I’m not dead! Life has proven to be busy. I’ve been working on my hosting domain.

Really sorry to my affiliates. ): I’ll get my act together very soon! I miss blogging, and I miss the hard work. I especially miss the communication!

Online shopping is absolutely dangerous when you have no money to blow. Not a penny. I’ve been looking at the craziest places, just trying to get a good deal on something. But at the end, I figure the best option would be to not spend the money at all. Let’s take a look at a few places for starters.

There’s ThinkGeek. I just bought my boyfriend a few little birthday gift trinkets from there. I bought him an all in one screwdriver keychain that he practically had an orgasm over (I love my nerdy boyfriend!), and a LOLcat book. With one day shipping, it all cost about thirty three bucks. Not bad at all, honestly. So if you have a geeky person you need to buy stuff for (or you want to spend some of your money to treat yourself to something geeky and nerdy!), definitely go to ThinkGeek.

As far as clothes go? I usually go to shirt sites like Threadless and Woot Shirts. Recently, I had Panda Pad and hip hop clothing brought to my attention. I prefer Panda Pad, but those of you with a more distinct urban taste can shop at Jimmy Jazz instead.

Not all of the stuff on these websites are cheap. There are much fancier stuff, that do more things or generally cost more because it’s harder to make. When in doubt? Shop at Etsy. I’d blow so much money there if I’d let myself.

I try not to browse gadgets and doo-dads online because- Let’s face it -I have no real money to be spending right now. Every penny needs to be pinched in order to buy food, text books and pay rent (not that I’m complaining. I love this new life of mine!).

Just jumping through links and Stumble Upon, I saw this awesome thing! I introduce to you, the ls2208. What is it? It’s a freakin’ barcode scanner! I had no idea you could actually buy those. By We, I mean the general public. I thought only like store employees could get them because the company owns them.

That’s pretty freakin’ bad ass, if I do say so myself. And it’s around $160 USD, too. Honestly not too bad. With a five year warranty, to boot. Right from the company. I’d say that’s pretty awesome.

What gadgets or random tech stuff have you found either online or at a store, that you thought was amazing? Something you thought wasn’t for the general public and apparently was? Lemme know!
