If you’ve ever browsed through a spy shop, in person or online, you’ve probably thought about buying a mini spy camera. Perhaps you remembered the old movies where spies used the little Minox cameras. Maybe you’ve secretly dreamed of catching your roommate eating your potato chips. Or maybe you just like cool gadgets.

Mini spy cameras are cool, and getting cooler. These days you can get hidden cameras that look like almost anything, and the mini cameras get even “mini-er” by the day. One favorite mini spy camera now looks like a button or a screw, and allows you to take video covertly.

You might like to put on sunglasses with a mini spy camera built in and take video of your friends at a party, so you can show them the next day how silly they looked. Or put on a button spy camera and have some fun recording interesting people as you walk through the mall or down the street. Consider hooking a spy camera to your dog’s collar before he goes out to play, so you know what he’s been doing while he was away.

For most of us, a mini spy camera definitely qualifies as more “want” than need. You’ll probably find yourself making up fun ways to use your camera before you even open the box. If you love cool gadgets, a mini spy camera is just about the coolest gadget known to man. When you first use your camera, you’ll feel like a covert agent or an international jewel thief.

You may wonder how you ever got along without your mini spy cam. Certainly you’ll enjoy your life just a touch more, all the time, because you now have the power. The power to spy. But of course you’ll use your power only for good.
