What good is a smartphone if it’s always running out of juice? Sound familiar? One of the best gifts you can give the smartphone “heavy user” is an external battery that can keep ‘em charged up and on the go! One of the highest-rated, best reviewed options we’ve found is from a company called New Trent. They consistently get 4-out-of-5-star or better reviews on Amazon and their battery packs have adapters to juice up most Android phones, iPhones, and Blackberries! But wait, there’s more!

Pro tip: Find My Car App
This week’s pro tip is for those of you who have trouble remembering where you park your car. With holiday shopping and such, this can happen a lot. To help remember where you parked, there’s a sweet mobile app called Find My Car. The Wall Street Journal has selected “Find My Car” as one of the 10 ten apps that will change your life. Find My Car is available for the Android and iPhone, and if you don’t have a smart phone, you can do it the old fashioned way and just remember where you parked.
That’s all the time we have for this week, we hope you have a great weekend! Let us know what you think in the comments!
