Tired of hunching over your laptop’s relatively small screen? Plug in an external monitor for a proper desktop setup. And, hey, if you’re going to do that, you might as well go big — especially when there’s a deal like this. For a limited time, and while supplies last, Staples has the AOC 27E1H 27-inch …

I’m a fan of Totallee’s thin and slim phone cases. I like the “barely there” approach that gives you grippability (modern phones are engineered from the ground up to slip out of your hands) and a small amount of protection from falls, but still feels like your phone is almost naked. Now you can try a Totallee case — for …

It doesn’t matter what kind of TV you have: If you’re relying on the integrated speakers, your sound system is terrible. That’s why you can’t understand dialogue and all the music and sound effects sound like they’re played through a transistor radio. The best thing you can do to upgrade your home theater audio is to add a soundbar — …

Cheeps! Have you listened to the latest episode of the Cheapskate Show podcast? You should, especially if you’re in a back-to-school mindset.

The average Bluetooth speaker has nowhere near enough power for parks, pool parties, the beach and other wide-open spaces. If you really want to crank up your tunes, you need something big. Like this: Today only, and while supplies last, Meh has the Braven BRV-XXL/2 Portable Bluetooth Speaker for $149, plus $5 for shipping. This second-gen version of the BRV-XXL, …

Dell’s top-end Inspiron 7000 series boasts an all-aluminum chassis that’s thinner, lighter and sturdier than its midrange Inspiron 5000 models, which feature metal lids and keyboard decks but flimsy plastic bottom panels. Best Buy today has an Inspiron 7000 marked down to $600, which places it firmly in the price range of the Inspiron 5000 series. And this isn’t some …

Good headphones have a reputation for being expensive. Good wireless headphones? Doubly so. Noise-canceling headphones? Triply so (that’s an actual word, I checked). But before you plunk down $200 or more on a back-to-school or back-to-quarantine set of wireless ANC headphones, consider this: Amazon seller SoundElec has the Mpow H19 IPO Active Noise Cancelling Headphones for $25 when you apply …

You’re likely not spending as much time outside these days — at least not without a face mask — but your dog certainly still needs to take care of their business outdoors. And if your dog happens to be a professional backyard escape artist (Trance, I’m looking at you), then you might want to get a tracking collar to prevent …
