Caputo pizza flour

EPSON 5030UB 3D projector

Flavacol popcorn salt

Any beer from Founders or Bells.

So you like the Flavacol? I was going to invest in a popper based on Trembley's recommendation and saw this with it on Amazon. Do you use butter as well or does this stuff do the job?

Coconut or peanut oil + flavacol is enough for great popcorn. I prefer peanut popping oil because it has the same great taste but stays a liquid at room temp so cleaning up afterwards is easier. The oil + flavacol will give the popcorn a buttery taste of the movies.

If you want the "buttery" topping used in theaters then get Odell's Supur Kist II or even Orville Redenbacher's oil, heat it for 30-45 seconds in the microwave and pour on the popped corn. The stuff doesn't taste all that great on it's own but put it on popcorn with flavacol and it is excellent.

Pretty skeptical about this shave oil. And these sponges. They're...sponges.

About the shaving oil, I have a question. Doesn't shaving in the shower obviate the need for all that stuff?

YES

Best upgrade you can do to a computer.

Since this thread is brand specific, I like Crucial.

I like my Samsung SSDs but I don't think you can really go wrong between these two brands of SSD.

I should get some of these. I wear a lot of plain shirts. Last ones I got were from Target but the quality is not great.

For windshields I use 0000 steel wool pads. I do the windows before I even turn the water on to wash the car.

First review says these are not the same as they once were. When did you last order these shirts? I mean for the price I'm willing to gamble the $, but wanted clarification.

There are a bunch of different styles. I think that's where the confusion sets in for people. The ones I linked are really lightweight. My advice would be to get only one and see if you like it. It's a cheap shirt that's pretty decent and comfy. Nothing more.

Speaking of flip flops, love me my Chacos flip flops. Where those all summer and that's including work time haters.

Love feelgoodz flip flops. The most comfortable flops I've ever worn. All natural rubber. Had mine for 4 years now and I wear them alot. The only sign of wear is that the orange label is just now starting to peel away slightly, but I put these things through hell and back.

I have high arches so couldn't wear those. Chacos has some really nice arch support.

One of the curses of being tall is I can't order stuff like this. I need to go with the tall size so I've since gone with ll beans t-shirts and I'll never order another brand.

Does anyone have a printer they believe in? I bought an Epson inkjet about a year ago because it was cheap and I'm ready to just throw it away. It doesn't work most of the time. It's constantly jamming, prints blurry, the paper doesn't go through straight, the ink heads clog easily, it won't even try to print if one cartridge is even close to low on ink. I'm just looking for something that prints documents in black and white. I have no need for color and no interest in printing photos.

Get a laser printer. Toners for any brand can be found cheaply on ebay. I've had good experiences with Lexmark, HP, Samsung.

something like this?

Good topic, I'm about ready to chuck my inkjet. The last 2 I've had over the past 10 years just burn through ink. Tired of crappy looking or way too expensive print jobs. There doesn't seem to be anything solid and in between the two (full price name brand ink or low quality refill ink) for ink jet.

SO...is a laser printer the answer? If so, any suggestions for a good color printer?

MyPillow - premium

I was skeptical given the cheesy ads, but had heard good things. Best pillow I've ever slept on. It took a couple of days to get use to the different feel of it, but I've never slept better than I have in the last month since purchasing one. YMMV.

Seconded. The wife came home with a pair of these a few days ago. Fan-freakin-tastic.

What position do you guys sleep in? These looks way too thick for us stomach/side sleepers.

$110 for two king pillows? Are they that good?

I'm a side sleeper. When you purchase the pillow it takes you through a simple questionnaire to determine which model of pillow is best for you. Even though the pillow is very thick, the way it lays down around my head is fantastic. I think the reason I'm sleeping so well is that the pillow is keeping my head in a comfortable yet generally immobile position. The way it forms around my head/neck is unlike any pillow I've ever used.

Yup. They're hands down the best thing going for mosquito repellent. They're a must here in Aug/Sept.

Like Invisible Glass a lot. Meh on Thermacell - works well if you are hanging in one spot on a calm night, but any kind of wind and it's not all that great.

