Save Snofling Snow Ball Throwing Stick, Colors May Vary

Discount SkiGear Bib Pant Womens
These pants are of good quality and the price is right. I purchased these for use outdoors while clearing snow out of my driveway and they keep you very warm and dry. They are easy to put on and i only needed to wear sweatpants underneath. However, the women's pants are a bit snug than i would've liked. If you want even more room, try the men's sizes. I purchased the women's XL so maybe next time i'll go with men's sizes for that extra room. Overall, a very good pant.Get more detail about SkiGear Bib Pant Womens.

Cheap Polar Pure Water Disinfectant
Shri says, "Just dip your water bottle over the side of the canoe to fill, add a capful of Polar Pure solution, shake, and wait 20 minutes" - but this may be dangerous advice. The problem is any water left on the outside of Shri's water bottle was, of course, not cleaned by putting iodine inside the bottle. Since Shri didn't get sick, the water was probably never contaminated (often the case). Shri should have, perhaps did, "burp" the treated water bottle in order to clean the outside as well. Just as important, though, is to regularly clean hands and cooking utensils (since these are more often the sources of bacteria and viruses). You can reduce the minor iodine aftertaste by halving the dose and doubling the wait time - including doubling either dose or time if water is cloudy (easier with this product than tablets like Potable Aqua Water Treatment Tablets). Instead, I add an acidic sport mix to both counter and cover aftertaste (only after 30 minutes to next day wait to let iodine first do its work). I dilute powder with twice recommended water to aid faster digestion.
Issues being addressed are large 2-15 micron Protozoa and medium 0.2-0.6 micron Bacteria most likely to affect dehydration by causing diarrhea as well as rare small 0.02-0.03 micron Viruses from other humans (so, animal waste not really a problem) most feel are actually not likely in U.S. Tennimon's natural sand filter suggestion could take a week to work optimally (so, should be treated anyway) and his claim of nasty taste (while never trying) is wholly unfounded. Just fill the Polar Pure Water bottle with water and shake. The solution will be ready for use in about an hour (using a half ounce for 4 liters of water). The particle trap should prevent crystals from getting into the water - this is important as iodine in a crystal is poisonous and can burn tissue or eyes. Always refill the bottle so the solution will be ready for next use. Enough to treat about 2,000 quarts (compared to tablets being good for only up to 50 quarts).
When camping, take water from the surface since it will be cleaned by the sun's ultraviolet rays while giving gunk a chance to settle. Important to remember iodine is less effective (requiring more) if water is below "room" temperature, so warming water first may be useful (say, by leaving in sun). Best if water is filtered in any way (even if just with a coffee filter) as gunk can shield pathogens from iodine (and no one likes to chew their water). Even the very best filters, though, can possibly leave some types of viruses (which are tiny dead protein fragments) which iodine will destroy. This product is the long standing standard, being better than other forms of iodine as well as chlorine. No treatment, of course, will affect toxins like industrial waste or heavy metals from mining tailings. Don't use if allergic to shellfish (since you're likely also allergic to iodine). Good for foreign travel as well as backpacking. Homeland Security also recommends having at home in case of emergency - they prefer either boiling or filtering AND treating water to be 100% safe.Get more detail about Polar Pure Water Disinfectant.
Buying DryGuy Wide-Body Boot and Glove Dryer

