I've Got A Problem ... Can You Help Me?

WorldStart's Tech Tips WorldStart

ws - 2014-01-08

I've Got ALL These Deals... HELP!

So I just got bombarded with a bunch of AMAZING deals. Instead of playing games like the big box stores would, I'm just puttin' them all on sale for ultra-cheap! That means YOU are gonna get first access to them right here, right now! If you could just scroll down and take a look at everything we've got, I'd really appreciate it!




Bring Your Computer With Ya ANYWHERE You Go!

But You Can Leave The Cords, Cables, & Bulky Cases At Home!

Check Out This BRAND NEW 7" HD Tablet!

All The Power of a Computer IN YOUR HANDS!

"What Can I Do With a Tablet?"

Well... EVERYTHING!

Web Browsing, E-mail, Games, Movies, Music...

If a PC/Laptop Can Do It, SO CAN THIS!

GET ONE FOR UNDER $100!

YOU WON'T FIND A DEAL LIKE THIS ANYWHERE ELSE!

The Best Tablet Deal In The WORLD!

Is there anything nowadays that DOESN'T require a computer?

Sure, they're fast, more efficient, and incredibly versatile. But what good is that when they're huge, bulky, and weigh a combined total of 60 pounds with all the pieces?

Yeah, good luck using THAT when you're on the go!

"But Steve, I have a laptop..."

STOP RIGHT THERE!

Even LAPTOPS are too big! If you've ever tried taking one on a plane or in the car (or even just in your favorite chair at home) you quickly realized it's a little more than you wanted!

Not to mention the heat they generate and only have like a 2 hour battery life! WHAT'S THE POINT?!

If your wish was a full-powered computer with a nice, HD screen that you could ACTUALLY take with you no matter where you are... CONSIDER YOUR WISH GRANTED!

You NEED a tablet... and we're the only ones that have a tablet THIS GOOD for only $99.97!!!

INCREDIBLE POWER - INFINITE APPLICATIONS!

If you go to ANY big box store, you'll quickly find out why you don't already have a tablet: they're trying to charge $300 MINIMUM for these things (some of them can run up to $1000!!! WHAT?!?!)

If you're familiar with tablets, you already know that they're definitely worth that much!

A brand new computer costs at LEAST that much and does the EXACT same things you can do on a tablet!

But a tablet is more portable, more convenient, and has access to a LOT of handy applications!

I mean, just take a look at this bad boy!

Dual-Core Processor For Unrivaled Speed!

1 GB of RAM

Up to 40GB of Storage with a MicroSDHC Card!

Front & Back Facing Cameras!

Orientation Sensor for Viewing In Landscape or Portrait

Built-in Speaker & Microphone

Integrated Wi-Fi Compatibility

AND THAT'S ONLY A SNAPSHOT OF EVERYTHING THIS TABLET HAS TO OFFER!

Computers Have NEVER Been Easier To Use!

The Android interface was designed to be quick & easy to learn!

With a few taps and a couple of swipes across the HD capacitive touchscreen - you'll be FLYIN' through websites and movies with ease! And reading eBooks JUST like an eReader too!

It does EVERYTHING you'd need a computer to do! Check your e-mail, browse your favorite websites, watch a movie, jam out to some music... EVERYTHING!

"There's no way it can do EVERYTHING..." OF COURSE IT CAN!

It's ALL in the Apps! - For every function that doesn't come STANDARD on the tablet, you can bet there's an app for that!

Need to keep track of financial information? There's an app. Want a chat program? There's TONS of apps for that! Looking for an easier way to convert currency or measurements across systems? IT'S IN THE GOOGLE PLAY STORE!

Almost ANY app you need is FREE too! Does it get better than that?

And every day, thousands of new apps are being added, updated, or reworked! It's UNBELIEVABLE!

THE DEAL THAT SHOOK THE WORLD!

Like I said earlier: tablets can be EXPENSIVE!

I say "can be" because there's always an exception to the rule. That exception is RIGHT HERE, BABY!

This brand new tablet is only $99.97 with FREE US SHIPPING!

THAT'S UNDER $100!!!

