Help Me Organize! Get Me A Charging Valet
Grace: The one thing I can’t stand about technology (besides all the troubleshooting) is all those wires laying around! I always get my cellphone charger confused and tangled with my sister’s charger, which, in turn, is always caught on my iPod charger. I love all my gadgets, but the mess they make is almost not worth it. I actually dread when I have to charge something, opening that drawer full of wires and chargers and weeding through it.
However, I found this Charging Valet that would make for a great orginizational gift. It has a power strip in the back that lets you keep all your chargers organized and ready for when you need them. Everything has its own little space, which keeps your gadgets (and wires) from getting tangled. I also love that with this Charging Valet, I won’t have to worry about where I put my charging cellphone. Normally, I just plug it into any outlet, including one on the floor, and just leave it there until it’s done. Unfortunately, I usually can’t remember where I put it! This is a great gift for someone who is sick of tangled wires and just wants to get organized!
Dan: Before now I have never heard about a charging valet before. You make a valid point and this organizational gift would be a great help! When I was confronted with the same problem, I ended up using twisty-ties, absolutely not as effective as the valet would be.
