I’ll tumble for you

šŸ’¦ Iā€™ll tumble for you: Forgetting about clothes in the washer is the worst. GEā€™s new Profile Ultrafast washes and dries. Itā€™s super energy-efficient, saves space and can finish a load in two hours. Hey, look! Itā€™s on sale on Amazon. I have a similar machine on my boat, and Iā€™m lucky if I can get three towels in it.

Tech gets nasty

I donā€™t want to alarm you, but look down at your keyboard or take off your phone case. Oh, the filth! Letā€™s fix it.

  • You can make a cleaning solution with vinegar or alcohol, but why? I use premoistened electronic wipes ā€” specifically, this big pack from Care Touch. Theyā€™re cheaper that way and last a long time.
  • For TVs and bigger monitors, these wipes from Weiman work like a charm.
  • This gel dust cleaner is a simple, easy way to get the junk out of your keyboard, printer, camera or anything else with small openings.
  • Your computer, TV and other gear have small ports that collect dust and dirt. Cotton swabs leave fuzz and lint, so try a phone-cleaning kit.
  • Grab a ball of Blu-Tack and press it into your earbud speakers. Pull it away, and all the junk inside comes out with it.

Upgrade your car on the cheap

So sweet: A nifty shopping tool that recommends parts and accessories that will truly fit your car. They ask for your license plate number, but pick your carā€™s make and model instead.

Tech upgrades under $10

Little things can make a huge difference.

  • A criminal with the right gear can copy the signal from your key fob. Toss it in a Faraday bag (two for $8) to block them out.
  • Earbuds get crusty. Use an $8 kit to keep yours gunk-free without damaging the speakers.
  • Canā€™t remember keyboard shortcuts you want to try? Slap a cheat-sheet sticker on your computer. Hereā€™s one for Mac; this one’s for Windows.
  • Are they watching? Know for sure with a $7 cam cover you can use on a phone, tablet or computer.
  • I keep my phone on a stand (46% off!) when Iā€™m working at my desk. Nice in the kitchen, too.