You could pay up to TEN TIMES THIS MUCH on other tablets! Why would ANYONE do that?!?!

Get yours at the link below before they all sell out (and they WILL sell out!)

http://store.worldstart.com/product/9371

PS - Assuming we even have enough to last until Thursday , these WILL go up to $114.97!!

You Can't See Anything In This Weather!

Windshield Wipers Can't Do The Job Alone!

Repel-It Windshield Treatment Clears Things Up!

Convenient Wipe Lasts For Up To Six Months! No Streaking!

Car Dealers Charge Outrageous Prices For This Treatment

We've Got It For Under $5 !

You know how it is, you're driving in the rain and it looks like someone is throwing buckets of water right onto your windshield. Your windshield wipers are doing the best they can, but you still can't see a thing. IT IS DANGEROUS!

And it's not like those wipers are falling apart, you just bought them. And if you're out driving on the highway with big trucks throwing water back at you, it can be pretty darn scary.

The solutions is Repel-It Windshield Treatment. It makes your windshield hydrophobic. That means water (and the grime and gunk that can splash up on your windshield with it) will bead up and make it much easier for your windshield wipers to swoop it away.

It's not just rain that will stay away... Dust and bugs are much easier to clean off.

EVEN SNOW AND ICE will be easier to take off.

Where I live, there's a saying. If you don't like the weather, just wait five minutes. We get it all. Rain, snow, ice, sleet... We'll go from 70 degrees and rain on Wednesday to 20 degrees and snow on Friday. And let me tell you, I end up doing a lot of driving not matter what the weather is like. This treatment is absolutely perfect.

Look at the difference it makes!

TREATED UNTREATED

You could have it done at your car dealer, but look what they charge you! I grabbed this shot from an actual car dealer's website. the price starts at $29.95 and you know how they love to tack on extras.

Repel-It Windshield Treatment is only $4.97 !

This durable treatment can last for up to six months! Plus it's a wipe, so it's super easy and convenient to apply to your windshield.

Not only will this improve your vision, your wipers will last longer because they'll have a lot less work to do.

There's no bottles or applicators to fuss with! Just open the convenient package and apply the treatment with the disposable wipe for streak-free protection!

We managed to get a special deal on these, so we've got a limited quantity and at $4.97 , they won't last long.

And if your order is over $5, you get FREE US Shipping!

So click the store link below and get yours now!

http://store.worldstart.com/product/9337

Hurry! If we have any left on Thursday , the price will jump back up to $8.97 !




Viruses, Cybercriminals, And Dangerous Websites...

THEY'RE EVERYWHERE AND THEY WANT YOUR COMPUTER!

You Need The #1 Name In PC Security...

AT A PRICE EVEN THE MANUFACTURER CAN'T OFFER!

High-Speed Scanning + Vulnerability Scanner...

Kick Viruses Out and KEEP THEM OUT!

It Even Protects You From Malicious Websites!

Shop & Socialize Online With Confidence!

You Won't Find Security This Strong For $12.97 Again!

It's Not Paranoia...

...if they're actually out to get you!

And when you're online, you better BELIEVE that there's all kinds of viruses, worms, and unfriendly people lurking around that digital corner!

Anyone who knows ANYTHING about computers knows you can't be safe without some help!

Tech savvy types of all kinds will tell you - there's just too many potential problems to think you can avoid it all!

So who do you trust with your computer?

Duh! THE MOST KNOWN NAME IN SECURITY, THAT'S WHO!

McAfee Antivirus Plus 2013!

It's like giving your computer a military protection detail 24/7!

No matter where you go, what you download, or what you do, you can rest assured knowing your PC is practically impenetrable!

Viruses? Hahahaha! They don't stand a chance!

With the high-speed scanning engine you'll be able to spot 'em instantly and blast 'em into oblivion!

You can even set it to run automatically on startup so EVERY time you boot up that PC you can make sure it's as clean as whistle!

STOP 'EM AT THE FRONT DOOR!

There IS something better than finding & destroying those pesky viruses... keeping them out in the first place!

McAfee Antivirus Plus 2013 not only scans for current problems, it'll double check your whole PC to see if there's any potential vulnerabilities!

