What's the easiest to clean microwave oven that's good at popcorn?
  RCA RMW742 0.7-Cubic Feet Microwave Oven, White
Hi Bobby!
You could try this one. It's not very expensive and should work very well for ya. One-touch popcorn button, and it should give you a solid pop. Reviewers say it's a good unit.
I suggest it for your cleaning purposes because the front is very easily wiped off, as everything is on one flat plane. Also, the rotating plate inside (which ensures even popping) can be removed and put in the dishwasher. How could it be any easier?!

What is a great 2 speed countertop blender for juicing?
  Oster 4093 Classic Beehive Blender
Here's a reasonable priced 2 speed blender. It has 2 speeds and a low speed pulse function, so you have control over exactly how pureed your concoction gets. Great for juicing... get it just right.
It blends, chops, grinds, grates, and crushes ice.
I love the classic beehive design... a great addition to any kitchen if you ask me.

Looks so nice how could you not want one?!

What do you think is the best confetti cut paper shredder for a small business?
  Powershred MS-460Cs
Here is a great one for ya. Confetti cut is a good way to go... great for security. It will do 10 sheets of paper at once. Has a pull out bin that holds 6.4 gallons of shreds. It will not only cut through paper, but cd's, dvd's, and credit cards too. It can also run for 10 - 12 minutes at a time.
This is definitely a large enough capacity for a small business.

What's the best small business paper shredder, in terms of maximum sheets per cut?
  Fellowes 3229901 Confetti Shredder, 17 Sheet Cap, 13-4/5 in.x17-3/4...
Fellowes is known as one of the best shredder makers around, especially for durability. They make a real solid product. That's why I suggest their brand for high quantities of shredding. They claim you can cut up to 17 papers at once, and I am sure this thing can handle it. It will do CD's, staples, and credit cards, too. It also has a jam proof system that sort of shuts down if it's about to jam, and it happens to be very effective. Great shredders from Fellowes!

What do ya'll think is the best printer for small business under $300?
  Brother MFC7860DW
Hi Charles.
For your business needs there are a few features that come to mind that you will probably want, all of which this printer will offer:

1) Laser... much cheaper to use in the long run than ink, as toner is inexpensive.
2) Wireless... this way anyone in your office can print easily from their workstation at any time.
3) Multifunction... might as well invet in a machine that will also allow you to scan, copy and fax
4 )Speed... print and copy up to 27ppm, also double sided
5) Adjustable, 250-sheet capacity paper tray, plus manual feed slot

All of these things lend themselves to small business needs, and I think you will be very happy with this machine.

I need a very small camera with very high quality optics... suggestions under $500?
  Sony Alpha NEX-C3 16 MP Compact Interchangeable Lens Digital Camera...
I have the perfect suggestion for you Jerry! This is like a compact dslr (except it's mirrorless) with interchangeable lenses and very high photo quality.
With its 16.2 MP Exmor APS HD CMOS image sensor you'll get sharp, low noise shots. It's really small and really good. Sony can make one helluva camera.
It takes video, has 25-point Auto Focus, Tiltable 3-inch LCD screen, ISO 12800 sensitivity, and plenty of other features (a whole list on the link). I think this is the one for you man!

I think Sony's addition to the tablet world has been overlooked. I think it's a very cool looking device that deserves some attention. Very attractive design and a good amount of power. Also, if you like playstation games you can play them on here! (And of course do all the regular tablet activities like browse the internet and stuff.)

What's the best 10 inch+ tablet?
  Samsung Series 7 XE700T1A-A03US
This is a really, very nice tablet from Samsung. It's like "laptop replacement" material, for real. It has a huge, beautiful screen, lots of power, and is small enough to be incredibly portable.
It actually has an 11.6-inch display with 1366 x 768 resolution. It has a 1.6 GHz Intel Core i5-2467M dual-core processor, which is up to 2.3 GHz with Turbo Boost. Add the 128 GB solid-state drive and 4 GB of installed DDR3 RAM and you have something nearly as powerful as many of todays laptops. This is a very capable tablet. It also has great battery life, which is nice on a tablet this large...they say around 7 hours.
I think this is a monster of a tablet! Gotta get one of these.

