1. Japanese Apology Services - several companies in Japan would send out an envoy to apologize to someone for you
2. The Las Vegas Hangover Bus - this is an actual hangover treatment, with IV hydration and anti nausea pills included in the service
3. The Vending of "Official Irish Dirt" - buy original soil from Ireland
4. Japanese Ear Cleaning Parlors - yes, these's a fetish like that
5. The Hourly Nudist - hire a naked cleaning lady (or gentleman)
6. Rent a Significant Other in China - it seems like faking a relationship is a big deal in China, and you can hire a professional girlfriend/boyfriend to accompany you at, say, family dinners
7. Goldfish Leasing - feeling lonely during a business trip? The hotel room feels empty? Hire a company that's going to provide you with a temporary goldfish companion
8. Snake Massage - yup, snakes can be massagers
9. Grandmas for Hire - you can hire a grandma in Australia

12. Anonymous Nose Hair Notification - another service you can pay for in Japan. This one notifies your friends that they should probably have their nose hair plucked. Anonymously, of course. You don't want to cause a faux pas between you and your friend, do you?
13. Ashes to Portraits - did your husband die and you had him cremated? Why not turn his ashes into a portrait?

15. Chicken Trial Rentals - you get a chance to play with poultry commitment free
