I often receive emails asking about past gadget picks since My Daily Pick changes every morning. I thought it might be a good idea to create this “archive” page to make it easy to find a “pick” that you saw a while back (or even catch up on the ones you missed).
Please be aware that things sell out at times so there’s no guarantee that an item will still be in stock when you click on it.

These little gems will let you turn your small appliances on or off from virtually anywhere using your smartphone. These things truly have a million and one uses.
For example, did you forget to turn the coffee pot off before you left for work this morning? If it’s plugged into one of these you can turn it off remotely using your phone.
Or perhaps you hate returning home to a dark house. With this you can turn on a lamp in your living room before you even get out of your car.
