I bought that 5-pack of USB cables for $7 during Amazon’s “huge” Prime Day sale. Now a week later they’re $2 cheaper and I don’t have to chase down Lightning Deals all day?

I get up easily an hour to 90 minutes before everyone else in the house in order to do my routine that I like. On the weekdays it’s justified because I also leave for work before the kids are awake. On the weekends it feels kind of silly, but I like being able to shower / get ready in the bathroom in peace (and take

Possibly since engines were disabled, it was sucked in by the gravity of the Death Star?

Yeah, this calculator does seem to assume you’re living within an hour (or closer) of a major urban center. If you’re like me, and living in a city of about 100,000 (by no means tiny), these numbers are really inflated.

Seeing their price estimates on things like a small single-family home in the suburbs ($250,000) and living a simple life in retirement ($200,000 / year) is double what I would be paying in my current city.

I've been thinking about getting a new Digital Instant-Read thermometer, to replace my super slow analog meat thermometer. $80 still seems kind of crazy though, when there's a wide range of other options everywhere from $10-$30. What makes Thermapen three times better?

A bachelor apartment costs $600,000?! That's insane. This rule fit my house purchase pretty well, though I agree there are better metrics. What ever happened to the 28% rule, where your mortgage (or in some cases, all loans) shouldn't be more than 28% of your income?

When It Doesn't: While this is pretty traditional advice that's a safe bet, opinions vary. Some consider it an overwhelming amount to save. Some argue that, while a home is an asset, you shouldn't give up your liquidity, or savings. Of course, there are counterarguments to be made, but the point is: some consider the

I've worn watches almost my whole life. Basically if I owned a functional watch, I was wearing it. Not wearing one, I feel more naked than if I forgot my phone somewhere.

Yeah your use cases and mine line up pretty closely. Basically the watch is great when you're on the go. When you're sitting at a desk or on the couch and you have your phone within easy reach, a watch feels almost comically redundant.

My LG G Watch shines when I get no notifications that require interaction aside from Archiving or Dismissing. Calendar Appointments, Reminders, Sports Scores, Weather Alerts. These are all perfect on the watch.

There's no telling how long this will last, but for right now, if you click through a very brief slideshow extolling the virtues of PayPal Checkout, you'll get a choice of rewards at the end, including a $5 PayPal credit. That's free money! [ $5 PayPal Credit]

There are a ton of options for this kind of thing for MicroUSB. Here are two really cheap ones I've been thinking about snapping up:

Wait wait wait. This online car dealer says the best time of the year to buy a car is the early part of August? Holy crap! It's early August right now! What a shocking coincidence!

The infographic says something pretty vague about the fact that it's "better for an engine to be turned off than turned on", which makes perfect sense. A non-moving machine will have less wear than a moving machine.

All the battery suckers, aside from the 3 games at the bottom, sound like some slap-dash garbage apps. So no surprise that they're not optimized for good battery use.

That's the question - is this across the country, or only in the southwest (hinted at by In-N-Out), where cost of living is higher than say, the upper midwest?

I heard that if you popped a slice of bread in the bag with your...
