Wouldn’t it be great to never again have to fret over available charging/powering ports in your car?
With this week’s DOTW, that wish is granted. Bigtime.
You get two devices for the price of…well, a half a device? Anyway, this is a great deal: Ten bucks gets you two handy doohickeys for your car, your RV, your boat, your G6. Plenty of 12V “car lighter” ports, and plenty of USB charging ports. Your dashboard’s going to look like Ernestine’s switchboard. (Those of you under 50, Google it. We’ll wait.)

Don’t let the recent cool weather fool you.
You just know it’s going to be getting hotter and hotter, and soon. Like a good Scout, you need to Be Prepared: Stay hydrated, use sunscreen liberally, avoid political discussions with your co-workers – and keep one of these USB-Powered Desk Fans at the ready.
Normally selling for 30 dollars, because it’s a DOTW you can get sweet, sweet relief for a mere $9.99 – while supplies last, that is. So hot, and yet so cool. Find out all about it here.

Technology often goes hand-in-hand with cables and wires. Cables for power, cables for data, cables to connect peripherals and external devices and chargers and telephonic gadgets. Whether you use a computer at home, have a home office or recording studio, or use a workstation at the office, you are almost certainly enmeshed in an octopus-like tangle of cables and wires.
You could take the morning off from anything productive, and attack the problem area with twist-ties and duct tape. It might not look great, it might take hours – but the mess will have been conquered. Pretty much.
Or you can drop three bucks and pick up this week’s DOTW. In three fast, easy steps, your cables are wrangled and neatly organized. And it comes from Monster – they know a little something about cables.
So master that mangled mess today. Find out all about it here.

UPDATE: MAY 16, 2013 | 4:35 PM: It appears our phones are back up and fully functional. We thank you for your patience, and apologize for the inconvenience.
Last Friday, a power outage and subsequent surge knocked out most of our Medford store’s phone system. As a result, most incoming calls are not getting through. This is a serious situation, and we are doing everything possible to resolve it. Oddly, we are still able to make outgoing calls.
In the meantime, here are alternative ways to contact our people in Medford:
BY VOICE PHONE OR TEXT (goes to General Manager Jeff Thomas‘ cell): 541-944-4835
BY EMAIL (general info): Use our Contact Form on this page.
CONTACT OUR SERVICE DEPARTMENT: Use our web-based Service Contact Form to check on the status of a repair, set up an appointment, or ask a technical question.
We realize this is a tremendous inconvenience. We apologize, and ask for your patience while we sort this whole mess out. Thank you.
UPDATE MAY 16, 2013 | NOON: The phones were working OK most of the morning, but now we’re having some additional parts replaced – which means we’re unable to answer incoming calls. This is a (hopefully) short-lived situation. We suggest trying to call us first, and if no one answers, use one of the alternate methods above.
UPDATE MAY 17, 2013: Repairs have been completed, and our phone system is once again fully functional.
