These are the Bluetooth finders you’re looking for

Bluetooth trackers have evolved from the boring plastic one color plastic tiles from a few years ago, to superhero inspired Bluetooth finders and now we have these cool Star Wars inspired finders from ThinkGeek.

These officially licensed Star Wars Bluetooth trackers are designed to attach to a keychain or object so you can keep track of it. They pair with your phone and if you go out of range (> 100ft), you’ll receive an alert on your phone.

They can work the other way around too. If you lose your phone, you can use the tracker to make your phone ring so you can find it.

Available in 5 styles that include: BB-8, R2-D2, Chewbacca, Stormtrooper, and Darth Vader, the Star Wars finders are $26 each from ThinkGeek.com

You can catch a fish and start a fire to cook it with this wallet

If you’re looking for a unique wallet, the ParaWallet easily fits that category. It’s a wallet made with over 50 feet of paracord. Chances are if you read this site, you already know what paracord is, but just in case you don’t, it’s a very strong multi-stranded cord that is very popular with survivalists because it can be used in so many different ways.

The ParaWallet holds your cash and credit cards just like a traditional wallet. But if an emergency situation happens, the wallet can be unraveled to use the 50 feet of 550 lb 7 strand paracord. There’s even a ferrocerium fire starter rod, a stainless steel emblem, and tinder (hidden inside tag) so you will be able to start a fire anywhere.

The company even offers to reassemble the wallet if you ever need to use it. All they ask is that you send in the remaining cord and your story.

You can buy a ParaWallet in a wide variety of colors for $65. You can read more about them on Amazon.

The Right Cup will help you kick your soda habit and drink more water

I used to be addicted to Diet Coke and would drink a 12 oz bottle (or more) every day for years. I had a hard time kicking the habit and wish I would have had The Right Cup to help me. The Right Cup is a BPA free plastic cup that tricks your brain into thinking that you are drinking something sweet when all you’re really drinking is plain zero calorie, caffeine-free water.

When you drink from the 11-ounce cup, you breathe in the fruity aroma and even taste a slight flavor on the rim of the cup. How does it work?

use proprietary technology that enables FDA approved aromatic food grade flavors and ingredients to be added directly to the cup’s components at the time of manufacturing. During the process, the aroma and flavor become integral parts of the cup itself without having to change the plastic characteristics in any way. The Right Cup™ is made of BPA free plastic and is 100% safe!

The Right Cup is available in orange, berry, apple, grape, peach, and cola. The flavor is supposed to last for several months as long as you don’t use a dishwasher and only hand wash the cups.

You can read more about The Right Cup at www.therightcup.com and you can buy one cup for $29.95 from Amazon.

Turn your smartphone into a lantern with Travelamp

Set the mood anytime, anyplace with the Travelamp lantern style light diffuser by Fred and Friends.  When you just need a little light, or maybe you don’t want to wake your partner while you get ready for bed at night, this little silicone lantern may do the trick. Besides being adorable, it’s functional and unbreakable design lets you take it anywhere so you can harness the light from your phone to either read or just relax the night away…or until your phone battery runs out. It slides over most small to medium sized smart phones and is quite reasonably priced at just $8.00.  I’m thinking stocking stuffers already (it’s never too soon!) and this one could be a winner for any age!  Check out fredandfriends.com to order or get more information.
