Students and overworked adults are going to love the EARINALM. Thanko's latest creation is a set of earbuds with a built-in alarm. I know that sounds super awesome, but please try and contain yourselves.

The EARINALM is perfect for people who like to fall asleep listening to music. Falling asleep with your [earphones in](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fitnexa-somnipods-3) used to be a dangerous endeavor. Good luck hearing your alarm over your [Beats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beats-tour-pro) By Dre headphones or Skullcandy earphones. The EARINALM ensures that you'll never miss another alarm again due to your music being too loud. The EARINALM has a little clock on it that you can set to beep just like a [regular alarm clock](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arc-alarm-clock). The EARINALM is on sale now with a price of around $36.