Buy Garmin eTrex H Handheld GPS Navigator
The Garmin etrex H (high sensitivity) GPS tracking receiver has enough basic features for what I needed at an economical price. My unit cold synced with four or more satellites in less than several minutes inside my house and even in my basement. It definitely has great sensitivity and quick syncing capabilities, when using the WAAS option enabled, which can give up to 10 feet (3 meter) resolution.
I use it for genealogy and other purposes for locating or tracking gravesites, ancestor residences and historical sites, but can be used for any geotagging and geocaching functions. It stores up to 500 waypoints, which I also use for traveling to specific places by foot or car, in case I need to return at a later date.
It's water resistant, which I needed on misty or rainy days plus an adjustable bright LCD display. The backlit feature is nice at night or in shady areas. Even though the LCD isn't color, no big deal for me! The mapping versions use color LCD displays.
It has multiple screens to give enough GPS information on the number of satellites received besides all the typical GPS data. It's easy to navigate through the screens with the five buttons on the side. However the manual isn't really clear as it doesn't show how to get to all screens, but I discovered using the up and down buttons for each page that more screens are available then what the manual indicates. Plus several pages have programmable data displays.
It uses several output formats for computer interface to maps. If you want the maps displayed, then purchase the etrex units with mapping software. It has NEMA183 output data for interface to computers with mapping software. However, the output interface is a basic four pin serial data bus, not an USB bus, which you need to purchase a proprietary serial bus cable from Garmin or other source.
Using AA batteries is important in case you need replacement or rechargeable batteries, available most anywhere. Of course it makes sense to carry an extra pair of extra AA batteries if you expect to use this unit more than the advertised 17 hours.
Overall, I would recommend this product for a basic GPS tracking receiver.

Purchase Polar F6 Men's Heart Rate Monitor Watch (Black Coal, New Design)
I bought this watch as a tool to help me through my long runs. I was very happy, a nice looking watch to monitor my heart rate, and it came with free shipping.
What I didn't like is that about 33 days into ownership of the watch, it became unreliable. It worked sporadically, and was inaccurate giving me readings that were completely off. I contacted amazon about a return, but I was outside of the 30 days and they sent me to the manufacturer (rightfully so). I had to send it to the manufacturer and wait 2 solid weeks.
On the return, the manufacturer stated that the battery was flat (dead), and that the transmitter had low conductivity of electrodes (aka: didn't work). I would say this was a "lemon" but I have heard and read that this has happened to others, I didn't think it would happen to mine.
They fixed it and were fine to work with, but I was discouraged that my "free ship" really was not a free ship after all, I had to pay to ship the watch to the manufacturer. My thought is you might want to learn how long your watch has been sitting in the box before receiving it. The only place to fix this watch is thru the manufacturer.
When the watch works, it's great. I am hoping to build confidence now on the reliability of this watch.Get more detail about Polar F6 Men's Heart Rate Monitor Watch (Black Coal, New Design).
Order ContourHD – HD Helmet Camera by VholdR
The camera is perfect for what it is designed for: outdoor sports. I've used it skiing and biking, worked great.
Cons: There are a few caveats though. The sensor is not very sensitive so no night filming for you. During the day it is great. While skiing I've had the microphone stop working once in a while, it's either the cold or snow from my gloves blocked the hole.
Pros: Battery lasts long and is chargeable with any USB complaint charger, I've used my iphone's and also GPS's. Head mounting is the way to go to reduce shake, it's way better than mounting any camera onto a bike's handle bar.
Future: It would be great to have wireless access to the camera, to get the live video feed and also to control, say, start and stop. Having ad-hock wireless network and feeding the video directly onto an iphone would be a blast!Get more detail about ContourHD – HD Helmet Camera by VholdR.

