I bought a stylophone at the weekend because I remembered my dad having one when I was younger. It sucks, but it kept me amused for a while. Impulse buying ftw.

Wiki
The Dubreq Stylophone is a miniature electronic musical instrument invented in 1967 by Brian Jarvis. It consists of a metal keyboard played by touching it with a stylus - each note being connected to a cheap voltage-controlled oscillator via a different-value resistor - thus closing a circuit. Some three million Stylophones were sold, mostly as children's toys. Rolf Harris appeared for several years as the Stylophone's advertising spokesman in the United Kingdom.

It was £15 from Zavvi (formerly the virgin store). I don't know any proper tunes on it yet, it's kind of like a mini piano so I can do mary had a little lamb lol.
