We like to travel a lot so my wife uses those flat, clear tackleboxes with the adjustable plastic dividers. It ain't pretty, but very useful and easily moved around. Also super cheap

The ones I've gotten from AE have not been great. It's probably cheaper to buy them locally, too. Check the fishing aisle.

I have a bunch of clear plastic / acrylic drawers I use to store my makeup. If you type in 'makeup organiser' or 'organiser drawers' you'll get a bunch of stuff. One note is that the same products were significantly cheaper on eBay than on Ali so check that or Amazon as well. The drawers I bought were $10-$20 on eBay but closer to $40 on Ali.

Does anyone have advice on which of the "488 in 1" DS carts would be good for a 8 year old? She likes Animal Crossing, Nintendogs and Lego Undercover a lot on her 2DS.
Better course of action would be to buy an actual flashcart and an 8GB microsd and load it up with roms yourself. Premade compilation cartridges are a total crapshoot quality-wise, in terms of both the software included and whether the thing will even work in the first place.

I'd highly recommend using modchipsdirect if you are in the US good prices and you'll get it in like 3-5 days. They sell legit not copies and they won't rip you off like a lot if the sites have been known to do.

The first product from my first of three recent waves of AliExpress purchases has arrived!


Zipper Wrist Wallet Pouch Running Sports Arm Band Bag For MP3 Key Card Storage Bag Case Badminton Basketball Wristband Sweatband

The sleep wristband that came with my Fitbit One had long since given up the ghost; the dollar-store terry wristband I bought as a replacement did the trick, but I occasionally got some skin irritation where it held the Fitbit against my wrist. This zippered wristband works very nicely, and it's not as hot as either of the other two were. Bonus: my favorite color! I ordered it on 1/18 and it arrived on 2/1--very fast.

...Hmm, I'm looking at the picture and just now noticing the zipper teeth are messed up at the innermost end. I'll have to play with a bit; I'm not too worried about it. If worse comes to absolute worst, I have two more for backup. And they cost so little that I don't really mind too badly if it's a total loss.

Seriously, though, I have to stop reading this thread. Stuff makes it from here to my wishlist to my cart way too quickly. My most recent purchase was of three of those holographic polishes and the face vibe brush.

Quoting myself from earlier in the thread:

cyberia posted:

I bought these lights from AliExpress a year or two ago and use them when I have photo shoots to do. They came with a bag for the backdrop and stands and have worked without fault ever since. Not bad for $100.




I've also bought plastic clamps to hold backdrops onto frames and some different coloured backdrops and have been considering buying a cheap speedlight. Yongnuo is generally regarded as a good brand for camera flashes.

That's some kind of SG 550, not an AK. And the triangular bit on the cap should point up, not down.
