1. Click the extra $5 coupon under the $36 price.
2. Add one to the cart, and proceed to checkout.
3. Enter code 6H5OCC4L to get $9 off.
Final price is $22 plus tax. Provides 18W USB-C power delivery, 18W QC3.0 USB, and 12W USB output. So it can charge any phone or tablet. Charges itself through either 18W USB-C or 2.4A USB-Micro.

Includes a 30 month warranty. When the 15,000mAh is fully charged, it can charge a dead iPhone 11 battery about 4 times.

RavPower 20,000mAh USB-C Portable Battery Charger for $34.50
1. Click the extra $5 coupon under the price, and select the Black color model.
2. Add one to the cart, and proceed to checkout.
3. Enter code TG21RPPP to get $6.50 off.
Final price is $34.50 plus tax. A USB-C power adapter (30W or higher) is required to charge this battery. If your laptop has USB-C power, it is likely that adapter will charge this battery pack. The 60W USB-C power delivery means this battery is one of the only sub-$50 battery packs capable of charging laptop computers that use 60W USB-C power.

Includes a 30 month warranty. When the 20,000mAh is fully charged, it can give about a 50% battery boost to a laptop computer that supports USB-C power input, or charge a dead iPhone 11 battery about 6 times.

RavPower 20,100mAh Portable Battery Charger for $40 when clicking the $10 coupon under the $50 price. If you want high power USB-C portable charging from a battery that takes in USB-Micro charging, this one may be a good choice. It provided about 50% battery boost to our laptop, takes about 3 hours to recharge with USB-C or about 20 hours to recharge using the USB-Micro input.

Amazon.com - Wireless Qi Charging Stand for $13
For iPhone, Samsung, and other phones that support wireless Qi charging, this Aukey Wireless Charger is $13 after clicking the $12 coupon under the $25 price. Similar ones sell for about $19.

Does not include a charger. Compatible QC chargers sell for $10.50, $12, and $14, and a 3-pack for $19.

Saturday, May 30, 2020

Amazon.com - 96W USB-C Charger for $27
1. 96W USB-C Power Adapter
2. Click the $3 coupon under the $60 price, then add one to the cart.
3. On the final checkout page, enter code EFTKYOZJ
Final price is $27 plus tax. Includes a 6-foot USB-C cable, and connects to a laptop or battery pack that accepts USB-C power input.

Normally, USB-C chargers capable of up to 96W power would normally sell for $50 to $80.

We are excited about USB-C power cables because many modern laptops and some tablets support a lot of functionality by plugging-in a single USB-C cable. More than just power, adding a USB-C hub like this one can give power to the laptop or tablet, add an external monitor, gigabit ethernet, and USB devices over a single cable. Not every laptop/tablet can do USB-C power input, but if yours does, you can get more than just power input from a single USB-C port.

Amazon.com - 2-Pack of 3oz Banana Boat SPF-30 Sunscreen for $4.20
(expired)

Click the coupon under the $6 price and choose "Subscribe & Save" on the right, to get it for $4.20 with free shipping.

These normally sell for about $4 each.

Wait until your order ships, then you can change or cancel Subscribe & Save subscription. Beware that Amazon will automatically re-order this sunscreen for you at a future date, so knowing where you can manage or cancel your subscription is important.

Friday, May 29, 2020

Amazon.com - 1 Gallon Hand Sanitizer for $45
Not a "deal" because of the price, but a deal because it's in-stock from a US-based company and contains the ingredients that kill Covid-19 (and other viruses).

Contains 70% Ethanol Alcohol and ships from the manufacturer in Pittsburgh, PA.

The price is average during pre-Covid times, and is a hot deal today because of limited supply.

Note that this comes in a giant jug, and is meant to fill empty bottles that you have. If you don't have empty bottles available, consider getting some.

Monday, May 25, 2020

Amazon.com - 2 TP-Link Smart Plugs for $18
Two-pack of TP-Link Kasa Smart Plugs for $18.

Each plug into a single power outlet, and control the on/off function with a smartphone app, or from a smart speaker (Google Home or Amazon Echo), if you have one.