Speedo Race Lycra Blend Learn to Swim Superpro Swimsuit Best Quality
I like this suit. It is a pretty blue, and is very covering. I didn't find that the legs were 'high' like I had read on the reviews, which was good. I like a modest fit. The only thing at all that was a 'possible' detraction was the 'snaggability'. The suit is well made and thick but as I held my little one as she was trying to learn to swim the 'vest' she was wearing snagged snagged a couple of time on my suit while I was holding her. You can't tell it and I only noticed it when I was putting on the suit for the next swim. Great buy. Love Speedo! I have very small shoulders and a pear bottom. This suit makes me feel sooo comfortable in the water. I never have to worry about coverage for my top. The straps don't move! ;) I ordered a size up and am very happy. Size 12 jeans. Ordered the 38. Very fast shipping! Thank you Amazon. Get more detail about Speedo Race Lycra Blend Learn to Swim Superpro Swimsuit.
Schwinn Active 20 Series Recumbent Exercise Bike Get it now!
Bought this bike on sale and with free shipping. Was received in less than a week with free shippping. Moving the box whole requires two people. Took me about three hours to put together. That includes taking the parts out of the box and removing all the wrapping. All parts are included and all tools except for a phillips head screwdriver are provided. I used my own tools though (which are better than the ones provided). Most people should be able to put this together if you know how to turn nuts and screw screws. Bought this bike to fill gaps when the weather is to bad to go out and bike or walk. I am 5'11'' and can adjust the seat to fit me fine with a little space left. The seat is cushy, but it could be angled more. The foot straps are kind of tight on my feet. The fly wheel is silent. Doesn't make much noise, its it smooth turning and no smell at all. Since that is the biggest mechanical part of the bike, it was nice to see how solid it is. The computer takes a bit of playing around with to get to use to using it. The instructions on the computer are not to good. The computer screen is hard to see if in a poorly light area. It does not have a back light. This is not a commercial grade bike like you would see in gym. Doesn't have the little extas like a beeping sound when your RPM.s drop. And the seat could be more conforming. But for the price, quality and its size don't know if it can be beat. Get more detail about Schwinn Active 20 Series Recumbent Exercise Bike.

Victorinox 10-1/4-Inch Wavy Bread Knife, Black Fibrox Handle Buy Now
Cuts hard and crusty bread without crushing it. It is big -- if you have room for storage it is great that it is big -- one long pull and your are through the toughest crust and complete with your slice. My other knives are very expensive (Global and such). I got this because of reviews that said you can never really sharpen your serrated knives like you can other knives. I've had my $150 bread knife sharpened professionally several times. It gets sharper but not like new. My expensive old bread knife could not get sharp enough to handle super crusty bread. So, I got this Victorinox expecting to replace it in five or so years if and when it gets too dull. I had forgotten how nice a real sharp bread knife can be until I used this one last night. This should become a go-to knife whenever a serrated edge is needed.
BTW, in spite of the low price, it looks great hanging with my other knives. Get more detail about Victorinox 10-1/4-Inch Wavy Bread Knife, Black Fibrox Handle.

Planet Bike Beamer 3 LED Bicycle Light with Quick Cam Bracket Mount Decide Now
This light is the best LED light I own, especially for only 3 LEDs. The pattern of light is like a spot light and is bright and white. I can see trail details in a approximate 15 foot circle in detail at least 20 feet out, and larger details like trees, cars, etc. out to about 50'. It is also very easy to install, and stays in place well no matter the amount of bounce (I ride a mountain/comfort bike). I Like that when you want to remove it, you can either slide the light off the mount easily, or if you wanted to mount it on another bike, the quick release clip is just a "flick" away from release.
Aside from the solid mount where you can easily remove the light for using the light to assist will fixing a flat at night, I love how solid the light is. Most of my other LED lights have an issue with the rear spring the batteries make connection with, and if bounced around, the light will flicker. This one does not.
If I have a failure with the original (I used this light all last year without even replacing the batteries), I will replace it with the same make and model.Get more detail about Planet Bike Beamer 3 LED Bicycle Light with Quick Cam Bracket Mount.

JanSport Antics Series Wasabi Backpack Right now
I really like this backpack. I was replacing my old backpack that I have had since freshman year of high school. (I'm a junior in college now) I wanted something that could hold my books, had side pockets, and was cute. I've gotten several compliments on it about the color scheme. With nothing in it, the backpack is very light. Some backpacks are really heavy just by themselves. I really like the zipper at the top that is supposed to hold your ipod. I don't really use it for that; I use it for my cell phone and it works great. I also like the front zipper pocket. It's easy to get to things that I use often. The middle pocket has a velcro pocket in it and I find that useful for holding things I don't want sitting in the bottom of my backpack. I like the side pocket on it too. It is large enough to hold my coffee thermos without it slipping out. I had a problem with it falling out with my old backpack because the side pockets were a little too small. This backpack won't hold a laptop though. Don't buy it for a laptop unless you have one of the really small ones and have a case for it. There's no laptop pocket. Yup, overall, I really like this backpack. Get more detail about JanSport Antics Series Wasabi Backpack.

