I'm a big fan of the PNY flash drive designs. The sliding feature works well, and I've never had any problems with using any of the PNY flash drives I've purchased. The product design, functionality, and price make PNY easily one of my top two choices for flash drives. Hope this helps. Thanks. Matthew 7:12

Some things are worth paying for!

I've had the Geek Squad staff at the Champaign, IL Best Buy install multiple audio, video, and other upgrades to my two vehicles over the years. The Champaign, IL Best Buy staff are super great at what they do. To me it's well worth paying to have them install anything I buy from Best Buy, and they've also started to be able to have certain items purchased from other retailers installed by Geek Squad too. I've had double din head units, single din flipout head units, speaker amps, sub amps, speakers, subs, sub boxes, remote starts, power caps, backup cameras, dash cameras (front and rear), custom sub boxes, additional audio/video cables, fuses, upgraded car batteries (gotta be able to power all this stuff, right?!?!?!?), and an interior lighting piece installed by the Champaign, IL Geek Squad staff. Everything has been done so professionally and knowledgeably. They're patient and helpful, and they take the time to get to know me. It's also nice knowing that I can drop by anytime to ask questions. It's also nice that in the rare instances when there has been a problem with something, I can take the cars to them and they'll take the time to solve the problem at no additional cost. This is extremely helpful as speakers, subs, head units, amps, etc. end up getting to the point where their warranties run out. Geek Squad will install the new replacement stuff at no additional charge. I often run into customers asking the Geek Squad guys for advice because those customers are trying to save a few dollars by doing their own installs. The Geek Squad guys are friendly and give the advice, but it still seems to be a huge waste of time for the customers who don't actually know what they're doing. They end up coming back over and over again, and they sometimes end up doing serous damage to their vehicles and/or stuff they're trying to install themselves because they're not experts (even with the advice given by the Geek Squad staff). Some things are worth paying for, and getting something properly installed to me is definitely worth the price. Hope this helps. Thanks. Matthew 7:12

Needed one, and this got the job done.

I had a power cap installed by Geek Squad, and this ended up being one of the "additional" parts that the installer determined was needed once he started doing the install. I don't know what it does, but it was needed and gets the job done. I ended up utilizing the Best Buy Price Match policy to save a few bucks on it too. So far the power cap and this thing connected to it are working wonderfully. Hope this helps. Thanks. Matthew 7:12

I don't know too much about computers, their viruses, and the such. I do know that I've had Windows devices in the past that stopped working properly due to viruses. I got the Webroot 6-month subscription free when I purchased a Windows labtop from Best Buy. I took the advice of the Geek Squad person and deleted the free trial internet security that came installed in the laptop and installed the Webroot instead. The install process was easy, and so far it appears to be doing the job in regards to keeping the laptop running smoothly. There's nothing spectacular about it, but I would consider purchasing it at a reduced price to use in the future if it ever goes on sale. Hope this helps. Thanks. Matthew 7:12

This Boss Audio 2-farad capacitor has a 16VDC rated voltage to accommodate standard amps.

I upgraded the sound system in my second car after having previously upgraded the sound system in my first car. Best Buy did all the work on both. I ended up adding a power cap to the first car, and it was a huge benefit. I initially didn't add a power cap to the second car, and I could tell not having one was causing issues (i.e. headlights dimming from the subwoofer). Thankfully Best Buy had this Boss power cap available for a great price, so I snatched it up and had it installed by Geek Squad. It's solved the dimming headlight problem and also gives me the added benefit of knowing I've got some power in reserve for times when I want to sit with the car off and still utilize the audio/video system. The design is nice, and so far it's been running properly. Hope this helps. Thanks. Matthew 7:12

I'm not a computer expert, but I have definitely experienced problems with Windows computers that stopped working properly because of viruses. I got Trend Micro 6-month subscription for free when I purchased a laptop from Best Buy. As Geek Squad suggested, I immediately deleted the free anti-virus trial that the laptop came with and installed the Trend Micro instead. It was really easy to install, and so far it seems to be doing a good job in regards to keeping the laptop running smoothly without any viruses or other problems popping up. I don't know that there's anything so spectacular about it that I would necessarily pay full price for it, but I would definitely purchase it again at a discounted price if possible in the future. Hope this helps. Thanks. Matthew 7:12

Gets the job done

I've always been hesitant to purchase a personal computer because of the price and the fact that technology constantly changes. I ended up getting to a point where I needed to get a Windows computer to run a specific program to tune my car with. This Dell 4gb had everything I needed and at a price less than other computers that had fewer features. Most of the other laptops in this price range also had fewer features than this one. So far I've intentionally limited how much I do on it. I mainly use it for the car tuning program and other basic things like email and internet. I installed the free anti-virus program that came with it from Best Buy, and I also purchased a highly discounted anti-virus program from Best Buy that I plan on using once the current one expires. I think that as long as you're not expecting to use this as a "super computer" but instead let it be what it is, then you'l be more than happy with the product for the price. Hope this helps. Thanks.

