LG Optimus V for Virgin Mobile USA
Getting a decent android device is not hard these days. in fact, Android phones are everywhere, but most of them require unpleasant 2 year contracts. Like many people, I hate contract phones. In the USA, that means you have to look at prepaid phone carriers and the like.
That all changes with the LG Optimus V on Virgin Mobile USA.
This phone is a game changer. The price, size, performance, everything is pretty much exactly what you would want from a smartphone. It is about as close to perfect as I can find right now in a phone.
First, let's...
LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle
Christmas shopping season is upon us again and with it brings the release of a fantastic new toy from LEGO. The Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle set is a great way to mix the fun of LEGO with the excitement of Harry Potter. Even though this set a bit expensive at $150 or so retail, it looks to be incredibly popular this year with the release of the new Harry Potter movie this Christmas season.
This toy set is brand new this year, but already it's climbing up Amazon's bestseller lists in the toy department. If you're shopping for it, expect...
Super Mario Galaxy 2 For $37 on eBay
This is a fun auction to write about. For today's eBay daily deal, we have the latest Nintendo Wii game Super Mario Galaxy 2 for only $36.99 shipped. That's a steal of a deal considering that the game goes for $50 new and it just hit stores this week.
Super Mario Galaxy 2 is the followup to the incredibly successful and critically acclaimed Super Mario Galaxy. Once again Bowser has taken the princess and it's up to Mario and Luigi to save her. It's a predictable plot, but it's also an outstanding game. In fact, it's being hailed by...
Buy HTC Incredible Accessories Cheap
One of the most exciting things to happen in the field of mobile phones is the development of the Google android platform. What Google android brings to the table is something that no other mobile operating system does, that is that it's free and open in any phone company, who wants to put it on the device. Pretty much can. That means that in the last few years we've seen a lot more innovation in the field of smart phones. Simply because it is so much cheaper and easier for companies like HTC to be able to compete.
As you...
Overpriced Baby Crib Bedding
If you've ever gone shopping for baby stuff you've probably found yourself looking at those incredibly cute baby crib blanket sets. You know the really colorful ones that people can't help but stare at and want to buy? Yep, I'm talking about those. They are as beautiful as they are expensive. That's kind of the problem.
You see, when you shop for baby stuff you'll find that there are a lot of choices. In fact, there are so many choices that you can quickly become overwhelmed and start buying things based on feelings, not on facts. Buying on feelings means...
Set of 2 Zen Gardens
I was trolling the eBay daily deals and I came across this deal which seemed pretty cool. It is a set of 2 neat looking Zen Gardens. It is being sold by eCost which is a very reputable seller.
Currently this auction is going for $15.99, which is 60% off the retail price of this item. I'd say a 60% savings is a pretty darned good deal.
The Zen gardens would make a nice decorative touch to a kitchen or a living room. They are great for relaxing and otherwise improving the zenlike quality of...
A Personal Breathalyzer Keychain With Flashlight
Every once in a while I come across something useful, cheap, and interesting. Today's latest find is a personal brethalyzer. The idea of this kind of device I suppose is to be able to test out your own blood alcohol level to make sure it's safe to drive or otherwise be in public. It's not a bad idea really.
The auction itself is selling the item for only $5.00. That's cheap enough to qualify for sure as an impulse purchase. There is free shipping on it, so again, it rocks some socks as an impulse buy.
...Nintendo Wii Auction Madness Ends
I'm not sure if you remember a few years ago, when the Nintendo Wii was a huge deal that was absolutely taking over the world. It seemed to take a few years, but it seems like the Nintendo Wii has finally lost its amazing momentum. In a few short years that it's been now it has already sold tens of millions of systems. By most measures, it is the most successful video game system ever.
When the Nintendo Wii was at its peak, the online auction site eBay was an absolute mess. Even though the systems could be bought for...
Beware Of Penny Auction Sites
In an effort to inform the public at large, especially the online auction bidding community, I write this article as a caution for those people who might find themselves using a so called "penny auction" service. These sites have been popping up a lot in the last few months and they are quite the sensation. They claim to let you win incredible new items like iMacs or laptops for literally pennies on the dollar.
However, when you start doing the math behind these kinds of sites, it certainly doesn't quite add up the way it should. You see, unlike eBay...
