DEALS
Ecolution Popper: 25% Off
Popcorn makers are some of my favorite products to review, and the Ecolution Popcorn Popper was a surprising success. This one showed up in my PO Box unsolicited back in mid-2023, and I’ll admit that it sat around for months before I finally gave it a try. When I did, I was impressed by how simple and effective it was. Now at 25% off, it’s perfectly priced just in time for cozy winter movie nights at home. A fun and practical gift for the holidays!

Sunrise Alarm Clock: 40% Off
While I haven’t reviewed this product myself, I did purchase it as a gift for a family member who struggles with seasonal affective disorder. It’s not a complete solution, but it does provide a much-needed boost of sunlight during these darker months. I paid full price for it, so seeing it now at 40% off is a significant deal! If you’re looking to brighten up your space or gift someone a little extra light this season, this is worth considering.
Mr. Predicto: 36% Off
Looking for a fun and quirky holiday gift idea? Meet Mr. Predicto, a modern twist on the classic Magic 8 Ball. I tested this little gadget a few weeks ago, and it is a fun novelty item! Simply ask a yes-or-no question, wave your hand over it, and watch as it delivers a random answer. Sure, it’s all for fun, but isn’t that what makes it perfect for the holidays? Right now, it’s 36% off on Amazon, a great deal for a novelty gift that’s sure to spark some laughs.

ON THIS DATE
Kitchen Slicer (2021)
This slicer went viral in 2021.
Three years ago today, I reviewed this intriguing kitchen slicer that was making waves at the time, and I still occasionally see videos of it circulating! I’ll admit, I approached it with some skepticism, worried it might just be another gimmick. To my surprise, it actually delivered on its promises. In fact, it’s still my go-to gadget for preparing scalloped potatoes. If you missed it back in the early 2020s, now’s the perfect time to revisit the review and see why this slicer earned a permanent spot in my kitchen.
SMART SHOPPING
Three Tips for Wiser Shopping
Beware of Subscription Traps. Watch for sneaky subscription options during checkout, and always double-check your final order summary. A lot of checkout screens default to subscribing you to their email list.
Check Expiration Dates on Deals. Some promo codes or cashback offers have tight deadlines. Set a reminder to use them before they expire.
Save Product Manuals. Many warranties require you to have the manual for proof of proper usage.
SHORT SPOTLIGHT
Ninja Crispi
After naming the Ninja Crispi my #1 pick for my Best of the Year countdown, the short version of that review has picked up steam on YouTube and other platforms. While it’s hard to condense a full review down to a minute or less, even that truncated review has garnered attention in recent weeks. Check out the 52-second review in my YouTube Short. |
Christmas is just 10 days away! I hope you’re finding time to enjoy the festive season, whether it’s wrapping gifts, catching up with loved ones, or just relaxing with your favorite holiday treats. The countdown is on, so don’t forget to soak in all the little moments that make this time of year so special. Wishing you all the joy and magic of the season!
Until next time,
James
