Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

As pointless ways to spend $59.99 go, it doesn't come much better than the Cash Canon, an Uzi which fires dollar bills surely soon coming to a Rick Ross video near you.

Because flipping out notes with your hand isn't frivolous and tasteless enough, the gun allows notes to be dispensed at a much higher frequency.

One customer posted a video of it in action (below), littering his floor with money and electing to make it rain on his dog (who wasn't best pleased).

The device uses a simple motor and rubber roller assembly that creates enough friction to move US dollar bills and other paper items smoothly out of the chamber, the squeeze trigger allowing the user to control the speed at which it is made to rain.

The Cash Cannon has proven an instant hit and is already out of stock on the official website.
