If alarms cannot get you out of bed then perhaps money will. While this is one alarm clock that is reportedly just a concept, it could be a great way to get your attention or wake you up for that matter.

This is a Money Shredding Alarm Clock which tears down your money into shreds if you don’t wake up once the alarm goes off. In the example, a $100 is used and there was no mention if this would be limited to such an amount or would be variable. Personally, making it stick to a $100 bill for it to work would be bolder!

Anyway, unless you are the filthy rich kind, this is one alarm clock that should address your prolonged sleep syndrome issues. It doesn’t mention anything about what happens or a snooze option but doing away with such should be neat to get you up and about.