Gets the job done. Very convenient

I've used a variety of beard trimmers and electric shavers over the years. I refuse to spend too much on the more expensive ones that likely do a "more efficient job" than the less expensive ones. I would rather pay significantly less and have to do a few more strokes during the shave than to have a super expensive one that requires less strokes. I had upgraded to a wet/dry electric razor and saw the benefits of being able to shave wet. I would still utilize my dry electric beard trimmer from time to time, but I didn't use it as much because of the dry limitations. Introduce the Panasonic wet/dry beard trimmer, and now I'm all good. It gets the job done pretty easily, and the wet feature makes it well worth the use. I purchased a fogless shower mirror so now I can do all the wet shaving and beard trimming in the shower vs doing it over the sink (of course you have to be mindful of NOT clogging the drain though). I'm very satisfied with this purchase. Hope this helps. Thanks. Matthew 7:12

Life changing. SERIOUSLY!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Best Buy's Deal of the Day combined with their great return policy has opened me up to taking some chances on purchasing products that I otherwise might not consider. This Insignia Toaster Oven might be the best "chance" I've ever taken in this regard. I had never used a toaster oven and didn't know much about them. For the price, I figured it wouldn't hurt to pick it up and try it out. Worst case scenario I could just return it. This thing has literally changed my life! I have a small gas oven in my apartment, and I hate the hassle of cooking with it because of how hot it makes my apartment. Plus I often only have very small portions of things to cook at one time anyway. I'm not going to turn on the oven to cook a small portion of something and would instead cook a larger portion (that gets refrigerated and reheated in the microwave-boo!!!!!) or just not cook at all. Well now, I cook/bake the majority of stuff in my Insignia toaster oven because it gives me the advantage of cooking smaller portions quicker, using up less energy, AND by not heating up my apartment. It cooks just as well as my oven, and it bakes things better than my oven because of the fact that it's cooking from the top and bottom. The heating tube on the top puts some really nice crusts on the various things I bake. I purchased some small cast iron pans and other toaster oven sized cookie sheets and pans, and now I can literally cook almost anything I need in this toaster oven. The adjustable timer and adjustable temperature settings are great. My ONLY gripe with this unit is that there's room for two cooking racks, but it only comes with one. I contacted Insignia, and they said there's no way to order another one. I also couldn't find a rack online that was the exact dimensions of the Insignia Toaster Oven rack. I came up with a solution on my own though by purchasing two small racks and connecting them together into one to make a second rack for the toaster oven. I'm very satisfied with this purchase. Hope this review helps. Thanks. Matthew 7:12

This came as part of the Compustar 2-way remote start with installation package I purchased. It works as a safety feature for when someone's working on the car. It likely won't personally impact me, but it's nice to know it's there to keep whoever does work on my car safe.

This T-Mobile complete SIM starter kit includes a nano SIM card with micro and standard SIM adapters, enabling you to activate T-Mobile's no-contract, nationwide 4G LTE service on select phones and tablets.
 

TMobile starter kit...cai I use it Outside US?

Once My AT&T Go phone no contract is unlocked by using this T mobile sim card, how can I use it in the Philippines?
I was able to use my T-mobile smartphone outside of the US (China, Japan, Thailand). My understanding is that there are two options on how to do so:

1. Contact T-mobile and have them unlock your phone so that you can then purchase a sim card from a carrier that will allow you to use the phone internationally. That sim card will then assign your phone a phone number specific to the country you buy it from and people will only be able to call/text you at that number. You'll be able to call/text whoever you want based on what plan you get with that sim card.

2. If you have a data plan and your phone has wi-fi calling capability then you can make calls anywhere via wi-fi (you can also send texts and use internet etc. this way too). I ended up going with this option. This way people could call and text me back and forth and vice versa. It was a pretty smooth process, but remember you have to have a wi-fi call capable phone to make wi-fi calls AND you want to be mindful of what data plan you have (thankfully, I'm on the unlimited date plan, so it was all good and convenient for me to go with this option). Also remember you'll possibly be limited in your ability to call/text/internet from your phone if you end up in an area that doesn't have wi-fi.
