Best printer for a teacherQ: I'm a teacher working from home, and my set-up is just not cutting it. I need a lot of new tech, but my first priority is a printer. What's a good one that won't cost me a ton on ink? A: You're like me — you probably print a lot! That's exactly why I love Epson's EcoTank line. They have big, easy-to-fill tanks that come with a ridiculous amount of ink. You can print thousands of pages before you need to refill, and the ink is much more affordable than expensive cartridges. The quality is fabulous, too. |
Settle this security debateQ: My husband and I can't decide on a home security system. I want something affordable. He says we need professional monitoring. Can you settle the debate for us? A: Here's the deal. Traditional home security companies lock you in with expensive contracts and you have to deal with pushy salespeople and an annoying installation process. Check out SimpliSafe instead. It has sensors and cameras for every room, window and door of your home — and it won't cost you an arm and a leg. Your husband will love the professional monitoring that keeps watch to send police, fire or medical professionals if there’s an emergency. And you can install it all yourself. It's easy! Right now, you can get a free HD camera if you use my special link. Go to SimpliSafeKim.com and get free shipping and a 60-day, money-back guarantee, too. |
Getting serious about my dataQ: I've been slacking on backing up my PC and phone. I had a scare with my computer last week and thought I lost everything. I do NOT want that to happen again. What backup service should I use? A: The easiest, quickest way to make sure you back up every document, photo and video is with my sponsor, IDrive. You can sync all your devices to one account, too, so it's super easy to see all your files in one place. For less than $7 for your first year, you get 5 terabytes of cloud space. That should be all you need and more. You really can’t beat that price. Get your exclusive discount at IDrive.com and use promo code Kim at checkout. |

A better, cheaper way to print With so many of us working from home, I want to make sure you have the right printer that’s up for the task. The Epson EcoTank makes it easy. This printer has super-sized, easy-to-fill ink tanks and comes with a RIDICULOUS amount of ink — enough to print thousands of pages. No more rushing to the store and waiting for your online order to arrive to replace an ink cartridge in between print jobs. The quality is excellent, too. Add the Epson EcoTank to your online shopping list at Amazon, Dell, MicroCenter and at Epson.com/ecotankkim. → |