Plenty of people will disagree with this suggestion but these awesome laptops! Suuuper fast. If you like Macs and can afford one, in my opinion it is always a good purchase. These are built so well... it won't only be super fast right now but also a year from now and two years from now.

What would be the best monitors to use together if I want to have dual monitors?
  Asus VE228H
I'm thinking two of these would be perfect. They are perfect for a dual monitor setup for a few reasons:
1) good size for a dual set up. you don't want something too big because two will be overwhelming
2) price! since you gotta buy two of 'em I am assuming you don't want something super expensive... these are only 150 each.
3) quality. excellent quality, especially considering the price. I mean, I don't know what you are trying to do with these monitors, but they should get the job done for most purposes... 1080p resolution, 5ms response, 10,000,000:1 contrast ratio.
Should be a good setup. If you are willing to spend more we could probably recommend some different monitors, if you want.

Looking for a good quality blue tooth headset under $60.
  Plantronics Discovery 925 Bluetooth Earpiece (Gold) [Retail Packaging]
Oh boy do I have the headset for you!
Let's just start by acknowledging how nice it looks with the "alchemy gold" going on. Pretty cool.
But the important part is durability, right? You said a bunch have broken on you in the past... well I though this would be a good option for you because it comes with a fashionable little case to store it in when you're not using it. So instead of just dropping it in your purse, place it gently in the box and store it that way. I can't imagine you're breaking headsets while they'reo n your head... I mean how would you even do that? So they must be breaking in transit.
It has good reviews, and the first reviewer even say, "Light, Comfortable, Attractive, and Long Lasting..." so it seems like a good fit for you :)

best printer for pictures?
  Epson Artisan 50
I've found that Epson has some pretty cheap ink, I would say some of the cheapest actually. They have a variety of models, ranging in price and quality, so here a mid-range option for you. It will print high quality photos. Also, to help keep ink prices down, the 6 color cartridges are each an individual color. So you won't have to continuously buy new color cartridges, just the color that is low. You can get a black ink cartridge for $13, and the color ones are very reasonable too.

Laptop that can stay with me through years of college under $1100?
  Apple MacBook Pro MD313LL/A (Late 2011)
I had a Macbook Pro for most of my college years. Couldn't have been happier, from the performance to the durability to the mac brand. You want it to stay with you for years? Macs are so durable. In fact, I think that is part of why they cost a little more. You're not just paying for the parts or the memory. You're paying for an all-encompassing Mac experience, including great service and a predictably high performing machine, for years to come.
In fact, when my face plat started coming off AFTER my warranty was up I took it to the mac store and they replaced it for me anyways! They want their customers to be happy.
It'll stay with you throughout college for sure!

best 25 to 29 inch TV for watching movies under $500?
  Sharp LC26SV490U
This looks like a television that you would be very happy with. Simple, sleek, full HD resolution (1920 x 1080), and at a wonderfully low price. Sharp makes a good product... I think especially at lower price points it's important to pick a brand that you are familiar with.
It has LED backlighting and 3 HDMI ports so you will have no problem with connectivity.it's going to have a true HD display for you, which I think is the most important thing when talking about watching movies. Clarity clarity clarity.

best camera under $150?
  Panasonic DMC-FH25A 16.1MP Digital Camera with 8x Wide Angle Image ...
I think this would be perrrrfect for you.
The Lumix is a great little camera. It has an impressive amount of technology inside dedicated to helping the user get the very best possible shot. Things like: Intelligent Exposure Light Detection which increases the exposure in under-exposed areas of the shot by detecting the brightness level in each part of the image; Intelligent Scene Selector, where you pick the scene mode that best corresponds to your shooting conditions; Face detection, which recognizes faces and makes sure they are in focus (that's amazing); and Image Stabilization... just to name a few.
Basically, it will be super easy to get great shots on this little guy, right from the get-go. I think you will be very happy with it.

best Android tablet for gaming?
  ASUS Transformer Prime TF201-B1-GR
Perfect for gaming. Great at just about everything.
You get a 10" screen (bigger is better for gaming if you ask me) and an Nvidia quad-core CPU. You also get the awesome Android 3.2 Honeycomb OS which is 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich upgradable.
Basically, this is the fastest Honeycomb tablet there is.
Also, check this out: if you purchase the tablet with the optional keyboard dock, you not only get a full laptop like experience, you get a full-size USB port that can connect to standard game controllers. Then, you can connect this to your TV (via HDMI) and you have a portable gaming console. Awesome. Great gaming experience.

