Ladies, this one is for you. Leave the messy and usually greasy jumper cables to the guys and be always safe knowing your car will start even if your car battery is not up to it’s fullest. After all, who really changes the car battery at recommended intervals, right?
Meet the Porta-Jump, your new best friend. He might not realize how good friend it really is, but at one point you are bound to find out 
It easily fits in your car’s glove box, comes precharged and ready to use, and when you need it, it can refresh your car battery within 10 minutes. It also recharges itself while you drive as long as it is plugged in so it never has to leave a comfort of your car
Bear in mind, I never tested this so I have no idea how it performs, but at $20 USD it’s a bargain regardless!

Are you overpaying for your HDMI cables? Most overpriced are anywhere from $80 - $120 USD! Don’t get fooled, this is digital signal and even the $2 bucks cable from Amazon will do it’s job fine. I got mine from eBay for $15

Thanks Giz.

Whenever I need to buy computer equipment, RAM memory, Hard Drive, or a Graphics Card, there’s only one place I go to right off the bat:
While the name may seem funny at the moment, NewEgg has become one of the best on-line superstores! They have everything and anything for your computer, electronics, digital cameras, and they sell software.
One thing you will find very helpful on NewEgg are thousands of customer reviews for almost every single product they sell. This has helped me many times before in choosing the right device.
Second thing NewEgg does better than anyone else: Lowest Prices You Can Find Anywhere + Fastest Shipping I’ve Ever Seen! Also, if you need to return something - these guys seem to be on "no questions asked" policy. I had a Shuttle PC break 11 months after I got it from NewEgg. I called them up and they sent me a new one!
Sincerely, what more would one wish for? All you may need in one place, great reviews, low prices, crazy deals all the time, and you get your things usually faster than they even estimate!
Sometimes though, they might not have what you’re looking for, or you just want to make sure that there is no way anyone would sell it for less. This is where my second most important shopping tool comes into place. Meet MySimon! He is my best shopping buddy. He knows all the good deals, has thousands of stores in it’s inventory (including NewEgg), and he knows all the prices! Narrowing down to the best deal just could not be easier.
Alas, sometimes even Simon does not know everything. In those rare occasions I search for things on the following sites:
- NexTag.com (similar to MySimon)
- PriceWatch.com - awesome for computers and electronics
- Froogle.com - Google’s take on shopping
- Buy.com - usually has great deals on bunch of items
There are two stores which deserve special mention. I’ve purchased numerous items from them and have been more than satisfied with both price and customer service!
MacMall, contradictory to it’s name, does not sell only Mac Stuff. They sell all kinds of computers and computer equipment, TVs, printers, software, etc. They offer good prices, but most of all, they are great for rebate lovers. Most of the items they offer include very generous rebates. I got a MacBook Pro last year and I got back $150 in rebates. They also love to bundle stuff together so if you buy a computer they will include some software, a printer, carrying case, and even some USB hubs to boot.
And finally, ButterflyPhoto, a company with the most ridiculous name which would make anyone wonder if they are trustworthy to even be visited on line. Take my word for it - They are! Again, the name does not explain much. They are do not sell butterflies, and they do not print pictures, but they do sell electronics for LESS than ANYONE out there. I’ve gotten audio equipment, digital cameras and camcorders from these guys for, at times, even 50% less than anywhere else!
One honorable mention, though I’m not too satisfied with their customer service or shipping, but as many other people I’m a sucker for low prices: AbesOfMaine.com.
There you have it… The sites above have been the main ingredients in my recipe for successful on-line shopping for years now; and I mean years! I go no place else!

If you are a Mac user, one of the best bundle deals on cool and useful Mac applications is going on right now. The famous MacHeist has 11 very useful applications for the price of one single application ($49.99). Even better, a bunch of money ($150,000+) goes to charity so you can feel even great for spending it
They are all very useful and popular, but the one I’ve been needing for some time now is the Pixelmator. This is a great looking, fully featured image editing application - almost comparable to the Photoshop for just 10% of it’s retail price. Great for people who would need Photoshop but do not have $600+ USD to cash out for it
Check it out: MacHeist.com
