This price isn't going to last so if anyone wants to join me in 34" curved goodness, now's the time.

EDIT: less than 10 minutes later, deal is dead
This monitor is awesome

On the complete opposite end of the spectrum, been super happy with the 24oz Tervis tumbler I picked up recently. Double wall design means ice lasts a long time, it holds a decent amount of liquid, fits in cup holders, no leaks. ~ $20 well spent.

I bought an e-bike a couple months ago. The best thing I've bought here. Super convenient to use in the city. The best part is when the light is counting down to green and I'm splitting lanes to get ahead of all the cars waiting.

This pool robot, I cannot believe I vacuumed my pool for 5 years prior to this. It saves me hours a week and the pool is clean all of the time.

I got a bunch of Pass & Seymour 1595NTLTRWCC4 Gfci Receptacle/Nightlight for a few rooms and hallways around the house. Everyone seem to be a big fan of them.



Bought two squeeze water bottles for my hydration belt to use while running. Been very happy with both of them.

Camelbak Podium Water Bottle

Relaj Shape Water Bottle

The Camelbak one is a little wider, so it's slightly better for my hydration belt (fits more snugly), but both work really well.

What was on your "hydration belt" before water bottles?

On a similar note, I got a couple of these Stanley coffee mugs:



They do a great job of keeping liquids hot. They're spill proof. And also very easy to clean. However, they aren't cheap.

The Nathan non-squeeze water bottle (that came with the belt) which often leaked. Not sure if you're being sarcastic or not, but not all hydration belts come with water bottles, so it theoretically nothing could have been on the belt.

And these squeeze water bottles are also pretty good for the treadmill or keeping on the sideline for any kind of sports, but I suppose the standard Gatorade squeeze water bottles would be most used in those instances. Those bottles just aren't wide enough to fit in my hydration belt, unfortunately.

I got this speaker recently because my old shower speaker stopped working:




Insane how loud it can get for such a small speaker. I almost considered selling my jam box. Pretty great product.

These golf clubs are perfect for a beginner and definitely recommend them:

I love those cars. I have a 335 myself. I saw my first M4 in person a couple weeks ago, so sweet.

Two big thumbs up for the miata - had one since 1990. Great to drive, super reliable. Gonna run up to Tahoe this weekend with the top down.....

Incredibly convenient and reasonably priced. I hate sucking on straw type bottles or getting a dribbling effect from others. This thing has a little bit of a shotgun effect to flow well plus it seals perfectly.

Super handy. Was a little worried about the magnet but it has had zero effect on Galaxy Note.

Not a huge board game player but I really liked The Resistance. Has kind of a bluffing aspect to it that makes it interesting. Video of gameplay -

I'm a big fan of the tempurpedic sleep mask. I love how it's a little puffy at the bottom of my eyes. Well worth the 35$ I spent on it

I got some real nice american made belts from armourbelts. They make gunbelts but they work better than the flimsy ones at the department stores.

These are now my favourite headphones, Sennheiser MM 550-X BLUETOOTH HEADPHONES. Don't sound as good as my Grado's, and the noise cancelling isn't meant to be as good as CQ3 but I use them for walking to work and for comfort and ease of use they're really stellar and the rechargeable battery lasts forver.
