Altego 14″ Laptop Sleeve by Samsill
Posted by: | CommentsI’ve been trying to expand the variety of different home office supplies that I review here, and the nice folks over at Samsill were happy to help me out with that task. When I saw their Altego Laptop Sleeve, I couldn’t get over the way it reminded me of a giant bubble wrap laptop sleeve and I had to get my hands on one to review.
Best Gel Ink Pens
Posted by: | CommentsI was checking out Amazon.com for the top selling gel ink pens and here is what I found in order of popularity:
1. Uniball 207
2. Pilot G2
3. Pilo FriXion
4. Vivo Triple
5. Zebra Jimnie
So I’m just curious, which of these 5 are your top pens to use? Personally I have a few in this list that I use, but its surprising to me that this is the list of the top 5 gel ink pens on Amazon, so share eyour feedback with me because I’d be thrilled to hear your comments and get to understand whats going on here.
Just a quick reminder that I’ve been compiling an Amazon store with all of the items I’ve liked and reviewed so it is easier for you to find them if you are doing some office supply shopping. Hopefully you will find this a helpful way to find some cool home office supplies to stock your supply cabinet with.
IdeaPaint Dry Erase Paint Review and Giveaway
Posted by: | CommentsThe concept of being able to use dry erase paint to turn anything you want into a dry erase or white board has always been a pretty cool idea to me ever since the first time I heard of it, and recently the PR folks from the company that makes IdeaPaint reached out to me to see if I would like to give some of it a try and, review it. They also offered up the opportunity to give away a set of their dry erase white board paint to one of my lucky US-based readers. Once you read the review, check out the rules at the bottom of the page and enter for your 3 chances to decorate your home or office with this IdeaPaint dry erase white board paint.
Quick Update - IdeaPaint is now available at DickBlick in 25 and 50 square foot packages and also in multiple colors. Check it out over there, as they often have deals for free shipping on orders that are in the range of what this product usually costs.
Erasable File Folder Labels
Posted by: | CommentsFile labels are something that we have probably all dealt with, I know that personally I’ve found myself either trying to remove or reapply labels, because I made a mistake when writing on them, and it is usually a frustrating exercise. The folks at Label Once came up with the Erasable File Folder Labels that I picked up from Organize.com as a way to deal with the re-labeling frustration that we have probably all dealt with when it comes to our home office supplies.

“I was eying the Uniball Signo DX for such a long time! I’m a student and I’m very crucial when it comes to taking notes and the pens I use. When I highlight texts, some of the pens I use aren’t waterproof.. so they smudge! But, if I can get a hand on these babies.. it’ll be amazing!”
She was random.org’s selection to win the gift card according to the screen shot below. I will send JetPens your email address and they will be in contact with you. Let us know how you like those Signo DX pens if you get them.
