Alarm Clocks that will wake you up...whether you like it or not.

Like most people, I'm not an early riser. Unfortunately, like many of you students out there, the world doesn't understand my 14 hour sleep requirements, so I need to adjust especially since I was late for work today! My first step is getting a good alarm clock. Or a really cool one.

So, after a little poking around, I have found a few unconventional alarm clock designs that will turn waking up into an...experience:

1. The Carpet Alarm Clock

This alarm clock certainly doesn't sit on the bedside table! When the alarm goes off, the only way to turn it off is by standing on it. This means that you will need to physically get out of bed to turn it off. By the time you're up, you should be at least partially awake, and good to start your day.


BanClock Alarm Clock

"Change" the way you wake up in the morning. If you want to keep sleeping, it's going to cost you with this alarm clock. When it goes off in the morning, put in a coin to keep snoozing for a few more minutes. If you want to save your money, then you better get out of bed!



Water Powered Alarm Clock


Everyone wants to save the environment these days. Now you can do your part. we all know that clocks are one of the leading sources of carbon emissions, especially all those gas guzzling grandfather clocks out there!
Now, I may be a little off in my environmental research, but that doesn't change the fact it's kinda neat to have a water powered clock.

Clocky

Clocky is an alarm clock that actually jumps from your table. It then proceeds to roll around your room to hide. If that isn't jarring your slumber enough, it beeping the whole time. the only way to turn Clocky off is to get out of bed to go find it!

At least it's not the usual alarm clocks that you can easily turn off. It will be a challenge to turn the sound off.

Clocky just looks so cute but I bet you'll get really pissed of by it because you need to find it to turn it off.
