Joe received his order from DiscoverThis.com today and yes, they did indeed wrap the items for free. Too bad they wrapped them together as one unit.

For the record, we’re not trying to shame DiscoverThis.com too badly. They sell cool toys (this page alone could keep me occupied for my entire childhood) and Joe says they shipped out his order pretty much instantaneously. We’re just amused, as is Joe, about their decision to wrap his gifts up as one unit. It’s weirder still when you notice that the items are duplicates, which makes them even less likely to be meant as a single gift. But it was free!
