ANGRY BIRDS – Electronic Handheld Game

Everyone knows all about Angry birds even a 3 years old plays the Angry bird on an iPad, iPhone or the computer – but who wants to share your iPad with your kids right?  and they drain the iPad and iPhone’s battery so quickly – it’s not funny at all.  But parents who wants to [...]

Angry Bird USB Flash Drives

I’m thinking I should order some  Angry Bird USB Flash Drive to sell in the store – the ones that you can get from EMTEC – but I might have to buy them in bulk from Hong Kong to make it worth my while and make some money out of it.  Afterall, everyone is crazy [...]

Kurio Tablet Just For Your Kids

A tablet made just for kids and covered with rubber all around it to protect the tablet from being destroyed from dropping it on the ground by your kids.  Interesting but the price is not cheap either at about $233 U.S. dollars  – would it be better to buy a regular tablet for you kid?  [...]

Projection Alarm Clock & Weather Monitor

Now I say everyone can use a projection alarm clock and a weather monitor – every morning – don’t you think?   For about $80 – from Hammacher Schlemmer – this clock has a built in sensor that tells you the time and weather condition.  I like that when I wake up in the middle of [...]

Walnut Cable Catch

Simple and masculine enough for me – and if I wanted something to catch my cables – it would have to be this – no funky looking colored things that the spouse loved to buy.  But the walnut wood is very expensive at about $42 – so i think I’ll get my brother to make [...]

Wii Guitar For Rock Band

I have just about any kind of guitar for all the game  systems except of course the one I need most for a customer.  A Wii guitar for rock band never seems to come into our store – and when you need one – it’s even harder.  I had a customer who came in to [...]

Apple TV

Apple TV was first introduced in 2010 and I’ve heard about it – but haven’t given it a lot of thought till this Christmas.  Why?  I can’t think of anything I want – so when the spouse asked me about Apple TV – I figured I should check it out and see if I should [...]

Funky Desk Organizer

I could use something like that for my desk – because I’m a messy person and chuck all my stationary, pens and writing pads just about everywhere.  So when I need them – they are nowhere to be found – most embarrassing if I needed to write something important about a customer’s computer. This goes [...]

iXi Bike Breakaway

Will you really ride on this kind of bike?  in a suit?  I can’t see myself doing it – but if you were living in a city – well – this might even be better than a car.

Yard Sale Find

Local yard sale on FB is fun to watch – especially when the prices are right – but once in a while you have people asking for prices that I would sell the exact things for in a store – so it’s no longer a yard sale find.  These set of Guitar Heroes and games [...]
