Huge Under $5 Sale - You'll Love it!

WorldStart's Tech Tips WorldStart

ws - 2014-01-09




Bad Weather, Bad Drivers, Bad Luck...

It Doesn't Matter What It Is...

But You NEED To Be Prepared!

THIS TOOL MIGHT SAVE YOUR LIFE!

The 3-in-1 Emergency Hammer That Should Be In EVERY Car!

Bust Through a Jammed Window Effortlessly!

Cut Off That Tangled Seat Belt Safely!

Only $4.97 To Keep You Safe!

Never Get Trapped In Your Car! Period!

Cars Accidents Happen EVERY Day!

In fact, the statistics say that serious injury from car accidents happens about once every 10 seconds.

The unfortunate truth is it doesn't matter how well YOU drive, if the OTHER people on the road are driving like idiots!

I'm not tryin' to scare ya... I just want EVERYONE to be prepared & safe!

I saw one of these things in action and I gotta tell ya, I got one for EVERYONE in my family.

They're these handy little 3-in-1 emergency hammers and if I need to use one just ONCE in my life, I know it'll have been worth the purchase!

Think About This:

You or a car you see gets broad-sided on the road. The doors are jammed shut, the window motors smashed, the seatbelts are caught.

The driver or passengers are trapped and they NEED to get out. What do you do?

You grab this tool and in SECONDS, the windows can be smashed out and the seatbelts cut free.

When seconds matter, this can be the difference between getting out unscathed or suffering a serious injury... or worse!

That window breaker tip is INCREDIBLE!

(Don't test it on your window, not even a tap, it means BUSINESS!)

They're specially designed to to focus ALL the momentum of a hit right into a tiny point on the glass. After all, if you've had something SMACK into any of your windows, you know those things are resilient!

You need something SPECIAL to bust it open and that's what this is!

Seat Belts - They're DESIGNED To Hold You In Place!

After all, in 99% of cases, that's what we WANT them to do.

But if you're in a burning or sinking car (hopefully never!) you need to make sure sure they can let you GO!

They're not gonna just pull apart. Those things are STRONG!

And a regular knife might be just as dangerous if you're struggling to cut through.

This has an ultra-safe "slotted" blade that you can just slide over the belt and pull!

It'll cleanly cut through the seatbelt and let you get out IMMEDIATELY!

Bottom line: this is the tool you're going to want when things go wrong.

You CANNOT predict an emergency situation. You can't PREVENT another driver from driving stupidly.

But you CAN be prepared for anything. You might NEVER need to use this, and I hope that's the case. But if you DO need it, you're gonna be glad you had it.

AND IT'S ONLY $4.97!!! Your well-being is worth WAY more than that!

Any order over $5 even means you get FREE shipping in the US!

http://store.worldstart.com/product/9219

PS - The sale will end quickly though, and these go up to Friday!! Safety is worth any price, but don't pay more if you don't have to!




Tired Of All That Dust?

Sick Of Using Dusters That Just Spread Dust Around?

This Gets It ALL...

It's Great For TVs But It Works On Any Surface!

Static Free Microfiber Won't Scratch Delicate Surfaces!

Screens, Counters, Cabinets, Bookcases, ANYTHING!

You could spend hundreds of dollars a year on expensive wipes that end up in the trash. But they could leave PERMANENT Scratches on your delicate furniture or electronics!

Once You Microfiber It, You'll NEVER Go Back to Regular Wipes!

Do you own a TV? A computer? A laptop? A smartphone or tablet?

How about tables, shelves, or any kinda furniture at all?

Expensive electronics have expensive screens! And you know what happens when those screens get scratched? You're STUCK with the scratch FOREVER!

Regular cloths and wipes are NOT designed for that kind of stuff! And when you're talking about a big expensive HDTV - you do NOT want to risk permanent damage!

Oh, and if you're thinking paper towels - say it ain't so! Those things are a one-way street to Scratchville!

YOU NEED THIS MICROFIBER DUSTER

It's soft enough for ANY surface!

There's no material out there that can beat a microfiber cloth when it comes to getting the CRUD off your stuff without even the RISK of damage!

NO SCRATCHES! NO SCRAPES!

AND NO NASTY CHEMICALS!

It won't leave any greasy, streaky residue!

USE IT ONCE AND YOU'LL SEE: MICROFIBER IS THE BEST! Hands down!

Forget old-fashioned dusters that just spread dust around the room!

The easiest way to make sure your stuff stays clean is to take the WORK outta keeping it that way - and that's JUST what this bad boy does!

Again - It Works For EVERYTHING!

Yeah, microfiber is the #1 go-to material when it comes to cleaning screens on your TV, monitor, tablet, phone, etc...

BUT THIS THING IS FOR YOUR WHOLE HOME!

Cabinets, shelves, tables, chairs - anything you'd dust or wipe down! Microfiber strands are designed to be safe for practically any surface!

