Most Versatile Charge Cable I’ve Seen So Far!

The inCharge 6 – or as Amazon calls it: The Six-in-One Swiss Army Knife of Cables, Portable Keyring Compatible with Apple iPhone/USB/USB-C/Micro USB Cable for All of Your Devices. This cable is short, about 2”. The whole device ready to charge is about 5”. But it’s versatile. You get USB to USB-C, USB to combo Lightning/Micro USB, USB-C to USB-C & USB-C to dual Lightning/Micro USB. The device is very lightweight and easy to use once you master the ‘hidden’ connectors. With built-in magnets the heads snap together to hang on your keyring, backpack, etc. The company says you can sync and charge simultaneously. And this I haven’t seen before. This cable supports power transfer from one USB-C smartphone to another which doesn’t have to be USB-C, as you’ll see in my video. It can also charge from one USB-C smartphone to another type of portable device. So you can give a charge to a phone running out of juice, or charge earbuds, etc. It was under $20 on Amazon on 12/27/21, but that price can change at any time.

Here Are The Holiday Gift Ideas Will Ganns And I Shared On World News Now.

Forget the Santa hat!

The Tinsel Tree Hat will outrank that any day in December.

It’s 18” high and comes with its own decorations.

One size pretty much fits anybody. It was a big hit in the studio when we recorded our Holiday Gift Guide.

I paid $10 for mine on Amazon. There are other choices there too.

Right now, the single hat for $10 is no longer listed. BUT 3, yes 3 of them for $19.99 is here on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3DlSmXu

Before you decorate your holiday tree, why not have the whole family make their own ornaments!

It’s the TreeMendous Christmas Tree Ornament Decorating Kit. The company says it’s designed for kids Ages 3 and up. I certainly enjoyed using it and designed a couple of ornaments to give away. It’s a fun way for the family to join in and design their own ornaments. The kit comes with three ornaments and a set of 8 nontoxic colorful markers, allowing for many options to create colorful unique creations! I’ve used the kit and it is fun, but there isn’t a wide opportunity to personal the ornaments since you’re decorating an ornament that spins in one plane. So you can’t make pictures, write your name, or personalize it with things like that. But it’s still a lot of fun. You can buy the kit by itself, or with a box of 6 additional ornaments. More different shaped ornament are also available and sold separately. 3 AA batteries are required and are not included. The kit with 3 design-your-own ornaments is under $30. Many options are available on Amazon at the link below.

InstaCoffee Max+ New, For The Coffee Lover On Your Holiday List

This is new from Chefman, The InstaCoffee Max+. I bought their original Insta Coffee, but just bought this one too to see the difference. A small difference is that this single serve Kcup maker brewed a cup of coffee in 96 seconds, just a tad faster than my original model. It started brewing in under 30 seconds. But, a big difference is the size of the basket included to make coffee fast using your own fresh ground coffee. With the original one I made about 8 ounces of coffee with the small included basket. Chefman says this new one brews up to 14 ounces of coffee from your own ground coffee. Also different is a water gauge and a cup lift is included on the new model. It was priced the same as the original one, ranging from about $40 to $50. When I bought mine I paid $39.99 and it was still that price on 12/5/21, but Amazon prices can change at any time.

Give A Cuddly Bear & Help Recycle At The Same Time!

What? How could that be? It’s easy. Re-Softables, like Kiki The Koala, I showed on World News Now is made from 11 recycled plastic water bottles. He’s 14” tall and a great gift idea for the really young, or anyone who loves cute plush toys. There are other Re-Softables too, like Ted The Teddy and BoBo The Bunny. I love that the manufacturer prints on the boxes “Ages 0+”. They’re right. Any age can appreciate these cute critters. They’re about $23 each as of 12/5/21. I paid $22.99 for Koala I bought on Amazon.