What's the best HD Camcorder for around $400-$500 under $500?
  Canon VIXIA HF M400 Full HD Camcorder with HD CMOS Pro and Dual SDX...
Vixia might be your best bet in this price range. There is one known defect with this camera that might be a deal breaker, so let's get that out of the way right away: the problem is known as Vignetting. That is, when you zoom anything more than about 50% of its zooming capabilities, you will start to see the corners get rounded and a sort of tunnel vision type thing will start to occur. It's odd that Canon, such a renowned optical company, would make a product with this problem, but they did.
Besides that silly problem, it's going to allow you to do all the things you want to do with very high optical quality. It shoots in full HD, and should have no problem shooting short films and outdoors stuff. It has two SD slots, which is cool because if you fill up one card as you're filming it will automatically switch to the next one, so you won't lose any footage.
They claim this camera has very low power consumption and in turn gets excellent battery life.
This thing should be able to film in low light, too. Canon's exclusive HD CMOS Pro Image Sensor, along with their DIGIC DV III Image Processor will provide very realistic color and impressive noise reduction for exceptional low-light performance, and in general beautiful images.

What is the best budget laptop for a college student taking online classes under $500?
  Acer Aspire AS5755-6699
I think this Acer would fit your needs quite well. It's easily under $500 and will be great on the internet and even has an optical drive. The most noticeable trade-offs you will see at this price point are battery life and processor... but those aren't even too bad on this guy.
You should only expect 3 or 4 hours of battery life. That being said, check out all the other cool stuff you will get:
-An Intel Core i3-2330M processor, 2.2 GHz. The i series is fast and great for multi tasking. Even though they have come out with the blazingly fast i7, the i3 will suffice for your purposes.
-You get Windows 7 Home Premium and Microsoft Office Starter
-500GB hard drive... wow... pretty big! Not bad at all. You can always buy an external hd later to add tons more space, if need be.
-4GB DDR3 memory. This is a solid amount of RAM... definitely won't slow you down at all.
-Intel HD Graphics 3000... you even get a graphics card
-Multi-in-1 Digital Media Card Reader for all your media
-802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi CERTIFIED with 10/100/1000 Fast Ethernet LAN for your online classes
You also get some usb ports and HDMI connectivity. I think this thing wil really perform for you! Look into it for sure.

What is the best underwater camera for saltwater under $150?
  Vivitar Vivcam V8400 8.1MP 8X Digital Zoom Underwater Digital Camer...
Well this isn't exactly what you asked for, but it's pretty darn close. It doesn't have a flash and it comes with a nice little torch light instead. I know you asked for a flash specifically, but here's the problem: every other camera I have looked at at this price point seems to leak water horrendously, at least according to the multiple reviews that I read. I read lots of reviews that were titled 'water leaked first time' and if it happened to them, it could happen to you.
This thing looks like it might do the trick.... no reviews about leakage, ata least. Seems pretty durable. I don't think you should expect amazing pictures, but they'll be okay, and at least they won't get ruined by the seeping water!
As for the camera, it's a 8.1MP, 8X Digital Zoom with a 4 Gigabyte SD Secure Digital Memory Card. They claim it will go down to 10 meters, which is about 30 feet.
This camera looks pretty legit! I think it's actually waterproof. A lot of companies call it waterproof when they only mean water-resistant, but I think this one is for real.

