A re-engineered mouse with a storage compartment and dispensing chute mechanism that ejects a trail of Tic Tacs when you scroll a page using the scroll wheel or ball.

Black Licorice Nibs http://www.candydir...ice-Nibs-Black.html
Not quite as small as tic tacs. [Canuck, May 19 2007]

Imps ! http://www.licorice.../Imps/body_imps.htm
These are tiny... a quarter of the size of a tic tac. Take a look at their brand name on the ejackson site. I was a bit shocked. [xenzag, May 19 2007]

a very old brand name. http://search.rubyl...d=70&sb=1&sb=Search
fascinating site [po, May 19 2007]

       I'm pretty sure I've seen one of these but it was a moose (I really have, that's not a joke).   

       Also, I thought this idea was going to be a device for either dispensing mice or dispensing of mice.

       wouldn't it be better if it dispensed your daily medication at the correct time of day? not that I have the slightest clue about your daily medication, of course.

       //daily medication//   

       Tic Tacs?
skinflaps, May 17 2007
  

       possibly a placebo for polo mints?
po, May 18 2007
  

       not to use to shine your shoes then? now a mouse that did that would be a great idea.
po, May 18 2007
  

       Maybe you could train a few mice to clean your shoes?
skinflaps, May 18 2007
  

       a hamster on a stick?
po, May 18 2007
  

       Nah, that's candy floss.
skinflaps, May 18 2007
  

       dye those tic tacs black first +
xenzag, May 18 2007
  

       Those would be Licorice Nibs. Sort of. Kinda. OK, nothing like them, but exactly the same colour!
Canuck, May 19 2007
  

       //Those would be Licorice Nibs// - there used be a tiny, powerful liquorice called "Imps". Not sure if they still exist, but they would also be perfect for dispensing in this way.... just found - see link.

       Imps, kinda like mini Fishermen's friends.
skinflaps, May 19 2007
  

       The afore-mentioned candy poopers. [link]   

       This is sooo Dissgusting.   

       <waves 2 the lovely skinny>

       when I scroll using the wheel my mouse is not moving so how is the "trail of Tic-Tacs" deposited and where?