Alternative to sliding screen door

Love this thing.

For all you road bike nerds. Never get a flat since riding with these. Probably not needed if you have a thicker tread tire like a mtb tire.

Really like these for this price

I think they're advertising a particular scent used for hunting. Probably pointless to pay more for the "dirt" scented one and just use it hanging out.

Think that pertains to the earth scented wicks only, but I don't understand why that is. They make bigger lanterns for backyards/camping, etc.

If you're worried on a windy day, just move it closer to you. I won't go shooting, hunting, etc without one (I clip it on my belt when I'm on the move).

This is as close as I could find to the color laser I have. The models go out of production so fast it's crazy.

http://www.amazon.com/Lexmark-CS310n-Color-Printers-Printer/dp/B009SM8GYS

Been rock solid and an aftermarket complete set of high yield toner was only $110.

I will never ever go back to an inkjet again.

I recently bought a HP Laserjet 200 Pro MD251nw. I like it, it's a bit slow, but since I still have a B&W MFC printer (Brother MFC7360N) so if I need to print something quick and easy, I'm set. I mainly bought this for the kids to use for school stuff, but it's nice to be able to print every once in a while wirelessly from an iDevice. I haven't had to buy replacement toner for it yet.

Dyson - wife has asthma. I had no idea that a vacuum made that much of a difference. I was a slob and this thing is incredible.

Netflix - best $8 a month I spend

Sperry boat shoes - I buy a new pair maybe every 2-3 years and wear them constantly.

Panasonic tvs have served me very well.

I use this one and it's absolutely outstanding: http://www.amazon.com/HP-LaserJet-CP1525nw-Printer-CE875A/dp/B0044XSNHG (check other places for a better price though)

I used heavy color in my side business and this printed better than the professional prints I paid for at Office Depot, Fed Ex, etc.

Only caveat is that you have to use the HP brand ink...don't cheap out on the generic.

If you want great quality, this is it.

SSD hard drives

YES

Best upgrade you can do to a computer.

Since this thread is brand specific, I like Crucial.

I like my Samsung SSDs but I don't think you can really go wrong between these two brands of SSD.

Aside from heat(?), what are the benefits?

Incredible speed. Want to blow the doors off your laptop or desktop? Throw an SSD in there.

Just to expand on this a bit since I didn't have time earlier:

My desktop is built for gaming power. It is a top-of-the-line machine. Before I replaced my hard drives with SSDs, I would say that it booted in about 45-50 seconds. Nothing to sneeze at but not super speedy. When I start my computer now, it takes about 10-12 seconds to hit the password page. As soon as I hit enter, Windows boots and I can open any program immediately. I'm not sitting around waiting for the boot process to complete. It already did. All installations are incredibly faster. I believe that it only took something like 45 minutes to an hour to reinstall Windows on an SSD. And maybe another 30 - 40 minutes for the updates to download and install. Every program you use will be using a some portion of SSD and RAM to open and run. Changing how quickly the processor, RAM, and hard drive can access each other will significantly increase program speeds. This hard drive upgrade is HUGE. I usually do not have time to read cut-scenes in video games because they go by too quickly on this rig.

When I bought my laptop, it had some regular hard drive and a 20 GB SSD on the motherboard (20 GB? Why?). I immediately removed the hard drive and installed a Samsung SSD. I installed Windows on the Samsung SSD and use the pathetic 20 GB SSD on the motherboard for the Windows pagefile. My work Outlook account PST is about 7 GB in size (probably around 65k emails) yet Outlook still opens in about 5-7 seconds. Takes a bit of time because a 7 GB PST is a bit of a monster but it might take better than a minute on a normal hard drive.

And, yes, they also run cooler but performance is what you mainly get out of SSD drives, IMO. Once you go SSD, you never go back.

We bought a Dyson http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3264/2367913322_0569a3a0b2_z.jpgAbout 6 years ago. Best vac I've ever owned . Can't speak for the shark everybody is talking about but this thing was well worth the money.

Dyson is the Apple of vacuums.

The Shark Navigator Pro is as good as any Dyson at less than half the price.

that's all I paid for my Dyson