If there's a security flaw in your browser, or if your Internet has a particular hole that needs patched up then McAfee will get it fixed right then and there!

Talk about awesome!

That's like keeping your security detail AND THEN bunkering down in a bomb shelter!

Your computer will be tougher to break into than Fort Knox if Fort Knox was also surrounded by little Fort Knox replicas with a gigantic floating Fort Knox on top of it!

Subtract Malicious Ads From Your Browsing!

Say you go to a trusted website - but you notice that banner ad up top is looking a little suspicious.

Did you know that sometimes intruders can use those ads to sneak downloads onto your PC?

Well, McAfee knows. And that's all that matters because with this you won't even have to give it a second thought!

Malicious ads, banners, and hidden code won't stand a CHANCE at getting into your computer!

If McAfee thinks a website might be up to no good, it'll let you know BEFORE you get caught in their web!

IT EVEN TUNES UP YOUR PC!

First, it'll clean up all those unused files, applications, and that "junk" buildup in your cached or temporary folders.

We're talkin' TONS of little files you never even knew existed!

McAfee finds 'em and kicks them out for good!

After that, you can use the digital data shredder to make SURE that you don't leave anything on your PC that you wanted gone.

"Cookies", sensitive data, and your browsing history sometimes doesn't get deleted like you wanted to!

But since you have the digital data shredder, you're good to go!

ALL AT A PRICE THAT YOU WON'T BELIEVE!

We looked at McAfee's site when we first found this...

...and saw something we thought was HILARIOUS!

Take a look at how much they were charging for this!

WE'VE GOT IT FOR JUST $12.97 WITH FREE US SHIPPING!

Talk about laying the price smackdown!

Even the manufacturer is gettin' demolished!

http://store.worldstart.com/product/8970

There IS a catch, though - we only have about 40 of these available. Once they're gone, they are G-O-N-E! Don't say I didn't warn ya!




What If A Thief Could Steal From Your Bank Account...

Just By Walking Past You?

IT'S NOT SCIENCE FICTION - IT'S A REAL POSSIBILITY!

Protect Yourself From RFID "Wireless Identity Theft!"

These Tough Credit Card Holders Shield Your Cards!

On Top Of That, They're Just Some Good Old Shock Protection!

Never Worry About Bending Or Breaking Your Cards!

Sometimes Technology Makes It TOO Easy...

You know how it is, something comes along and makes stuff simpler for everyone.

Well, guess who's part of "everyone"? Thieves.

Credit cards and debit cards can be scanned by all sorts of devices.

Heck, there's even new electronics you can attach to your phone to let you process a credit card payment anywhere you are, right on your smartphone!

You better believe it that thieves know how this stuff works.

According to recent articles, using nothing more than the same tools a payment processor uses, thieves could potentially make a tool to scan your card in the time it takes them to walk past you on the street!

Even an ordinary laptop can utilize radio waves to copy and clone cards - that's a scary thought!

Do YOU know what kind of information your credit card has stored in it?

But guess what?

Protecting yourself is just as easy!

This RFID-resistant credit card holder encases your cards and prevents anyone from just walking by and causing you to be a victim of "wireless identity theft" (look it up, it's real!)

Tough and portable, these security wallets shield your contactless cards from all sorts of unsavory scanning.

Basically, if your cards are in here, you're not the "easy target" anymore. Now you're protected!

And this isn't just for one or two cards, either!

THIS HAS 8 SLEEVES!

That should be more than enough for anyone's important cards! Credit cards, IDs, debit cards, anything!

Put them in here and you won't have to worry at all!

Whatever color you get, it'll look great! Just check 'em out!

And honestly, it's just a great way to protect your cards, too!

If you've ever had a credit card break or get damaged, you know why that's important! You're stuck having to call and inform them to cancel it, that you need a replacement, and then you have to wait WEEKS just to get the new card!

Some of us rely on those debit cards so we don't have to walk around with all our cash 24/7!

Protects Your Money Before You Use It!

Seeing as it's only $4.97 with FREE US shipping on any order over $5... you're already protecting your money!

That's one dirt-cheap way to prevent identity theft!