Saturday, May 23, 2020

Amazon.com - TCL 55" 4K TV with HDR and Roku for $268
(expired: sold out)

This TCL 55S425 is the best value in a large-screen 4K TV today. At $268 with free shipping, it supports 1080p and 4K video, HDR10, and has Roku built-in. See the full specifications on TCL's website.

Lots of streaming apps are available with Roku, and the TV can be fully controlled by the included Roku remote and the free Roku app.

This TV normally sells for $300 to $380.

Amazon.com - Whole Foods Deals for Prime Members
For this holiday weekend, Whole Foods Market posted automatic discounts for Amazon Prime members on many products. Lots of deli meats, snacks, and fruit have "prime member deal" discounts posted next to the prices. Some discounts are 15% to 33% off.

There are far more discounted items than those shown on their page. The only way is to search for groceries, and look for the green "prime savings" next to the prices.

Whole Foods, like many grocery stores, offers curbside pickup. Front door delivery is also available at many locations.

Friday, May 22, 2020

Amazon.com - 50-Pack of Face Masks for $29
50-pack of basic surgical-like face masks for $29, in-stock with 2-3 delivery for Prime members. That's 58¢ per mask.

Other deals are available for half this price, with delivery times of 2-10 weeks. This deal delivers within a couple days.

Do not buy this mask expecting you will be protected from getting Covid-19 by wearing it, but rather, are for being a good person by helping others from catching anything you may be carrying.

Masks like these can be effective when everyone in a room wears them and practices social distancing, because the mask redirects germs and viruses downward rather than spreading freely in the air. Studies show most infections of Covid-19 happen from people who are asymptomatic, so in lieu of testing, if everyone in a room wears a mask like this and stays 6+ feet apart, the spread lowers.

Healthcare workers and anyone put in contact with Covid-19 patients use better protection with N95 masks, face shields, and clothes/shoe coverings which are in short supply because they are effective at protecting the wearer from becoming infected.

Staples.com - 18-Pack Quilted Northern Ultra Plush Toilet Paper for $20
In-stock, and Staples orders are usually delivered within 48-hours if you are near to a Staples store.

Toilet paper had been difficult to find in-stock up until recently, not because of a shortage of the material, but because of packaging and distribution. When so many people stayed home, using toilet paper at home rather than the bulk-made kind at offices, schools, sporting events, and restaurants, manufacturers could not quickly switch production to consumer toilet paper. It took weeks for manufacturers to catch up and demand to fall, which appears to be happening now as toilet paper is now a bit easier to find.

Wednesday, May 20, 2020

Microsoft.com - Lenovo 28" 4K Monitor for $250
Lenovo 28-inch (L28u-30) 4K IPS Monitor for $250. Normally $300 to $350.

The specs are very good, with 3840x2160 (4K) resolution, 178 degree viewing angle, 4-6ms response time, 60Hz refresh rate, 1000:1 contrast ratio, one HDMI and one DisplayPort input, and VESA (100x100mm) mount capable. Most other 28" monitors with similar specs sell for over $300.

Amazon.com - 6-Pack Hand Soap for $12
6-pack of Softsoap antibacterial soap in dispenser for $12.

Note that washing hands with soap is one of the most effective ways at preventing spread of Covid-19.

Also, Amazon has a 24-Pack of Quilted Northern Toilet Paper Rolls for $28.

Amazon.com - 2 Ethernet Over Coax Adapters for $155
Not a deal, but a tip for people working from home.

With so many people video calling/conferencing from home, having fast Internet throughout the home is more important than ever.

If your wifi signal is weak because it's too far from the router, ethernet wires are the best way to get reliable Internet.

Some modern homes/apartments have ethernet (Cat-5e and Cat-6) jacks in rooms, but what about older homes with just coax jacks?

If your home has coax cable jacks that are unused, you can get a pair of coax to Ethernet adapters for $155 and follow the steps to get gigabit ethernet via coax.

For example, if the router is in the basement and there is no Ethernet cabling but coax is available and unused by TV signals, using these adapters can send the Internet to another room in the home without worrying about unreliable wireless signal. Plug an Ethernet Switch or a powerful wireless access point like this one near your devices to get strong Internet to your home office, living room, kitchen, or wherever you need it.

