Why you should join Amazon Prime today


Online shoppers need to be ready on July 10th at 9 PM EST which is when the 3rd annual Prime Day starts. Prime Day is a special day set aside just for Amazon Prime Members that could just as easily be called Christmas in July because of all the Black Friday type deals that will be offered for 30 hours.

If you aren’t already an Amazon Prime member, there’s no better day to join than today. First of all, you can get a 30-day free trial and if you have an Amazon Echo, you can save $20 off of the normal $99 yearly membership fee just by saying “Alexa, sign me up for Prime.”

Another good reason to sign up today is that Amazon is giving Prime members a special deal on Amazon’s Music Unlimited streaming service. This service normally costs $7.99 a month, but now through July 11th, you can get 4 months of service for only .99 cents. I signed up for myself just this morning.

Sign up for a 30-day Free Trial of Prime.

Get 4 months of Amazon Music Unlimited for $0.99.

Saddleback Leather Company just got game


Saddleback Leather Company is very well known for their “they’ll fight over it when you’re dead” leather bags and gear. But you probably would not have guessed that one of their newest products is a set of dominoes. Unexpected? Yes. But not unexpected is that the dominoes are made of leather. 

This full set of 28 dominoes is made from thick vegetable tanned carbon black bull leather that has been cut so the dominoes can stand on end in either orientation.

Pounded into the center of each domino is a metal spinner. I’m not a domino aficionado, so I don’t know if there is a significance to the center spinner, but it sounds cool.

The set of leather dominoes is housed in a box made from one piece of thick leather that is stitched with boot cord.

Like most of Saddleback Leather’s products, the price will make you catch your breath, but also like Saddleback Leather products, you’ll need need to replace this set because it will last longer than you will.

Head over to Saddleback to check out their leather domino set which is priced at $189.

Carry this wireless Apple Watch charger on your keychain


We’ve reviewed quite a few Apple Watch chargers over the years, but the Oittm charger is the smallest charger that I’ve seen. This charger is so small that you can attach it to your keychain or carry it in your pocket.

This keychain-sized power bank is compatible with all versions of the Apple watch and has a built-in Li-ion battery with a capacity of 700mAh. If you’re thinking that 700mAh is not a lot of juice, you would be thinking correctly. The Oittm charger is not going to fully recharge your Apple Watch. But it will top it off and/or add up to 3 hours of extra running time to the watch.

You’re not going to use the Oittm as the primary charger for your Apple Watch, but it could come in handy as an emergency charger if you’re off the grid and need to revive your watch before you can get back to your regular charger.

The Oittm Apple Watch wireless charger is priced at $39.98 and is available from Amazon.

Dress your pet in samurai armor because why not


Many of us who own pets, consider them as our “kids” who just happen to be furry. But if that’s not you and you prefer to think of Spot or Princess as a fierce warrior, then these awesome samurai armor sets for pets is just for you… or actually your pet.

Samurai Age is a Japanese (shock!) company that makes samurai armor, especially for cats and dogs. Each set is made by hand in Japan and has been designed after legendary Japanese samurai soldiers.

The armor sets come in several colors and sizes and are priced starting at ¥ 14,040 which ends up being over $2000 US. Yikes!

You can visit www.samurai-age.jp for more info. And if you decide to order a set of armor for your cat, be sure to order a set of samurai armor for yourself too because you’ll need it!
