Congrats to Juli for correctly guessing that “Stylish Mustaches For Girls” was the real product among Archie McPhee’s April Fools lineup. She gets to take home a pack of the mustaches (Yea?) and a $50 iTunes gift card. Now she can listen to music mustachioed. Live the dream Juli…live the dream.

Which one of these April Fools products from Archie McPhee is the real deal? Is it Gravy Bath Salts, Hot Dog Hideaway, a Social Networking Explanation Service for Parents, Stylish Mustaches For Girls, or the Shoe-Merang? Send your answer to contests@nerdapproved.com with the header “April Fool’s Contest” in the subject line. In the body, make sure to provide your shipping address and phone number. A randomly selected contestant will be chosen among the pool of correct answers to receive the new product (wink wink…if you are not sure, finding the answer is pretty damn easy).

Yeah! That’s better than winning the lottery right? Haha..seriously though, we will chip in a $50 gift card from your choice of Amazon, iTunes or Best Buy to sweeten the deal (or a product package from Archie McPhee of equal value). The contest ends at midnight tonight so enter now! Additional product images are available after the break.

The folks at Archie McPhee, one of the world’s favorite purveyors of novelty products, were kind enough to send me a copy of their book “Who Would Buy This?” The Archie McPhee Story—182 pages of the most bizarre crap that anyone ever had the nerve to sell. Not surprisingly, we have discussed many of these products right here on Nerd Approved, but the book presents them in luscious detail—including big color photos and commentary about product origins and stories about both their successes and miserable failures.