Monday, May 18, 2020

Amazon.com - TP-Link Smart Plug for $15
TP-Link Kasa Smart Plug for $15. Normally about $18.

Allows you to control a single power outlet with a smart speaker or their Kasa app. We use a couple of these to control floor lights in the office.

They are also selling a smart light switch for $18, but requires electrician skills to install without being electrocuted.

Sunday, May 17, 2020

Amazon.com - 2oz Hand Sanitizer Spray for $6
Poo-Pourri Antibacterial Hand Sanitizer, 2oz bottle for $6.

Not a good price considering the small size, but is one of the few hand sanitizers available for delivery within 2 weeks.

Friday, May 15, 2020

Amazon.com - 6-Pack of 10oz Hand Sanitizer Spray for $27
6-pack of Suave Hand Sanitizer Spray, 10oz bottles, for $27 ($4.50 per bottle).

According to the label, this contains 65% Ethyl Alcohol which, according to the CDC, is enough to kill Covid-19 and other viruses. Note that "Ethyl Alcohol" is the same thing as "Ethanol Alcohol", and this product's 65% is higher than the CDC's 60% recommendation.

A 10oz (295ml) bottle is pretty large for a sanitizer. We would guess that each bottle could provide at least 70 sprays.

Amazon.com - 60-Pack Individually Wrapped Alcohol Wipes $17.15
60-pack of individually-wrapped 4x3-inch 96% alcohol wipes for $17.15 (29¢ per wipe).

This looks good for:
- Wiping down groceries and containers that come into the home,
- Cleaning door handles after someone touches them, and
- Sanitizing a steering wheel or phone, when someone else uses them.
Its 96% Isopropyl Alcohol content can kill viruses on hands, plastic containers, hard surfaces, and cardboard boxes.

However, as explained in this article, adding a little water to the pads could make them more effective. It seems too much alcohol can be less effective than alcohol mixed with a little water. So these pads CAN work, but may work better if you ADD water.

Otherwise, regular soap can be a good alternative for killing the virus. If you have a sink nearby, soapy paper towels and a little water should be another way to clean surfaces. And, of course, hand washing (with soap) after touching something that someone else has touched, is the best strategy to minimize your risk of catching Covid-19.

Amazon.com - 6 of 32oz Silk Almond Milk for $12, 6 Microwaveable White Rice $8
- Six-pack of 32oz Silk Almond Milk, Unsweetened for $12. This brand is carrageenan-free, a good thing for non-dairy milk. However, Silk brand does have gellan gum and locust bean gum, which according to this blogger, can react negatively to people with sensitive immune systems.
- Six-pack of Annie Chun's Sticky White Rice, Microwave-safe for $8. Heats in 2 minutes, and makes for a cheap ($1.33 each) & hot addition to leftover chicken, vegetables, beans, or anything that goes with rice.
- Six-pack of 6oz Colgate Whitening Toothpaste, Sparkling White for $8. Normally over $10.
- 20-Pack AAA Alkaline Batteries for $4.60 when choosing Subscribe & Save and clicking the 30% coupon under the $6.96 price. After your order ships, be sure to cancel Subscribe & Save if you don't want Amazon to auto-reorder this item for you at a higher price on a future date.
- Grey Poupon Mustard, 8oz for $3. Same price as sold at grocery stores, but ships to your door.
- Single Dumbbell Workout Weight, 15 pound for $21 each, or 20 pound for $25.50 each. Note, each order comes with one (not two). Home workout equipment like this had been in very low stock, since people started staying at home.
Note that Amazon has come under fire for the way it treats its workers. According to employees, it has been very slow at installing protections from Covid-19 and is under investigation for firing employees who complained about safety.

Amazon.com - RavPower 20,000mAh USB-C Portable Battery for $30.10 and $38
RavPower is our favorite brand of portable battery chargers. Here are some deals.

