Customer Service Numbers...

Nothing is more aggravating than having to jump through hoops to locate a company customer service number. That's just not right. There are plenty of substandard things being sold out there nowadays. Whether its false advertising, warranties that don't honor what you paid for, etc... I could go on and on.
Well, a good place to start is GetHuman. Get information on phone numbers, callbacks, chat, email etc. Very useful for sure.

XGEAR Camping Tool...


Another useful gadget I purchased at Kohl's. The XGEAR Camping Tool is made for camping, but this handy fork, knife and spoon combo can also be used if you bring a lunch to work; on the road while traveling; or even at home if you're too beat to grab all three out of your silverware drawer :)...

XGEAR Multitool With LED...

8 Tools In One.

I have a hard time not stopping to look at the gadgets Kohl's conveniently places in their isles. I can always find something that I just can't live without...

This multipurpose all in one tool features: pliers, knife, Philips screwdriver, flathead screwdriver and bottle opener, stainless steel saw blade, and an LED light with batteries included.

I put it in my glove box. You never know...

Goya Chipotle Peppers In Adobo Sauce Rock

I like my food to make a statement. In other words, I love heat, and the hotter the better.

Definitely.

However, all "heat factors" are not created equally. If its just hot I'm not interested. If its hot with flavor, I'm all over it. Goya Chipotle Peppers In Adobo Sauce fit the bill. Put them in chili, jambalaya or anything else those taste buds of yours desire. You won't regret it, because they are delicious. Just don't try to be a hero. Use them sparingly...one little can goes a long way. Trust me.

Where Are The Cheapest Coffee Pods

I love the convenience of single serving coffee pods, but I hate the price. Oh sure, I can buy a box of around 80 coffee pods at Sam's or BJ's, but then I'm stuck with a boatload of one flavor. (Hey, variety is the spice of life, so that doesn't work for me.) However, here's what does work for me, and quite nicely if I do say so myself.....
TRADER JOE's to the rescue...
For $2.99 I can buy a box of 7. That's around .42 a pod. Then, I hop on over to their sister store ALDI and buy Aldi  boxes of 12 (Breakfast Blend is my favorite). Those end up costing approx .48 cents a pod. By the way, ALDI has quite a nice variety, and like I said, variety and choices are important you know...lol

In a nutshell, I'm no longer stuck with just one flavor and I'm still saving money. More choices, more money saved. Moreville. Moreville. Moreville :)

What Are The Best Earbuds Or In-Ear Headphones For The Money

Well, my son lost his Apple Earbuds a while back. And, trust me, that is serious business to a college kid.

He needs them to study,he says?? Since I knew he'd find them as soon as a new pair was ordered, I opted for a non Apple brand. I've never done that before, but like I said, I KNEW his originals would turn up...

Anyway, I nosed around and stumbled onto the Panasonic RPHJE120S In-Ear Headphones. Not only were they cheap (around 7 dollars with tax), they fit the ear(s) perfectly, came in very cool colors, and have incredible sound to boot.

Oh ...for the record, he found his Apple Ear-buds a couple hours after the Panasonic ones arrived from Amazon. He said the Apple buds will be his "backups" now. Sorry Apple. You may want to rethink your price a bit.

So, if you're in the market for some really good and reasonably priced ear pods, you can't go wrong with these:
