Bought this for coverage for my new Jabra 75t earbuds, just in case something happens to them.
Nothing may happen to them, but they're not cheap and I'd prefer to take care of my tech gear rather than not.

Bought these due to the work-from-home remote world and needing something that isn't wired so I can move around when I'm on a call.
It does take time to set these up via the Jabra app, but it's worth doing to get all the settings just the way you like them.
They seem to hold a charge for quite a while - realize you'll be charging the case to charge the earbuds, so don't lose the case!
This is one generation older than the more recent earbuds from Jabra (my local store was sold out), but I have no complaints and they do exactly what I need them to do.
Realize there's a "sport" version of these if you need waterproofing, so pay attention to what version you're getting if that's what you need.

This is basically the card that you use in-store (or online) to buy the basics of MS Office. You'll have to do a digital download either via email, or by going to the MS website and keying the code in.

This was a present for family, so they'd have the MS Offices basics on their laptop. If you're only needing Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, then this is for you. This is also the full price purchase version, not the "rent-to-own" version where you pay for it monthly.

I needed an "easel" style phone charger so I could read my phone while it was charging and I was doing other things. I didn't see any other brands that I though might work for my S10+, so this was a "pandemic purchase" to get the equipment.
Pros: It's "official" Samsung gear, so no worries about issues charging you Samsung device on it. Simple to operate, and also looks nice as well.
Cons: This is WAY overpriced, and the USB-C cable is EXTREMELY SHORT for what you get...it severely limits where you can put this in relation to the plug & outlet.
Controls for the fan only work with certain Samsung devices, so if you're buying it for that, make sure you read up on which Samsung product (the Note?) controls its addtl. features.

Needed a new gaming mouse pad, and found this one at the local BB store.
It was a touch smaller than what I wanted (same size as 6 Galaxy S10+ in a 3x3 array), but it fits very nicely on my gaming desk and is large enough for a spazz gamer like me.
Note - it's rolled up pretty tight in the box, so you're going to need to take it out and let it lay flat (preferable with some weight on 2 of the corners) so it fully smooths out and doesn't curl on 2 edges.

Randomly found this item on a trip to BB for other items. It was an Open Box product (nothing wrong with it, apparently someone didn't like it) and the Open Box price was MUCH BETTER than the regular price for the product.
It's the "Insignia" brand, and comes in a nice case with all the parts put into foam to hold them in place, along with a color-coded world map and instructions.
You'll have everything you need to get power from an outlet as you travel the world, but only 1 outlet, so you're likely going to need more adapters to power more tech.
If you can find it at a better price at BB, and have need for the product, I'd advise checking it out.

Use this as my work mouse, since I have to do a lot of clicking every hour as I work.
Much easier on my hands than a traditional mouse, and this is at a decent price point as well. (There are more expensive ones at Best Buy if you want to spend more).
They changed the branding a bit on it, but still the same device.
My previous one lasted ~4 years, but the buttons finally wore down after hard use in an office environment, so I feel I got my money's worth, and it's why I purchased the same one as a replacement.

Was more than happy to pay the minor fee to have someone install the Zagg screen protector on my new phone. I'm a klutz and never manage to install them properly, then it freaks out my OCD.
Cost was great, and it took less than 15 mins. to get it done. Would do this again for devices when I need a screen protector installed.

Wanted to get an OtterBox with my new G S10+, and this was a good option for both protection, and to not have to pay for the belt holster, which I never use. (If you want that holster, there are other cases that come with it.)
Putting it together was more complicated than it needed to be, since the case has two components to it, and the instructions are minimal. Don't be a typical bro and just slam the phone into it...the 2 pieces separate out and are nested inside each other, and so it fits properly to leave an opening for the ports/speaker on the bottom of the phone. (Probably vids online that show how to assemble properly.)
The opening on the back is well suited for the camera ports there, and the covers for the headphone jack/charging port are a bit odd looking, but protect both.
If you really want to protect your phone, OtterBox is the way to go in my opinion...worth the price for the peace of mind and device protection.

You're excited to buy a new computer — now, make sure to protect it. Geek Squad® Protection enhances your manufacturer warranty and covers you for accidental damage.
 

Does it cover an item purchased in store but when I got home it doesn't work?

Why wouldn't you take it back to the store for an exchange or a refund? That's what they're going to do for you anyway if something was sold to you that is defective/non-functional?

Can ANYONE tell me the app i need to download to my phone, which is a: ANDROID KYOCERA E6810, to be able to activate or turn the fan on this wireless charger? I have downloaded several apps but NONE of them work. Thank you have a nice day!

I had this same question with my Samsung phone...according to Samsung's website, you can only control the fan on this charger via a Note10, and even reading reviews on their website people with Note10's have had problems trying to get that functionality to work.

I just used the adapter/converter on low setting for my Xbox one from America in Israel & the light on the power brick kept switching between blue/orange rapidly so it was unable to turn on. Should I switch the converter to high setting or will it fry it?

You need to know how many watts your Xbox needs. The converter has instructions on it what should be using the low settings vs. high.

You say a dongle is used in the USB port to use the wireless mouse but suppose I need to use a flash disk. Is there more than 1 USB port so I can use the wireless mouse and flash disk at the same time?

You would have to look at your computer/laptop to know that...most every PC/laptop comes with at least 2 USB ports.

I haven't seen one that's left handed in the wider marketplace. You may want to check on Logitech's website to see if they even make one.

The Glass Fusion is flexible to absorb and deflect the shock of impacts, while the oleophobic finish prevents smudges and fingerprints to maintain screen clarity. This ZAGG InvisibleShield Glass Fusion screen protector comes with EZ Apply tabs for simple bubble-free installation.
 

Are there any cases that work with this screen protector? i.e. the insignia hardshell case sold by best buy. Do they play well together? Previous glass screen protectors did not. The case always broke the glass.

I'm using an OtterBox Commuter with this particular screen protector, and it works very well.

This 6' Insignia™ NS-PU965XF USB 2.0 cable is designed for use with PC and Mac and features speeds up to 480 Mbps for efficient data transfer to and from devices.
 

The sales person at Best Buy sold me this cable to connect my new ADS-2700W scanner to my Dell computer (Windows 10) . Computer will not recognize the scanner when trying to set up. Is this cable the right cable for this application?

I don't think so...this is a cable, loaded with its own software, to transfer files between computers...sounds like you need a regular cable to run data from your scanner to your Dell. There's other cables you should get for this, depending on the connections each has.