RavPower 20,000mAh Portable Battery Charger for $30.10
1. Click the 10% coupon under the $43 price.
2. During checkout, apply promo code W3MOT2NF to get $8.60 off.
Final price is $30.10 plus tax. This is quite versatile as it provides 3 charging ports: 18W USB-C power delivery, 18W QC 3.0 USB, and regular 2.4A USB.

Can be charged by either USB-C or regular USB. Note that an AC adapter is not included, so pair with your own USB or USB-C wall adapter to charge this.

Weighs 1 pound and is 6.2x2.9x0.6 inches in size.

RavPower 15,000mAh Portable Battery Charger for $23.80.
1. Click the $5 coupon under the $36 price.
2. During checkout, apply promo code UBS27YUL to get $7.20 off.
Final price is $18.80 plus tax.

Same features as the above 20,000 with a smaller battery, slightly smaller, and is one-third lighter at 0.66 pounds.

RavPower 20,000mAh USB-C Portable Battery Charger for $38
1. Select the black color (this deal is not available on the white)
2. Click the $7 coupon under the $50 price.
3. During checkout, apply coupon code D3TWUNJH to get another $7 off.
Final price is $38 plus tax. Includes a USB-C cable.

This is only for someone with USB-C devices, as it must be charged from a USB-C AC adapter with 45W or higher (not included) and will work with any USB-C charger that came with a laptop or iPad Pro as long as it is rated 45W or higher.

Provides 60W portable power for a laptop or iPad Pro, for charging away from a power outlet, like outside on a patio, at a pool, or when you can travel away from home again. Ours charges a Lenovo Thinkpad battery from 10% to 70%.

Note that some power hungry MacBook models will not take power from this RavPower, because some need more than the 60W provided. Check your MacBook model or laptop specs, to see if it can take 60W (or less) power through USB-C.

This RavPower also has one QC 3.0 18W USB charging port for charging a phone or tablet, but this RavPower really designed to be a USB-C charger with its high 60W power delivery capability.

Amazon.com - 30-Pack Toilet Paper for $20
(expired)

Amazon brand toilet paper, 30-pack for $20.

Friday, May 8, 2020

Amazon.com - Voltage Tester for $7
(expired)

Non-contact voltage tester for $11, and click the $3 coupon under the price.

If you feel like attempting electrical work yourself, this tool can be very helpful. For example, if you bought "smart" light switches, replacing existing switches will involve handling electrical wires. Figuring out which wire is "hot" is important, because touching a "hot" wire will result in electrocution. Even with the power shut-off, it's best to be very sure by getting a second opinion with a tester like this.

Wednesday, May 6, 2020

Amazon.com - 3-Pack Nail Clippers $5.50
(expired)

Monday, May 4, 2020

Amazon.com - RavPower 6-Port USB Charger $20
The RavPower 6-Port Desktop USB Charger dropped in price by $4, down to $20. Available in Black, in White, or in Blue/Black.

Its 12A (12 amps) power capacity means 5 phones/tablets/batteries can be charged simultaneously at their maximum 2.4A (2.4 amps) rate, or 6 devices at a reduced rate. Its 5-foot power cord brings the charging ports closer, so you can use shorter charging cables.

USB chargers are considered "essential" items because they charge phones which keep family members in-touch, so Amazon ships this product with the highest priority. Prime members get this item within 2 days.

When it arrives, register the product with RavPower to get a 30-month warranty (18 months will be added to the included 12-month warranty).

For a similar deal, a nearly identical Anker 6-Port USB Desktop Charger is $22 today. Includes an 18-month warranty. And, a lesser-known brand USB-C Desktop Charger with 3 QC3.0 Ports is on sale for $28.

Amazon.com - 4-Pack Tennis Balls $3.20
Obviously for playing tennis, but can also be used to for trigger point therapy. With guidance by a fitness instructor or physical therapist (as these videos demonstrate), a tennis ball (or a lacrosse ball) can help loosen tight muscles without spending more on a myofascial ball.

Friday, May 1, 2020

Amazon.com - Glass Electric Kettle for $22
Heats water faster than an electric stove can. Normally about $26.

