This thing has been pretty useful, since the nearby Barnes &amp; Noble cafe doesn&#x27;t have any electrical outlets within reach. This really extends my ability to sit and work for long periods of time.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;Energizer-XP18000-Universal-External-Netbooks&#x2F;dp&#x2F;B002K8M9HC" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.amazon.com&#x2F;Energizer-XP18000-Universal-External-...</a>

May sound silly, but during Old Navy&#x27;s 2016 end of season sale, I was able to get two pairs of slim, khaki pants; one pair burgundy&#x2F;maroon and the other tan. Since the colors are polar opposites, I&#x27;ve literally had pants to go with anything for any occasion.<p>The best part; I paid only $7 per pair.
