    Marbles Gift Wrap

     

    Marbles offers gift wrapping on this brainy product for only $1!
    We haven’t lost our minds, we just know how nice it is to avoid those dull scissors and tape that won’t tear. To add gift wrapping to your order, just select the “yes” button under the “add gift wrap” section.

    For the record, we gladly break grammar rules for effect (not to be confused with “affect.”) What can we say? Sometimes a properly placed “ain’t” sounds much better than a grammatically proper “isn’t.” But we’re downright grammar curmudgeons when it comes to the erroneous use of words like “irregardless,” “expresso” and “disorientated.” In Things That Make Us (Sic), author Martha Brockenbrough gives us a snarky, irreverent guide packed with common grammar gaffes and tips for avoiding them. This helpful and hilarious book also contains letters to some infamous language offenders, including George W. Bush, David Hasselhoff and the Queen of England.