What is the best pocket-sized camera under $1000?
  Leica D-Lux 4 Digital Camera (Black)
The Leica D-Lux 4 would be perfect for you! I'm pretty sure if you look around you can find these for 7, 8 hundred...I don't know why this one in particular is so pricey. Fantastic camera though, and excellently compact.
The aspherical zoom lens (DC Vario-Summicron lens 1:2.0-2.8/5.1-12.8 ASPH) has a focusing range of 24-60 mm. This high aperture lens will capture some very impressive shots, especially for such a compact unit.
This thing shoots at 10.1 megapixels, and has a large 1/1.63" CCD image sensor that increases image quality. It can take photos in all three formats (4:3/3:2/16:9). It is very versatile and you can manually adjust all the settings to get the perfect individual shot for you... or you can set the auto scene mode and let the camera take care of the rest.
The main thing here though is that lens! Leica uses fantastic lenses and I think you will see a spectacular array of colors that other camera may not be able to capture.

What is the best point and click camera for action shots under $500?
  Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS7 12.1 MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Ima...
Man, for your price point and specific 'action' needs this would be perfect. At around $450 you'll be getting an excellent little point and shoot camera that is absolutely capable of capturing some nice actions stills.
Most importantly, you're going to make sure you are using it with the right settings, otherwise it won't perform how you want it to. For action shots, make sure you set the camera's top dial to 'shutter priority mode' (represented as an 'S' on the dial). Then, you can use the joystick to set your shutter speed to 1/250. Once you have done so, go to the camera's menu and set your ISO to 400. Basically, you will have set your shutter speed to really fast and the ISO must be higher as well (for increased shutter speeds you will have to raise the ISO, and vice-versa) but this should ensure some pretty awesome action shots, assuming the light is decent.
A couple other things about this camera, the 25mm ultra wide-angle and powerful 12x optical zoom lens should capture some really nice pics! Also, great for action shots, is the unlimited burst mode, where you can get like 50 uninterrupted shots consecutively! Perfect for a moving target.
As far as point and shoot, I don't think it gets a whole lot better than this.

What is the best multifunction printer for a small office?
  Brother MFC-9840CDW
Brother makes great small office equipment. I see one has already been suggested here.
Definitely color laser is the way to go, as it will save you money over time with low toner vs. ink prices. Depending on what exactly your printing purposes are you may be able to get away with a cheaper Brother printer, but watch out because some Brother laser printers cannot print front and back.
This will scan, copy and fax, too.
21 ppm in black and white and color is pretty good, but not spectacular.
Image quality is really high, and the included software is really easy to set up and use.
It is over all user-friendly and reliable, so I am more than pleased with it.

Best camera for travel and action photography under $250?

This is a tough price range for cameras because under $250 sort of puts you at the basic models, double that price and you start getting some advanced features, and double that again and you're into pro stuff. This will be okay for sports. It's got image stabilization and shake detection, which will help. The canon might be better for action shots though.

30 inches provides a lot of screen real estate to work with (res is 2560x1600!!!) So incredible. Huge resolution and color range. Watch movies or game in serious style. It might not be the fastest monitor, but the resolution is so good I think we can all deal with it.
Highly recommended.

I want some cheap earbud headphones that are a little better than the white ipod kind under $25?
  Accessory Power GOgroove
Soooo much better than the iPod ones!
These aren't hi-fi but they are a much needed step up from the crap that comes with ipods... I don't know why ipods come with such weak headphones...seems like a better headphone would make the ipod sound better which is good for Apple, but oh well.... better than nothing I guess.
These Gogrooves have a pretty nice sound, although a bit lacking in bass (still better than the ipod kind though!) They are very comfortable, and have interchangeable ear pieces so you can find the right one for you. The earpieces passively cancel some exterior noise just by the nature of their shape and build. They are also at a comfortable angle. Actually, comfort is one of their best selling points.
Definitely a good purchase.

Specifically, i would say look into the Hog Park, which is rated to +20 degrees F. Unless you're doing some real serious backpacking, I would assume that would suffice.

Very accurate colors, easy to adjust and customize. looks nice (even with the screen off!), and general usability is nice and easy. I think you will find that the only real neg about it is the built in speakers (crap) but you probably have some computer speakers...if not buy some for $10.