Plus the handle is designed for hanging, so storage is summer easy!

The only thing that could make this deal sweeter is a killer price like...

$4.97 with FREE US SHIPPING on any order over $5!

Wait, it IS that price? YES!!!!!

You aren't dreaming! Grab yours at the link below!

PS - Don't let Friday roll around before you order it - that's when the sale ends and these run all the way up to Friday




What Good Is a Light You Can't Turn On In The Dark?!

Switches? Strings? You KINDA Know Where To Look...

But Actually Getting Them?

GOOD LUCK!

You Need a Light You Can Just TAP To Turn On!

And We've Got The Coolest Little One You'll EVER See!

Super Bright Mushroom Touch Lamps!

All You Gotta Do Is Tap The Top!

Banged Knees And Bad Words...

Aren't you tired of it?

You come home, you struggle to find the switch for the nearest light... and right into the table goes your knee.

That's USUALLY followed by some "choice words" that'd leave anyone else's jaw-dropped and eyes wide.

You aren't alone! The entire idea is ridiculous!

Think about it: You need light to see. You need to SEE switches or strings to turn your light on. There's a HUGE disconnect on the logic here!

THESE MUSHROOM LAMPS ARE WAY TOO EASY TO USE!

Walk into a room, stick your hand out in the general area, and flick your wrist!

All it takes is a tap to get more than enough light to do anything!

A Tap Lamp For ANY Space!

These lamps with their portable size and fun design can literally fit in ANYWHERE you want! I've got one for a desk lamp, but sometimes I move it to the kitchen to make some midnight snacks if I don't want to light up my entire home!

You'll find having a little lamp that you can move around saves you a LOT of stress!

That spot in your house that NEVER gets the right lighting? The desk where you keep having to twist and pull the lamp cord to get light actually where you're working?

Yeah, you can solve all that with this little lamp!

NO CORDS OR WIRES!

It's portable battery power for this little guy! YES!!!

That means you can even take these on the go! They make GREAT options for travel!

Could This Deal GET ANY BETTER?!

Of course it can - this is WorldStart after all!

These bad boys are only $4.97!! And what's more - if your order is over $5, you get FREE US SHIPPING! Grab two or three of these... you're gonna LOVE 'em!

http://store.worldstart.com/product/8396

Sale ends Friday and these go back to $8.97 !!




Tired of That Old, Bulky Lamp on Your Desk?

WHAT AN EYESORE!


GO AHEAD - PITCH IT!

The Powerful Flex-Neck USB Light Is Here!

Super Bright LED Power - Adjustable Flex Neck

IT'S USB POWERED - JUST PLUG IT INTO YOUR COMPUTER!

It's Time to Free Up VALUABLE Real Estate!

Your desk is your personal space. It's a little second home, and you should feel comfortable sitting there, right?

It's impossible to do ANYTHING with a cluttered desk!

It sure would look and feel a TON more comfortable if you could ditch that bulky old lamp, huh? Only problem is, it'd be impossible to see your keyboard! You don't have super-vision, right? So what's the solution here?

A USB Powered LED Flex-Neck Notebook Light!

Not only will this little thing clear up MASSIVE amounts of desk space - it's unbelievably bright! That's not to say it's a distraction, of course. Once it's hooked up, the flexible neck allows you to adjust it to YOUR liking! So go ahead, give that keyboard FULL illumination!


Stick it in the USB Port...AND IT'S ON!

Yep, no switches, no knobs...all you do is attach the USB end to your computer's USB port and you're all set! When you're done using it, just unplug it. It's simple to use, effective and UNBELIEVABLY POWERFUL!

LED POWER: Super Bright - Super Efficient!

Not only are you now saving a ton of space while making it WAY easier to see than you can with a weak bulbed lamp - you're not using ANY external power. What's that mean? It means that while improving your work space...YOU'RE ALSO SAVING MONEY! You'll notice your electric bill going down considerably...

Also, LED bulbs have an 11 year STRAIGHT shelf life! That means that you can leave this light plugged in and "ON" for 11 straight years...and the bulb will still be alive and working just as bright as the day you got it!

The PERFECT Size: ZERO Bulk!

As you can see, this light isn't at all bulky or invasive. It's only about as wide as a cord! But the perfect length allows you to fully adjust it to whatever height you like, and at ANY angle!

NO BULK, NO MESS - JUST PURE LED POWER!


You know what that means, right? It means that you can travel with it EASILY - it won't take up any room in a book bag or a briefcase...and it'll take up even less room on your desk!

STUNNING ONE DAY ONLY PRICE!

The choice is yours: you can go to your local box store and drop 25 bucks on one of these...or you can get it here for just
$3.97! And any order over $5 gets free shipping in the US! That's an amazing deal!

http://store.worldstart.com/product/8315

PS - If you wait until Friday the price will go back to $8.97... assuming there's ANY left!
