to save some big money money money money. (OK, maybe just three monies, but definitely more than two.)