Cheapest Garmin Forerunner 405CX GPS Sport Watch with Heart Rate Monitor (Blue)
It took me a while to "push the button" on buying this watch. It wasn't the money. The price is a bit salty and other units out there are reported to perform well. But I wasn't keen on running with a cell-phone-sized monster strapped to my wrist so that I could save a few bucks.
No, my hesitation was because some of the online reviews I'd read were critical of the watches functioning - particularly the bezel interface.
I'm here to tell you - Don't Worry! I've had an opportunity to put this thing through its paces on both ends of the climate spectrum, and it performed flawlessly.
In one week, thanks to a trip to South America, I was able to use the watch in 90 degree weather and 20 degree weather. The watch performed well with sweat, with gloves, with cold fingers and hot - no issues.
You do have to know what you're doing, so as we in high-tech jobs say - "RTFM." (Read the freakin' manual!). I recommend establishing your nine key metrics (three each on three screens), set the watch to auto-scroll and lock the bezel after hitting the start button. You're never more than a second or two from what you want to know, and if there's something you're particularly interested in, set it as a data point on more than one screen.
This watch can't be beat, and if you're even remotely serious about running, it's worth every penny.

Cheap adidas Men's Samba Classic Soccer Shoe
First off, as the name implies, these Adidas Sambas are classics. They've been around 40 years (probably more) and they still look fresh! In my shallowness, I bought them on looks alone for around-the-house/ casual-Friday's.
They are a bit narrow, which is great for me. But they do lack a bit in arch/ball of the foot support. You'd think that if they're making these shoes for narrow-footed people, they would have better arch support because most people with narrow feet tend to have higher arches, right? If you have wide feet, you might want to avoid these.
As for the extra-long tongue, I have to say that I kind of like it. It makes the shoes unique. But I think if you wore low-socks, the tongue might chafe you and look funny. Also, folding the tongue down looks kind of dumb as you can see part of the sizing tag.
I found the sizing (10.5) to be pretty much right on, maybe a smidge bigger than my other Adidas. Overall though, for the price, these are a great deal! I really like these Samba Classics. They look fantastic and fit good for a casual shoe. I just wish they had a bit more support, then they'd be perfect.Get more detail about adidas Men's Samba Classic Soccer Shoe.
Buying CamelBak BPA-Free Better Bottle with Classic Cap
I use these bottles for hiking in the desert, mainly in the Grand Canyon. I used to carry water in a three-liter hydration bladder in my backback, but I found it difficult to monitor my water consumption--I never really knew whether I had one liter left or two. So, I switched to these bottles.
Here is my system: I use one bottle with a bite-valve cap, to which I have attached a drinking tube (the CamelBak Better Bottle Hands Free Adapter). That bottle goes in a bottle pouch on the outside of my backpack. I carry one to three of these 'classic cap' bottles, as well, depending on how far I am going and the availability of water along my route. They go inside my backpack. As I drain one bottle, I switch the bite-valve cap to a fresh bottle and continue. That way, I can monitor each liter of water that I drink and ensure that I pace my water consumption for the total distance to my next water stop.
The system has worked like a champ on several rim-to-rim hikes through the Grand Canyon, and it has the added advantage of being much easier to fill and keep clean than a hydration bladder. I'd recommend it without reservation.Get more detail about CamelBak BPA-Free Better Bottle with Classic Cap.

Shop For Reebok Fitwatch 10S Strapless Heart Rate Monitor Watch (Blue)
Big disappointment -- had to return item. The heart rate monitor only worked randomly, and the *lengthy* list of "hints" for what to do when it doesn't work suggests that the problem is in the technology itself. One of the "hints" for getting a reading is to "stay still, and relax your arms on a stable surface while taking your heart rate." Gee, interrupting my workout to stay still and relax my arms on a stable surface is not exactly what I bought a fitness heart-rate monitor for.
Looks like I'm back to the cumbersome chest-strap model. At least it actually works.

