Google Gift Box

If you go to Google's South Africa home page at google.co.za and you see the gift box jumping under the search box, clicking on it won't do anything. Google is asking you to "unwrap the best of Google for Android and iOS." But if you click on that gift box, it takes you to a dead page.

Here is a picture of the home page:

But when you click on it, it goes to:

What a tease :)