Amazon.com - 560-Pack Huggies Baby Wipes for $14
Meant for cleaning babies. Can also be used to clean hard surfaces that have collected dirt, such as car steering wheels & dash boards.

Things to note:
- They are alcohol-free, so they will probably not kill a coronavirus.
- They are not toilet-flushable, and meant to be thrown in the trash after use.

Amazon.com - 6-Pack Lavender Liquid Hand Soap for $13.13
Ships when back in stock.

Washing hands with soap for 20 seconds kills viruses collected by touching infected people and objects. Be sure to wash in between fingers and clean around the thumbs, as this video demonstrates.

Amazon is also selling a 56oz Hand Soap Refill for $6. Fills empty soap bottles.

Thursday, April 30, 2020

Amazon.com - McAfee Total Protection for $30
McAfee Total Protection is antivirus software for PCs, Macs, smartphones, and tablets, and includes a password manager.

This one-year subscription auto-renews at a higher price, so be sure to check the renewal information and auto-billing terms during signup.

Amazon.com - BitDefender Antivirus Plus for Windows or Mac $11
BitDefender is one of our favorite antivirus software for Windows. They normally sell it for $20, and Amazon is selling it:
- For Windows for $11 after clicking the $5 coupon under the $16 price.
- For Mac for $11 after clicking the $5 coupon under the $16 price.
Or, a 3-device version is $15 after coupon.

Includes 1 year of antivirus protection, network threat prevention, ransomware protection, anti-phishing, rescue mode, VPN (200MB/day), password manager, and file shredder.

BitDefender has worked well for us for 6 months, without some of the issues we found with other antivirus software. And, BitDefender is often on other people's lists of their favorite antivirus software, such as TechRadar.

Antivirus software often have high renewal prices, but BitDefender's prices are quite low. At this time, their posted renewal price is $20 for 1 year and $63 for 3 years (for Antivirus Plus, 1 device). For comparison, Norton and McAfee charge anywhere from $30/yr to $70/yr.

Amazon.com - Deals on RavPower Products, or Donate
One of our friends nearly lost his life to Covid-19, with no way to say goodbye to family because his phone ran out of battery and family was not allowed to visit the ICU because of Covid-19.

If you would like to help others, check our their GoFunMe page, money goes to buying chargers for Covid-19 patients.

We recommend putting phone chargers, portable USB battery chargers, and cables in a "go bag" near the front door, a quick grab when en route to the hospital.

Our brand of choice for phone chargers and battery packs is, RavPower.

Here are some RavPower deals.

Chargers:
- RavPower 4-Port USB 8A Wall Charger for $17.
  - Plugs directly into an outlet, so you may need long USB cables to reach the USB ports.
  - Its 8W capacity means 3 phones/tablets/batteries can be charged simultaneously at their maximum 2.4A rate.
- RavPower 6-Port USB 12A Wall Charger for $24
  - 5-foot cable from the outlet to the USB ports.
  - Its 12W capacity means 5 phones/tablets/batteries can be charged simultaneously at their maximum 2.4A rate, and 6 at a reduced rate.

- RavPower 61W USB-C Wall Charger for $23.
  - For devices that need USB-C power, like some phones and laptops.
  - Normally about $36. Other similar 61W USB-C power adapters sell for much more.
  - Small and portable, but the entire device sticks out of a wall outlet. You may need a long USB-C cable to connect the phone to the port.
Portable Battery Chargers:
- RavPower 10,000mAh Portable Battery Charger for $17 (press the $1 coupon under the price).
  - 2 USB ports. Can charge one device at 2.4A (phone or tablet) and a second device at 1A (phone).

Portable Battery Chargers with USB-C PD Output:
- RavPower 20,100mAh Portable Battery Charger, 45W USB-C PD Output and a 2.4A USB Output for $40 (press the $5 off coupon). Normally about $60.
  - Its 45W USB-C PD output is capable of charging a USB-C laptop from 0% to 60%, if the laptop can accept 45W USB-C power input. Check the specs of your laptop, keeping in mind that some power-hungry laptops need at least 60W input to charge their battery, and won't be compatible. This is one of the least expensive portable battery chargers capable of charging a laptop (if supported).
  - Just one regular USB port capable of charging a phone or laptop at its maximum 2.4A rate.
  - Can charge with either a USB-micro cable or a USB-C cable.
- RavPower 20,000mAh Portable Battery Charger, 60W USB-C PD Output and a 2.4A USB Output for $46 (click the $5 coupon under the $51 price).

