Amazon.com - Sale on Anker Products
Amazon is hosting a sale on Anker charging products, including car chargers, portable battery packs, and charging cables. Their products are twice the price of many generic brands, but Anker is known for good quality. They are also one of the few companies giving an 18-month warranty and 30-day money-back guarantee on their products.

The list of deals includes:
- Anker 20,000mAh Portable Battery Charger for $42. Normally over $50. Realistically, this will fully charge an iPhone 7's battery about 7 times, an iPad Mini about 3 times, or an iPad about 2 times. However, this battery pack weighs about 0.8 pounds, which is pretty heavy to carry around in a purse or pocket.
- Anker 5,000mAh Portable Battery Charger for $22.50. Weighs 0.28 pounds.

BestBuy.com - Amazon Fire TV Stick for $20
Best Buy stores and BestBuy.com are selling the Amazon Fire TV Stick with Alexa Voice Remote for $20. Shipping is free, and same-day in-store pickup is available.

Normally sells for $40.

$20 is an amazing value if you are OK with not having YouTube. Since Amazon and Google are competing in the same space, Google's YouTube (and YouTube TV) do not work on a Fire TV Stick. And, Amazon's Prime Video (including Amazon original series) do not play on a Google Chromecast. All do play on a Roku.

Hulu, Netflix, Vudu, and other streaming apps work on the Fire TV, on Chromecast, and on a Roku.

We chose Google Chromecast in our home because we use YouTube TV for live shows (mostly sports and the evening shows). We enjoy unlimited DVR per account, and up to 5 accounts included means everyone in the home can watch anything in their own TV library.

Best Buy is also selling the 4K Amazon Fire TV UltraHD Stick for $35. Normally sells for $70. To stream 4K, a reliable 25 megabits connection is required and may still depend on which state you live in.

3. The discount should appear before placing your order.
This is the cheapest rechargeable fan on Amazon, but is meant for a desk or flat surface only. This is not the best choice for outdoor use, since it has no clip, clamp, or tripod for sitting on an uneven surface. Even still, the price is a great value for a desk fan.

Amazon.com - $50 Fandango Gift Card for $40

Amazon.com - Tool and Smart Parts Organizer for $12
Tool organizer for keeping drill bits, screws, nails, and other tool supplies for $12. Some of the compartments are adjustable, and has a see-through plastic lid. Similar tool-organizers sell for about $20.

Amazon.com - Fire TV Stick for $30
The Amazon Fire TV Stick is on sale for $30. Plugs into a TV's HDMI port, and streams Amazon Instant Video, Amazon Music, Hulu, HBO Now, Sling TV, and others.

Note that Amazon and Google do not play nice with each other. If you want to run streaming video owned by Google, such as YouTube and YouTube TV, consider a $35 Google Chromecast or a $40 Roku. A Chromecast works directly from more apps with a "Cast" button that appears. A Roku has the most flexibility, supporting both Amazon and Google apps.

We chose Chromecast over Amazon and Roku for its performance. Videos load faster than Roku, and quality seems better. It also works great with the YouTube TV app, which we chose over Playstation Vue, DirecTV Now, Hulu TV, and Sling TV.

However the Amazon Fire Stick does have voice-operation built-in, a nice feature. To get voice-control that with a Google Chromecast, we had to buy a Google Home.

One more thing to note, Net Neutrality rules expire today in the US, allowing service providers like AT&T, Verizon, and Comcast to block and slow access to services that compete with their interests, like video streaming services. Changes will be slow for them to implement, but how people access digital content will eventually be determined by contracts with the cable companies, versus the Net Neutrality way of consumers paying for sufficient bandwidth/speed to access the Internet. The new normal means websites and streaming services could be slowed or blocked from homes, explicitly allowing cable monopolies to prioritize content that pays them. This sounds confusing, but think of it like your post office slowing or refusing to deliver mail from certain businesses even though they paid the same postage as another. Unlike FedEx, UPS, or any courier service who can compete with the post office, there is no alternative Internet access for most homes in the US. Since there's no competition for the majority of Americans, people who see their video streaming services degrade will have less freedom of choice. We fear that less competition will lead to higher prices and worse service for consumers accessing video streaming services.

Amazon.com - Instant Pot DUO Plus 8-Quart Pressure Cooker for $100
(expired)

Amazon posted a sale on the latest model 8-quart Instant Pot DUO Pressure Cooker at $100. Normally at least $130.

This is not the cheapest pressure cooker on the market, and other recent deals sold the 3 and 6-quart versions for $60 and $70. At 8-quarts, this is the largest model and designed for cooking large meals.

We purchased an older model Instant Pot on Black Friday in 2015 and it has since transformed our cooking. We make soup, rice, beans, and potatoes in less than half the time it would normally take.

For more information cooking with a pressure cooker, check out this
New York Times article.
