Chad's Crappy Corner and a brand new theme for July, Travel Gadgets.

Chad's traveling to London – actually he's already in London – so he shared two of his favorite travel gadgets. One is a sleep-mask and the other are earplugs. Here's some of what Amazon says about them.

First, the sleep mask: You've found the BEST sleep mask on the market. A good night's sleep is finally GUARANTEED! Hundreds of thousands sold with a more than 99.99% customer approval rating! After extensive research, the inventor of SLEEP MASTER (an insomnia sufferer) couldn't find a sleep mask that combined the conditions necessary for deep sleep: light elimination and sound reduction. Traditional sleep masks didn't fit or last. They all had thin elastic straps that shift uncomfortably during sleep, fray apart quickly or simply snap off after only a few uses. Thus was born SLEEP MASTER utilizing a soft, cool satin fabric, that is comfortable, LIGHT WEIGHT AND BREATHABLE, FLEXIBLE, DURABLE, wide and easily connected in the back by Velcro. The ear area is padded for sound muffling. It stretches or constricts for the fit you desire. SLEEP MASTER is a simple, all-in-one, one-size-fits-all product, which ELIMINATES LIGHT and REDUCES SOUND, giving you a deep, refreshing sleep by shutting out the world in an immediate, intimate way.

And the earplugs:

 

With a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 33, Hearos Xtreme Protection ear plugs are perfect for blocking out unwanted or damaging noise. Hearos Xtreme Protection ear plugs are perfect for sleeping, studying, attending concerts, traveling and participating and enjoying motor sports like Nascar. 3 packs of 14 pairs of ear plugs (If I'm reading Amazon correctly.) A bit over $12 with free shipping if you're an Amazon Prime member.

And Chad's take? Wow, Chad loves both these products. He said the sleep mask really blocks out light and is super comfortable. He's been using his for a long time and it wears very well. He likes the fabric and the way it feels, especially since it's nicely padded. Chad also likes the ear plugs. Instead of paying about $5 a pair at the airport, buy them in bulk at Amazon and pay less than a buck a pair. He said you can be a hero when you offer others nearby you on your flight their own pair of ear buds for the trip.
