Geeks Love President’s Day

February 16, 2009 By


Be Cool - Shop @ Geeks.com You have to get thyself to Geeks.com and take a look at their savings for Presidents Day. I honestly didn’t know anyone (except the post office, of course) even acknowledged this holiday.

But apparently geeks think it’s a biggie.  Of course they do, right?

Anyway, Geeks.com is having quite a few sales in honor of their beloved holiday.   One is an event they call “An Extreme Computer Makeover.”   They have a 17 inch LCD monitor with speakers, a killer mouse (Emprex 4-way M977U 8 Button Wireless Laser Scroll Mouse With Tilt Wheel), Pixo Multimedia Keyboard, a 25 piece tool kit and a lot more all on sale – and the savings are sweet.

They also have cameras, hard drives, mp3 players, etc. on sale. I’m telling you, these guys think it’s Christmas or something. Click the banner above and seek out the deals. They’re extending their President’s Sale through February 28th.

Bless their hearts. Bless their little geek hearts.

A Few Sticky Solutions

Automotive iPod Holder - Jelly Sticky Pad

If you’ve about had it with cellphones and ipods sliding across your dashboard or, worse, under your feet, this is a pretty cool little solution.

No doubt many wrecks are caused by people looking around for the cellphone or ipod.  This little guy keeps it STUCK right where you can reach it at all times. It’s even washable and reusable. There’s never any question of, “Is it in the console, on the dashboard, or between the seats???“  Click through the link or image to see the other cool solutions they have.

At this great price, I’m sure you’ll want to get one for each of the drivers in your life.  Well, the ones you like, anyway.
