This Samsung soundbar has a 37-inch soundboard with a wireless 6.5-inch subwoofer. The 300W power output provides a rich, surround sound feel. Bluetooth connectivity, HDMI and USB ports let you connect this soundbar to any device. Control this Samsung soundbar using your phone or mobile device with the Samsung Audio Remote app.
I have some hearing issues, so in order to clearly hear the TV, the volume is always too loud for the rest of the family. With the Samsung sound bar, I am able to select for TV or movie, and get a much clearer sound without blasting the volume (unless I want to!) It paired automatically with my Samsung TV and BluRay player, and was easy to pair with my iPad and phone to listen to Pandora, etc.
Control media playback, adjust the volume and answer and end calls on your Apple® iPod®, iPhone® or iPad® with these Apple EarPods™ MD827LL/A, which feature an in-line remote and mic for ease of use.

I appreciate these ear pods for a number of reasons:
They are small and portable, and easy to carry with me.
I can use the built-in microphone with my computer for speech recognition, and I can use it with my tablet or phone for Skyping.
They don't amplify the sound of my own chewing and swallowing like in-ear buds do
Being slightly hard of hearing, and I have to turn the cheap over-the head headphones to near max volume to clearly understand words on some videos, and this bothers the person sitting next to me. These have the sound directly in my ear so I can hear well at lower volume with no "sound leakage".
Good quality over-ear headphones block out most noise, which is great if I really need to concentrate, but often I have other responsibilities to deal with, such as answering my kids questions, or letting the dog out when she barks, or investigating the crashing noise from the next room. With these I can still hear outside sounds while I am wearing them, so I am more comfortable wearing these around the house.
I can easily wear only one earpod at a time, so I can pay attention to what is going on in the room, but still hear if a phone call on hold actually connects me with a live person.
Finally, I sometimes get insomnia, and listening to music or a familiar audiobook helps me go to sleep, but I can't play this out loud or it keeps my spouse awake. Other headphones are really uncomfortable to wear in bed, but these are small enough that they are comfortable, so I get to sleep.

I'm very happy with this Luna charger. I bought 3 of these on sale, and always carry one with me. It completely charges my phone and has left over battery to spare. When I was addicted to Pokemon Go, it kept my phone battery charged up, and I could share the charge with my friend whose phone battery was dying. I can charge my iPad from it, as well, and it seems to charge as fast as a wall outlet would. The only issues I've had was that once I accidentally turned on the flashlight feature while it was in my purse, and once my phone died while plugged in, I think because I neglected to push the button on the Luna charger after plugging it into the phone. (On the other hand, it could have just been my phone, which is very picky about the charging cord connection.)
Protect yourself against identity theft with this Insignia™ NS-PSJMCC countertop mail shredder, which offers a compact design and shreds up to 6 sheets of paper per pass. The 4.7" throat provides ample space to shred unwanted bills and credit cards.
This shredder does a good job - BUT it has an opening that is not large enough to accommodate a full sized sheet of paper, so every page you put in will have to be folded, and since it can only take 6 sheet thickness at a time, this means it can really only take 3 sheets of paper at a time because you have to fold them all first. Annoying if you have a lot of shredding, but not a problem for one or two bills.
Jot down notes, musings or deep thoughts in this Moleskine ruled pocket notebook that features a cardboard-bound cover with rounded corners and elastic closure for easy use on the go. The ribbon marker holds your place in the pages.
There is just something so satisfying about the look and feel of a moleskin. The leather binding, the sewn pages, the ribbon placemark and the elastic that keeps it shut when I toss it in my backpack, suitcase, or glovebox, and that holds in the souvenir napkins and pressed flowers. I use the moleskin for journaling when I travel. It fits easily into a pocket, backpack or purse, and I keep it handy to note my thoughts, or record the location of a photo, or to remember the name of a park or to sketch the landscape, or describe a special rock formation. Writing in it, I always feel like a traveler from back in the day, before laptops and blogs, when notebooks were leather bound because they needed to be sturdy to travel to exotic places and through all kinds of weather. So even if my work will not become the next travelogue, I can feel like a travelogue author while writing in it!

I got this when my laptop battery died one hour into a 5 hour road trip (I was the passenger). I had a lot of work still to do and needed a power source. Stopped at Best Buy and picked this up, and had no problems powering my laptop, and even recharging it while I worked. My only (very minor) issue was that it was difficult trying to plug in the 3 prong computer cord into the articulated plug. Once I was plugged in, it worked great. So maybe the lesson is to plug your device into the power inverter first (where you can use 2 hands), then plug the inverter into the car socket - problem solved!
