2021 Black Friday Purchases Update
I published a list of everything I bought during the 2021 Black Friday sales. Many of these were impulse purchases, and today, I reflect on which purchases have worked out well and which have not. I am hopeful that I will be more intentional with my future purchases by undertaking this exercise.
Briefly:
- Audioengine A2+: Amazing, best computer speakers I have ever had. The red colour is beautiful 👍🤩
- Orbitkey Desk Mat Large: returned
- Orbitkey ID holder Pro: have not been to the office, so yet to be used
- Orbitkey Nest: still in the box. I bought it for my office, but I am still working from home
- Carpio 2 wrist rest by DeltaHub: my wrists are thanking me. Highly recommended 👍
- Fire TV Max 4K: so much better than Apple TV, excellent remote and at a fraction of the price 👍
- Paste App subscription: yet to be used, cancelled renewal
- iStat Menu Family Pack: installed it on my Mac mini server.
- Peak Design Travel Duffel pack 65L in sage: used it during my recent trip 🤩
- Grammarly: a helpful tool for writers
- PastePal: yet to be used
- Moment Tripod Mount for MagSafe: used with the SwitchPod Tripod👍
- Moment Wall Mount for MagSafe: I have not found a use for it yet
- Moment Multi-Threaded Mount for MagSafe: I have not found a use for it yet
- SwitchPod Tripod: incredibly built and very handy 👍
- Adidas Hot Yoga Mat: sadly not used yet.
- Bose QuietComfort Earbuds: best noise-cancelling in-ear headphones (better than AirPods Pro). Use it daily on the treadmill 👍
- Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 (sale price too good to ignore): Returned
