Just in time for holiday decorating!
Look around your office, be it at home or work. Or your dorm room. Or that spot in the kitchen or den where the family computer lives. Or anywhere a spare USB phone charger could plug in (like, say, a Christmas tree). Now imagine this location brightened by a series of eight brightly-lit, color-cycling stars. Imagine the smiles, the uplift, the raising of spirits of you and everyone around you. A priceless reaction – but one you can own for under a buck.
This nine-foot light chain is affixed with eight LED-driven clear stars. No batteries or AC outlets are necessary, since it draws all the power it needs from any USB port. And the colors – the colors! Each star cycles through five different colors (red, green, purple, blue, and yellow). That’s a lot of environmental enhancement for 99 pennies!
- Nine-foot cord (will reach up to nine feet)
- Eight individual star-shaped lights
- Cycles through five vivid colors: red, green, purple, blue, and yellow
- Bright colors but virtually no heat, thanks to cool, long-lasting LED technology
- Great gift item for friends, family, co-workers (and if you’re already doing some holiday shopping, an ideal stocking stuffer)
- Plug ‘n’ Play – and it shuts off when you shut down your computer
- The USB-Powered Star-Shaped Light Chain with Color-Cycling LEDs retails for $19.99. This week, it can be yours for an insanely low 99¢.
This offer runs from Friday, November 6th through Thursday, November 12th, 2015, or while supplies last. Sorry, no rainchecks.

iMac family revamped, including new 21.5-inch Retina 4K model
The iMac® family now includes the Retina® 5K display on every 27-inch model, and a stunning new Retina 4K display on the 21.5-inch model.
Both Retina displays now feature a wider color gamut that delivers more available colors so photos and videos appear even more true-to-life. More powerful processors and graphics, two Thunderbolt 2 ports, and new storage options that make the high-performance Fusion Drive even more affordable are also included.
Along with the Retina models, the 21.5-inch iMac models feature faster processors and graphics, and a 1TB hard drive. All iMac models come with the all-new Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse 2®. And customers can choose to configure their iMac with a Magic Trackpad 2® instead of Magic Mouse 2.
New Magic Keyboard, Magic Mouse 2, Magic Trackpad 2 input devices announced
The new Magic Keyboard, Magic Mouse 2, and Magic Trackpad 2 feature all-new designs for increased comfort and capabilities, and rechargeable batteries that are more convenient and environmentally friendly. And the new Magic Trackpad 2 brings Force Touch to the desktop for the first time, adding a new dimension to the iMac experience.
The new Magic input devices pair automatically with your Mac as soon as they are plugged in via the Lightning® to USB charging cable, and can last about a month or more on a full charge.
Apple, the Apple logo, iMac, Retina, Magic Mouse 2, Magic Trackpad 2, and Lightning are trademarks of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries.

One station to join them all, and on a counter charge them. With four outlets spaced to accommodate bulky AC adapters, as well as two USB charging outputs, this six-device charger station is perfect for organizing and charging your MP3 player, cell phone, digital camera, or any other portable electronic device. Not only that, but its built-in surge protection guards your precious from wayward electrons.
Charging stations like these normally sell for 60 bucks and up. Our everyday discounted price is $49.99. So how can we possibly afford to sell it this week for a rock-bottom $1.99?
The answer to that question is to dye for. No, that wasn’t a misspelling, just a truly awful pun. You can’t really tell from the photo above, but the color of the plastic on this device is… well, it’s odd. It’s the color of those nicotine-stained doilies at your chain-smoking great Aunt Tilly’s house. A color borrowed from the palette of absinthe-induced hallucinations, of smoke-damaged ivory, of rancid sour cream. They haven’t used this color in electronics manufacturing since the late 1970’s, and even then it was an ill-advised choice.
Somebody had to have lost their job for choosing this color. Deservedly.
But tucked away on a dresser, in the back of a bookshelf, under a counter – far, far from prying eyes – it will still do the job it’s intended to do, and do it well.
And no one will be the wiser.
SPECIFICATIONS…
- Skid resistant pads hold devices securely
- Five clips for cable organization
- Expandable device holder
- Foldable for easy portability
- 1080 joule surge protection
- On/off rocker switch
This offer runs from Friday, October 2nd through Thursday, October 8th, 2015, or while supplies last. Sorry, no rainchecks.

Chances are pretty good you have an iPhone. And even if you don’t own one yourself, you almost certainly know someone who does. So what better time to “freshen up” your iPhone than right now, when you can choose from hundreds of different cases…and pay less than a buck for each one. (Is it too early to start thinking about stocking stuffers? We don’t think so.)
These aren’t cheap knockoff cases, either. You’ll find brand names like Incipio, Speck, UAG, and more. Prices normally start at $19.99, with some cases selling for as much as $49.99. No matter which one you choose, all you’ll pay is 99 cents each.
This offer runs from Friday, September 25th through Thursday, October 1st, 2015, or while supplies last. Sorry, no rainchecks.

Next time you’re sitting in your car, take a moment to look around.
Look closely. Very closely.
Chances are things are dirtier than you could have possibly imagined. Especially if you have kids. Or pets. Or play sports. Or, you know, live a life.
Hair, crumbs, makeup, dust, coffee stains – you name it. Most of us use our vehicles every day, so it’s only natural for debris to build up over time.
And that’s where this week’s DOTW comes in. Cyber Clean Pop-Up Cup Automotive Cleaning Compound is going to change everything. This blue glob gets all that grime and grit out of even the tightest spots and narrowest crevices. It smells good, works great, and won’t stain any of your car or boat’s surfaces. Swiss scientists have seen to that.
Best of all, as this week’s Deal, you pay just $1.99 for a cup of Cyber Clean Pop-Up Cup Automotive Cleaning Compound, which normally sells for $7.99. We’re making it easy to afford for every one of your vehicles.
