Money Saving Tips
If you're anything like me, you like free shipping the way you like
ice cream and shoulder rubs. Nothing wrecks an online shopping
experience more than getting to the checkout page and discovering
you're on the hook for $10, $20, or even more for shipping.
That's why I'm partial to ShopRunner, a nifty service that,
among other things, assures you free shipping at more than 70
stores. Even better than that, free two-day
shipping.
Alas, the service costs $79 annually, making it something of
an impulse buy even for hardcore shoppers.

Stuff We Like
That alone makes it an interesting buy, if only because most
tablets of this size tend to sell for a lot more. The Nexus 10, for
example: $399. The iPad: $499 and up. Even the new Asus MeMo Pad
Smart 10 runs $299.
Of course, the ChefPad doesn't have quite the same level of
hardware.

Money Saving Tips
Summertime is nearly upon us, and for most folks that means travel. Whether you're packing up the minivan for a cross-country road trip or hopping a flight to visit far-flung family, you'll want to throw a few key tech tools into your bag.
MyCharge Peak 6000
The last thing you need during a trip is for your phone or tablet to run out of juice. The MyCharge Peak 6000 is a portable power supply with built-in connectors for the most common gear—and a USB port for the less-common stuff.
The half-pound Peak packs enough mobile power to charge not only small devices like phones and Bluetooth headsets, but also larger tablets like the iPad. I've been using one for months, and it has quickly become my most indispensable travel accessory. Read
my original review if you want to learn more.
The Peak 6000 lists for $99.99, but
AT&T currently has it on sale for $69 shipped.
