Many thanks for looking into the issue so quickly, the return process sounds perfect to me. I have to say, I'm very pleasantly surprised by the level of service you guys have provided - I've had terrible experiences with Australian internet based companies in the past.

Perfect! Thanks for attending to the amendment so quickly..
Charis, Pacific Pines  QLD

Can I just say that you have the most IMPRESSIVE service that I have encountered over the past few years. Great email communication AND just four working days to get the item to my doorstep here in Auckland New Zealand. Would highly recommend your service to everyone. Well done - a great experience..

What the Excuse Generator is all about... Bookmark and Share

As an old boss of ours used to say "Excuses are like bottoms, everyone's got one"! (Actually the word he used was a little more 'inexcusable' than 'bottom'.) The point is – not all of us have our plausible excuses ready to go - we stumble, we "um", we "ah" and it comes out sounding like an excuse.

The Excuse Generator is your get-out-of-jail-free gadget, that allows you to give a completely believable excuse (which we like to call "the truth"), so you can quickly get back to a few beers or re-runs of Sex and the City!

In-laws, telemarketers, long-winded friends – there's no need to be openly rude - just grab the Excuse Generator and take your pick! There's ten fabulously plausible (because they're audible!) excuses or interruptions: Another Phone Ringing, Door Bell Chime, Crying Baby, Static, Barking Dog, Traffic, Police Siren, Smoke Alarm, Woman Calling For You and Man Calling For You.

No more waiting for your caller to take a breath – just hit the 'smoke alarm' and "Oh my, I've left the oil on the stove!" It's an instant guilt-free call-ender! Once you get the hang of it, you can even start using it on calls you've initiated yourself. "Hi Boss, I'm just on my way in – (cue the siren)...What the? Oh no! There's a truck rollover! Oh no – I'm going to be stuck here for etc, etc..." you get the idea.

So now you're just going to have to order the Excuse Generator – because let's face it – without one, you haven't got an excuse not to!

Product Specification

The Excuse Generator contains ten audible background sounds to help create the perfect atmosphere so that your excuses are believable. The Excuse Generator is approximately 6.5(L) x 2.5(W) x 10(H) cm in size. It requires 2 x AA batteries to operate (not included). The ten featured background sounds are: Another Phone Ringing, Door Bell Chime, Crying Baby, Static, Barking Dog, Traffic, Police Siren, Smoke Alarm, Woman Calling For You and Man Calling For You.

"The excuse generator is a real beauty. On the first day I had this gadget I was able to successfully deflect a couple of telemarketers using the baby crying sound, even though I don't have kids! The static sound has also been useful to get rid of customers who ring me who are impolite or just plain rude. Some of the other sounds this thing creates are also very useful…where the situation requires a quality excuse."
