Question from Barbara:  Hi, Rick. I love your site and all the great info you provide. I have a quick question for you.

I recently started shopping for a new camera and I’ve noticed how few there are in the stores these days. Places like Walmart and Best Buy used to have dozens of them to choose from but now they only have three or four.

It seems like actual cameras are on the verge of becoming obsolete. Am I right?  [Read more…]

Have you ever pushed your buggy into the checkout lane at a grocery story and watched the person in front of you pull out a stack of coupons as thick as a brick, then use them to buy $200 worth of groceries for $28.73?

I have, and while I was a little annoyed at having to wait while the cashier scanned all of those coupons, I couldn’t help but admire the customer’s ability to save a ton of cash just by clipping a bunch of coupons.

If you’re a coupon clipper too, chances are you get them from a variety of sources including the Sunday paper, a favorite magazine or even your mailbox.

What you might not know is that you can find coupons for virtually anything you buy right on the Internet and print them out on your printer or download them right to your phone. No more waiting around for the next Sunday paper to arrive!

I receive lots of tech questions here at Rick’s Daily Tips, and there’s one question in particular that I receive time and again:

“If I delete a message I’ve sent to someone on Messenger will it be deleted from the recipient’s inbox as well?”

The answer to that question used to be no, but Meta changed that a while back.

Now when you send someone a message you have 10 minutes to change your mind and “Unsend” it if you want to. And it’s very easy to do. Just follow the steps below for the device you’re using.  [Read more…]

How Internet access changes when you travel abroad

Posted on January 30, 2026

When you travel to a new country, you expect things to be different. You know the food will be unfamiliar, the shops will work different hours, and even the way people greet each other might be new. But what many travelers don’t consider is how different the internet can be abroad.

At home, getting online is usually a breeze. You just hop on your home Wi-Fi or use your mobile data, and you’re connected. But when you’re traveling, what was once a simple task can become a frustrating challenge, even for seasoned globetrotters.   [Read more…]
