Chad's Crappy Corner! The second weeks of gadget in Chad’s theme for November: Stocking Stuffers.

Chad has two gadgets this week. He said he’ll be doing a higher priced gadget, and a cheap gadget each week. And here they are:

The cheapie gadget is the Baggler Soft Rubber Grip Handle. There are two in a pack. Each one can carry 3 bags. Here’s a bit of what Amazon says about them: Shopping at the mall is more enjoyable when you don't have to struggle to carry your bags. With all of your bags attached to the handle it is more convenient to set your bags down and pick them up. The BAGGLER carry handle works with all types of bags. The grip is comfortable to hold for long periods of time. It is ideal for those that have to carry bags home, or if you plan on going from one store to another while shopping in the mall. Here’s the website link for the Baggler 2 pack for bonus 7 additional ways to make your grocery shopping easier. Under $10.

And Chad’s take?  Chad liked the Baggler. He showed it was strong by hooking 6 bags of varying weights – three to each Baggler – and carrying them around the studio. Even with all that weight Chad said the handles were soft and the locking clip made sure the bags didn’t slip off. At $9.99 for two, Chad said they’re a buy!  NO LONGER AVAILABLE.

Chad’s more expensive item is the E-THINKER Wireless Bluetooth Beanie Hat. Here’s a little bit about it from Amazon with the English somewhat corrected. The E-THINKER Wireless Bluetooth Beanie Hat with Built-in Wireless Bluetooth Headphones designed for Running and Skiing. The Hi-Tech beanie, lets you enjoy music wirelessly while protecting your head the from cold. Built in microphone, speak with your calling. (I assume that means answer phone calls.) Water resistant hardware and micro USB cable for charging. It offers continuous playback time of 6 hours. Sold by E-thinker, with gift for you. 

NO LONGER AVAILABLE.

And Chad’s take? Chad said the small speakers that fit over each ear sounded pretty good for their size. You can start/stop the music and control the volume. You would control the tracks on the Bluetooth device you pair to the beanie. He thought the quality of the hat wasn’t the best and that the power/charge LED didn’t line up with the hole you’re supposed to view it in. He added that although we couldn’t see it clearly, it did have a felt lining and was warm to wear. The price is/was $39.99, but strangely when we went to check the latest price on Amazon at the link above, it came up “Not Available” as of 11/12/14. It might be back on sale when you check. My feeling was Chad thought it was a so-so buy, a bit on the expensive side.
