The “Ruggie” – The Floor Mat Alarm Clock

Introducing a project that is still looking for some backing before it hits the store shelves.  It's called the Ruggie and it is a little rug that sits right on the floor by the edge of  your bed.  Set an alarm... It goes off and you have to stand on it to make it go off.

It basically forces you to get out of bed and stand up which let's be honest... that can be difficult some mornings.

They have thought of pretty much everything.  The alarm will not turn off unless you apply your body weight to it for three seconds.  So just stamping your foot on it and going back to sleep isn't an option.

What do you think?

They think this thing could be pretty expensive and may be even getting close to the $100 mark when it hits store shelves. Seriously?  That's a little intense for a clock that is going to do nothing but frustrate you.

Honestly though they make a great point in the video just below.  They say you can add seconds to your day, minutes to your week, days to your month and weeks to your year up and at it!  Or something like that.
