Connecting Point’s 43rd birthday is this month. And to celebrate, we’ve got a pretty good sale, with zero hoops to jump through: For four days, starting April 13th, we’re offering forty-three dollars off any new Mac or PC. AND we’re knocking forty-three dollars off Apple’s awesome HomePod™ smart speaker.
But hurry: it only runs April 13th through 16th — and then it’s over!
THIS WEEK’S DEAL: Sliding Cyber Webcam Security Shield $6.99
(Reg. $12.99)
The FBI strongly recommends you cover your laptop’s webcam – and for good reason. A piece of tape works OK, but what happens when you pull it off? It can leave a smear of adhesive right across the lens of your webcam, which doesn’t do its video quality any favors. Enter the Cyber Webcam Shield, a much smarter solution that also looks a lot better than a raggedy piece of tape. It installs in seconds, is dead-simple to use, and is affordable enough that you’ll want to use one on your smartphone and tablet cameras, too. Reasonable at its usual price of $12.99, it’s an absolute “must have” as this week’s DOTW, when you grab it for a paltry $6.99.
This offer runs from Friday, March 30th through Thursday, April 5th, 2018, while supplies last. Sorry, no rain checks.

Connecting Point will feature a series of staff-picked HOLIDAY HIGHLIGHT gift suggestions over the next few weeks. Today’s suggestion comes from Tom, our marketing guy.
Connecting Point won’t be open Thanksgiving day… or Thanksgiving night. And we’re not opening early on Friday morning. We’ll be open our usual hours, 9 am to 6:30 pm. But that doesn’t mean we’ll be sitting on the bench for this game. Just the opposite.
