Travel Gadgets: iClever 4 Port USB Car Charger Model IC-CC07 @hisgadget

Disclosure: We received a test product. You may have noticed we were on a road trip this past week. My kids tend to drive not only each other crazy, but everyone in the car when they are without their devices.

Poolside Entertaining with NewAir Portable Icemaker AI-100SS

Do you like to entertain in your patio or poolside in the summer? As a brand ambassador for New Air, we receive product samples to test such as this NewAir Ice Maker in stainless steel.

I think they’re perfect for poolside entertaining or if you have a mini-bar. I really like this product for small gatherings with the family or with friends.