  - 3 USB output ports, 2.4A per port. Maximum 5.6A overall charging capacity when used under direct sunlight.
Other brands worth considering are Anker and AmazonBasics. Their prices are usually higher than RavPower, but they also make excellent quality power products, including:
- AmazonBasics 5-Port Wall Charger, One 30W USB-C and 4 USB for $30.

- Anker PowerCore 13,000mAh Portable Battery Charger, 2 USB Ports for $25.50.
  - Weighs 0.5 pounds, making it one of the lightest battery packs with 13,000mAh capacity.

- Anker PowerCore+ 10,000mAh Portable Battery Charger with Built-In Apple Lightning Connector for $60 (activate the $20 coupon under the $80 price).
  - Weighs 0.5 pounds and has a cloth-like texture.
After buying a RavPower power product product on Amazon, you can get an extra 1 year free warranty extension in addition to their regular 18 month warranty. Register your product after buying, to get a total of 30-month warranty.

For cables, lots of Amazon sellers have plenty in-stock and ship within a week. If you need cables sooner, check Staples.com and OfficeDepot.com.

Amazon.com - Grocery Deals For Prime Members
Amazon prioritized and expanded their non-perishable groceries and household goods with Prime delivery. Many items are available for delivery with Prime, any order size without filling a cart with Pantry, Fresh, or Whole Foods items which require minimum purchases and an available delivery time.

Their prices are close to grocery store prices, maybe a little more, but good if you:
- Need a few small items, or
- Want an alternative to unavailable delivery times from Instacart, Shipt, and FreshDirect.
Items on the list include non-perishable items like breakfast foods/snacks/protein, snacks, breads/cookies, nuts, pantry staples, and household supplies.

Many grocery stores will sell items for less, but this is a good alternative to waiting in lines and risking catching the virus in crowds.

Also, shop household supplies from Staples.com and OfficeDepot.com when grocery stores and Amazon are sold out of what you need. For example, WD-40, Tylenol, and paper towels may be in-stock with 2-day delivery.

Amazon.com - Dual-Monitor Desk Arm $22.10
(expired)

Mount It Dual-Monitor Desk Arm for $22.10. Clamps to a desk, and fits monitors up to 27". Normally about $35.

Amazon.com - Portable 10,000mAh Portable Battery Charger $20
(expired)

This cute & tiny portable battery charger is smaller than most other 10,000mAh batteries at 2.6 x 2.6 x 0.9 inches. It weighs about 0.39 pounds (6.2 oz), so it has some weight to it, but should be easier to carry than other portable battery chargers.

When fully charged, the 10,000mAh capacity can fully charge most modern phones at least 3 times, which is a lot of capacity for such a small charger.

$20 is a nice price if you are looking for something portable and cute, but if reliability is more important, consider a more robust charger from RavPower or Anker. Our 4-year old RavPower 10,400mAh charger had been recharged about 500 times, and is still providing about 70-80% of its battery capacity.

These days, portable batteries can be useful for medical and critical infrastructure workers who need quick access to chargers without being tethered to a power outlet. Also hospital patients, who likely are not allowed visitors, probably also need easy access to phone charging to stay in contact with loved ones.

With most people working from home, home-office equipment is in high demand. Deals on professionally-sounding microphones are rare, but Amazon does have this Blue Yeti in Black for $100. Most stores sell this mic for about $130.

It connects to a USB port on a PC or Mac, and provides better audio quality that on-laptop microphones, earpods, and headsets.

This version is bundled with Ghost Recon Breakpoint for PC, a nice free bonus.

It's a popular microphone for home offices and postcasters. Some people sell their used Blue Yeti microphones (not the Nano) for about $80 on Ebay, so $100 new with 2-year warranty is a great deal.