Speedo Vanquisher Swim Goggle Top Quality
Used these when I was on the swim team in high school and for the past 2 years doing triathlons. These are the only goggles that never: leak, hurt my eyes, fog up*, fall off while diving. This is my second pair and my first pair lasted me 6 years until I lost them. The straps on my first pair lasted me a good two and a half years before snapping from overuse, so I ended up buying a bungee replacement strap (excellent product by the way) which did the job. These goggles come with their own neat little case that you can put in your backpack and store them in for when you're going to the gym/practice as well as different size nose pieces.
*The fog proof layer on the inside lasted about 15 uses before wearing off. I figured it would be impossible for them to stay fog proof forever anyways so I wasn't disappointed. The real solution isn't buying expensive towelettes to smear on the inside but by just using your own spit! Just spit in on both sides, smear it around a bit, give them a good splash to get out the excess. Once their empty of all water just put them on and you shouldn't have any problems! Ask your local divers about this I'm 100% serious this works!Get more detail about Speedo Vanquisher Swim Goggle.

Lowest Price Genuine Issue Magnesium Survival Fire Starter
These magnesium and FEU fire starters are good but not great. The small diameter sparking rod, about the same diameter as a pencil lead is only good for about 50 or so strikes, and scraping the magnesium off the opposite side is a hassle. The Swedish fire steels are a much better alternative because they combine the magnesium powder within the sparking rod creating more sparks, and no need to scrape a pile of magnesium before striking, and the strike bar lasts for many hundreds of strikes. That said, these tools are very inexpensive and do perform as advertised. I recommend buying the ones with the small striker attached (made of a 2" piece of hack saw blade). If you use the back of a knife for striking the spark you'll vastly limit the number of available strikes. Get more detail about Genuine Issue Magnesium Survival Fire Starter.
Low Price ASICS Women's GT-2140 Running Shoe
I don't have personal experience with these shoes, but these were the shoes my daughter-in-law, a newly enthusiastic runner, requested for Christmas. They were to replace similar shoes that she had been using. She was very happy with them and we ran in a 5K race that started at midnight on New Year's Eve to celebrate the New Year and she came in first in her age group. I'm sure it was the shoes....Get more detail about ASICS Women's GT-2140 Running Shoe.
Save Champion Men's Double Dry Classic Fleece Open Bottom Pant
I'm kinda tall for a girl (5'9ish) and usually when I buy sweatpants in women's sizes, they're barely long enough to graze the floor but after I wash and dry them, they shrink up to my ankles. Call me weird, but I can't stand that -- I have to have my lounge pants long! So, I bought these and I absolutely LOVE them! They're comfy, don't shrink up, and they keep me warm without burning me up. They are long in the waist since they're guys, but it's not too bad. A lot of girls wear guys lounge pants, so it's really no big deal for them to be baggy in that area, ha!
Overall, these are a great pair of sweatpants -- perfect for guys AND girls!Get more detail about Champion Men's Double Dry Classic Fleece Open Bottom Pant.

Cheapest Coleman 4-in-1 Quickbed
I have several health concerns including degenerative arthritis of the spine and fibromyalgia. When our motorhome bed became too uncomfortable for me to sleep in, I thought my camping days were done for sure. I am only 38 and my husband and I love camping so this was very hard for me to accept. Last summer a big group of our friends were going camping for the fourth and we really wanted to go. I decided to give an air bed a chance based on the agreement that our trip might have to be cut short. I got this bed because it can be a tall twin without the metal brackets that so many of our friends have wasted a lot of money on and have not held up. I was very happy with how comfortable this bed is. I have even joked with my husband about using it as our regular bed at home. We ordered two so we could stack them and it worked out great. I did still have some trouble with getting up and down. It was also very sturdy. We live in a high desert and there are a lot of stickers around the lakes where we go camping. I was worried about using an air bed in these locations. We have yet to have an issue with this bed. I recommend this bed for anyone with health problems.Get more detail about Coleman 4-in-1 Quickbed.