Anyone found a USB hub that will charge an iPad?
I don't think such a thing exists, as usb only provides up to 500mA....not enough to fully charge an ipad. However, as long as the ipad is off, even though it says 'not charging' it will charge slowly....like over night maybe.

What is the best large carry on with a laptop compartment?
  Case Logic VNR-217 Executive Rolling 17-Inch Laptop Case (Black)
Buy this bag for the warranty!!! 25 years! That's ridiculous. For the price, you can't get a much better bag. IF something breaks they will basically just send you a new bag, as long as you provide proper photo documentation that it is indeed broken.
But it has a laptop compartment and a main compartment that's about big enough for an overnight, two if you are a genius packer (like me!!)
It has a telescoping handle and very smooth rolling wheels. You can't go wrong with this thing!

I would highly recommend this blanket to you but only if you are planning to use it in your bed between some sheets or something. The reason is it sheds a ton!! Awful... make sure you wash it right away, because that helps a bit.
But as far as evenly distributing heat and staying warm, this is a wonderful blanket. It also has side/side temperature control, if you are planning on sharing your bed.

Besides liquid eyeliner (which I hate) this is the best long lasting eyeliner I have found. I feel like most pencil eyeliners provide similar results... it will look good most of the day, and maybe one touch up will be required. This is the same way. It goes on incredibly smooth, and doesn't bleed or run at all.
Avon makes pretty good stuff... you can count on good results!

What is a healthy alternative to my morning coffee?
I have a hard time eating in the morning too, Cody. And I find that caffein makes it even harder to eat for some reason... probably because it's so dehydrating.
I think the first thing you put in your body in the morning should be a tall cold glass of water. it will wake up your systems and get you hydrated.
then, start by trying to eat something super easy to prepare, like a banana or a yogurt cup. Maybe a piece of toast with some jam or peanut butter. At this point you could drink your coffee and not weird later.

The whole Vicks scent is kind of silly when you think about it though. When you blow your nose it's because it's stuffed, and you can't smell anything, so what's the point of a scent? I can't smell it until after I've blown my nose, and what am I going to do, hold the used tissue to my face and breath in the Vicks fumes?
Silly. But I love the lotion, so it's all good.

Aaaagggg you know how your mind wanders when you're trying to sleep...
anyways I found these are they are awesome! they help me sleep at night.
use it just like a door stop. turn the switch to 'on'. when any pressure is applied in the form of an opening door, the alarm activates, at 120 dB. such a great security device! I can take it with me when I travel, too.
The only design flaw is that the alarm does stop when the pressure is released, so hopefully by then the burglar has already vanished!
Good product though, and a loud alarm. I recommend it as another layer of security. Cheap and effective.

What is the best collar for a puppy?

Funny you should ask this because I just puppy-sat for my neighbor last week and this is what they had left for me to walk her with.
It seemed to work pretty well, although it is a bit cumbersome in that the neck hole is a fixed size, making it tricky to put on the dog. Seems like it should be adjustable.... this would make it more flexible for more dog owners.
But it works fine... slip it on (it's obvious how it goes) and connect to your leash.
I think the one I used was too big for this tiny puppy, so make sure you read how to buy the correct size for your pup.
It's a nice harness though, and for a puppy I think a harness is much more effective.

What are the best colors to wear for fall 11?
There are a few different color trends that should be showing up this fall, if my forecasting is correct! I'm not talking about individual colors here, but color schemes. Check it out!
One such trend is an avant garde style olive, pale gold, light bronze scheme. Mossy, pale greens (especially the olive) and a hint of pale yellow give this scheme an almost 60's appeal.
Another scheme I am seeing a lot of is in the blue/purple area. Deep blues, light purples and silver/grey make for slightly more cosmopolitan, urban feel.
The next scheme is my favorite for its complexity and drama. I'm talking about forest greens with plum and chiffon, accentuated with silver accessories or lining. Beautiful, striking and unusual colors.
One more thing I am excited about this fall is the 'color splash' scheme.... at least that's what I call it. There seems to be a trend of ornamenting your outfit with hot pink or bright orange colors (any bright color or bright pastel will do) for a slightly outrageous addition to your everyday outfit. Have fun figuring out how to add your burnt orange tights to your outfit. Careful not to over do it with the colors of course. It's an accent of color you're going for here. Subtle is key.
Good luck, and more importantly, have fun!

