Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or someone who only heads out of town on the rarest of occasions, there is one thing you simply can’t go without–good luggage. However, not all luggage is created equal, and the type you choose is largely dependent on what you’re packing, what type of trip you’re taking, and what you plan on doing when you get there.

There’s so much pressure when it comes to making and sticking to New Year’s resolutions, especially when those resolutions are focused on making positive changes in the interest of your health. You might have the best of intentions, but without the right tools at the ready, the risk of eating leftover pizza right out of the box before January has even come to an end is pretty high. To mitigate that risk and help you stay on track with your resolution, here’s a list of what I consider to be “must have” kitchen devices, appliances, and tips for healthy eating.

Like the vast majority of people who make resolutions, mine typically revolve around making positive changes to my diet and fitness regimes, and tend to be broken within a matter of weeks.

If you want to do the same, here are some simple solutions that will help reduce your carbon footprint and increase your green-factor.

In my five years as a blogger for Best Buy, I’ve reviewed a wide variety of products. From Blu-ray disc players to low-oil fryers, I’ve had a blast testing products and reporting my findings on the Plug-In Blog. But looking back at the past year, there was one product I tested far more than any other–headphones. So I thought I’d answer a few questions that might be on your mind, summarize for you what I learned about the different types of headphones, and share some insights that might prove to be useful to you.

The big day is less than a week away, so if you haven’t already been listening to Christmas songs old and new, now is the time to start tuning in and getting into the spirit. That’s why this 9th day of Christmas is all about the Ultimate Ears Boom2 wireless speaker.

When I think of the brand name De’Longhi, images of multi-function espresso makers and perfectly frothed cappuccinos immediately come to mind. In fact, until very recently I wasn’t aware of the fact that De’Longhi was such a big player in the small household appliance segment. Of course, that all changed when I was asked to bust out my culinary chops and test the De’Longhi MultiFry Low-Oil Fryer and Multicooker.
