Taser and Gold House Parties Replacing Tupperware Parties
A couple new house pary trends are emerging. An article in the Orlando Sentinel says tupperware parties are being replaced by taser parties where women sell tasers to each other. The article says Taser International's release of the C2 civilian model helped sparked the taser parties. The C2 even comes in a leopard design (pictured on the right).
And that's the point. Until last year, Bevirt and her friends would have fallen far outside Taser International's customer base, which has historically been law enforcement. That changed when the company introduced the C2, a model intended for civilian use.
And its release has launched a new trend: get-togethers in the spirit of Tupperware and lingerie parties but where women sell women Tasers.
That was the gathering at Bevirt's house, where Taser dealer Melissa Norris was leading the demonstration.
As Central Florida's self-proclaimed "Taser Lady," Norris knows there's a bit of novelty to her act.
In addition to her own pink C2, safely secured in a pink holster with a sparkly pink decal, Norris came armed with a stack of pink folders holding pink literature.
Tasers aren't the only trend in house parties. A recent Marketwatch video says that people are also getting together to sell their old jewelry at gold parties. Here's the video.