Also, the lotion has spf 15. I always thought it was weird that the proactive lotion doesn't have spf, because there's a whole section in the book you get with the proactive kit about how bad the sun is for your skin!

What is the best trunk net for groceries and stuff?
  Highland 95013 Black Three-Pocket Storage Net
this is a great trunk net. i actually have it set up in my four runner, but it will be equally effective in the trunk of your car. amazingly useful for groceries especially. it keeps them from tipping over and spilling all over the place. also will keep your bread from getting squished on the way home! ahh i love this invention... I feel like it should come standard on every car!
great for groceries and any shopping, really. also good for tons of other stuff that you would never think of until you use it, like travelling and day trips or taking stuff to friends house for dinner that you've already cooked and you don't want it to spill but there's no one else in the car to help you hold it!!! perfect for this scenario, and many others. a great little tool... a necessity if you ask me.

No image for these! :(
oh well... check them out on amazon. these are great and they're made of neoprene, which means they will be suuuuper durable and wick moisture from your butt! I love them... obviously make sure they fit your model, but you shouldn't have a problem with it.

How can I get road salt stain out of my car floor?
I've found that a simple solution of warm water and vinegar works pretty well actually. mix some together in a spray bottle or a bowl, get a rag, soak the area and wipe it up. Obviously don't use too much because it will make your carpet smell of vinegar!
This works very well for road salt. If you if doesn't work right away, reapply and try a few coats if necessary.

What's the best men's light jacket for fall under $100?
  adidas Men's Windbreaker Jacket, light scarlet/black, Medium
This is an awesome jacket. I love the way it looks. Got one for my boyfriend and he wears it all the time and tells me he loves it! I love the style of this type jacket.
It's totally a windbreaker in that it's 100% polyester. Some people don't like polyester, but if you live in a rainy or windy place you ought to have something like this... you're gonna need it.

What is the best men's briefcase under $100?
  Kenneth Cole Reaction Luggage Lock It Up, Black, One Size
Make a statement with your briefcase. Say, "I'm stylish and cool, and important enough to need a super fancy, lockable briefcase like this. That's how important I am - I have to lock up my documents when I go anywhere."
That's cool.
This thing is nice, too. Great stitching, beautiful leather. I prefer to buy trusted names I know like this when buying online, so I know it's going to be of high quality.

What is the best overalls for a guy?
  Carhartt Men's PVC Rain Bib, Green, Medium Regular
Here is another suggestion for you that might beter suit your needs, depending on what part of the world you live in. I know here in the pacific northwest it is very wet, almost all the time, so something like this becomes necessary.
This isn't the best material as far as heat or cold goes - it's PVC so it's like a layer of plastic around you. But, as far as waterproofing goes, these overalls are unsurpassed. And, they're made by Carhartt, which is renowned for their hard working, durable products. So in case you live in a swamp or a constant rain storm like me, here you go... the perfect overall for you!

What is the best fashion hoodie under $100?
  RVCA Men's Castro Hoodie, Green/Charcoal Gray, Large
These RVCA's are great... ooohhhh boy are they soft. It's a jersey-ish material... I think it's 90% cotton. Can't tell that it's not 100%, though. It feels really soft like cotton. Really soft and light. I love wearing stuff like this that just kind of drapes over your skin. Thought my boyfriend would like a similar material.... and like always I was right! He loves this hoodie! So do I!

How do you nicely tell a middle aged woman she is wearing the clothes of a teenager?
good question! this is a tough subject to approach anyone on. i feel like she has to already be aware that she is doing this, so pointing it out might be just what she needs to make a change!
personally, I try to approach all awkward situations like this in a funny way, because I don't really know how to deal with situations any other way! like I would make a joke about how 1992 called and wants it's outfit back, or something like that. kind of mean i guess.... but I don't know what else to do! if I get all serious then it gets weird!

