SlumberSleeve

Where was this thing when I was in university?! This could have made my power naps between classes much easier on my neck. Note that I said between classes – I never napped during class – really.

The SlumberSleeve sleeve pillow is a first of its kind comfort device designed to prevent that numbness or achy feeling and enhance circulation. Since our sleeve pillow is worn over your arm, wrist, leg or ankle, it moves with you and you can change sleep positions naturally - and sleep like a kid again.

Seat Buddy

For all of us (me) who aren’t lucky enough to have Blu Ray in their car, just slide your iPhone or iPod Touch into the Seat Buddy (bad name) and be entertained for your entire trip.

Watch a video or movie hands-free from your iPhone or iPod touch on a plane, train, car or treadmill. Developed by an airline pilot, Seat Buddy features a wraparound design that cushions and protects your iPhone or iPod touch. Its rubber silicone straps pinch between airline seat-back trays and easily attach to car headrests via the included hook-and-loop fastenings.

Portable Hammock

No trees or posts means no hammock to relax on in the backyard right? Wrong. This Portable Hammock will yet you stretch out and relax wherever you are. In the backyard, the park, the beach, on your apartment balcony, or even in your living room.

This air-flow mesh hammock is over 8 feet long, yet folds to a compact size and comes with shoulder straps that make it easy to carry around. It literally takes mere seconds to set up this little piece of paradise, and its ultra-strong steel frame means it can hold up to 250 lbs.

"No matter what place you choose, you'll find nature is more beautiful and relaxing when enjoyed from the comfort of your own private, portable hammock."

Urban Aid On the Go Kit

This is the perfect little kit for traveling, or even just for a day out shopping.

The kit includes a mini emery board for nail breaks, a sewing kit if a button pops off, an elastic for your hair, band aids for any little nicks, and a stain treating towelette for little spills.

Executive Travel Kit

If you've got a sweetheart who travels a lot on business, this kit is for her (or him).

What do we love about the Executive Travel Kit? Can you say "silk sheets"?? How scrumptious is that?

You also get lots of necessities, like shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, lip balm, body lotion, stain removers, socks (!), toilet seat covers (nice touch, that ... but what kind of hotel would you be staying at if you needed your very oil toilet seat covers?), shoe shine sponge, anti-bacterial wipes, tooth brush wipes (interesting thought, that), hair brush, travel clock, travel candle, lint tape (yes!) and more ... more is always good. We don't know what the "more" is, but it's already quite a ton of stuff.

Sweet. Very sweet.