What's better, Camry or Accord?
I can only say from my personal experience of owning a Camry that it is an awesome vehicle and I highly suggest it! Mine is a 2008 and it's a manual transmission. I like the manuals - a little cheaper and fun to drive. It's so easy to drive this car that it almost feels like an automatic! So smooth and easy. I'm pretty tall for a girl, almost 6ft, and I have plenty of leg room in the driver seat. Great gas mileage and over all a great value, and an extremely reliable car.
I hate to complain, but the stock CD player isn't very good, and usually takes like 3 minutes to start playing a cd. so annoying. other than the cd player I have zero complaints.

Does wrinkle remover spray work?
It works, but with varying degrees of succes depending on what type wrinkles you're trying to get out, and what fabric.
In general it works well for light wrinkles. If you leave your tee shirt on the floor all night and need to release some minor wrinkles, this product is fantastic. Just spray and then pull the fabric to get the wrinkles out.
With more deep set wrinkles you're gonna have to either spray and then toss in the dryer for a minute, or use as an ironing aid.
Great for light duty work, I would say.
Be careful with fabrics like rayon and silk - wrinkle releaser coud possibly leave some stains, and I wouldn't recommend it for these materials.

What's the best product to get out grass stains from a tee shirt?
  Ecover Stain Remover, 6.8-Ounce Bottle (Pack of 9)
I guess I'm kind of a sucker for this type of thing that's more natural - no harsh chemicals or anything - but i wouldn't use it or recommend it if it didn't work.
I think it works as well as all the main stream, chemical infused stain removers out there, just without all the nasty stuff.
Really works! Give it a shot.

What is the best thing to keep in my car for emergencies?
I had a similar concern a while back. I was driving along thinking, 'if anything were to happen to me, I am completely unprepared! all i have is phone and the clothes off my back!'
so i decided to put together my own little car safety kit, and am so glad i did, mostly just for piece of mind. I found a nice little bag that i had laying around the house and filled it with some of the stuff mentioned above - first aid kit, leatherman tool, blanket, jumper cables, flashlight, that sort of thing. honestly, I haven't even used it yet, but when I do i will be really happy to have it!

What is the best way to clean a gold watch?
There are a few ways, but I think a good first step is just warm, soapy water. Be aware of how water resistant the watch is, and plan accordingly. soak the band in the water for a few minutes so all the grime can loosen up a bit. Then take a soft toothbrush and start scrubbing - very lightly - all over the band. I wouldn't scrub the face or anything, but chances are most of the dirt is in the band. Just be careful about the water getting into the face if it's not waterproof!

How do you replace a rearview mirror?
That happened to me, too! It was too hot one day I guess, because it just fell off. You can buy a special adhesive at your local auto parts store and put it right back on there. In my case, I had to do it first thing in the morning when it was cooled off enough.
Obviously make sure you take the mirror off of the part that glues to the windshield, otherwise it will be far too heavy to set! Takes kind of a while to set properly, so be patient with it. If you try to rush it might not set right and may come right off again!

How do you clean old soda out of a cup holder?
It would be great if we could all get in the habit of wiping things up right after they happen, so it wouldn't get to this point! I do it too, though, forget to wipe something up and it turns into an immovable solid object :(
I would suggest soapy water and elbow grease. Dish soap is designed to power through food stains and residue (at least that's what the commercials say...) so it would be perfectly suited for this. Water would help too because the coke is solidified because it's completely evaporated, leaving some sort of sugary solid behind. gross. yeah an old toothbrush is a good idea

How can I get the wet dog smell out of my car?
I would fill a couple bowls with baking soda and set them near the seat over night. Baking soda does a really great job at absorbing nasty odors. A little air freshener will mask the smell until the baking soda has finished doing it's thing. I would keep all the windows up while doing this, so it can really suck in all those nasty dog odors.

I just bought these for my boyfriend for a wedding we attended. They are really nice looking, brushed nickel with a cool interlocking design.

What type of foot support do I need to help correct my flat feet?
I agree with cody... I think the root of the problem is in the ankle. If you can find a product that has a nice heel cup as well as some sort of arch support, that might be perfect. Pretty sure you can find those out there... I think Superfeet sells them.
