Mike's Deal of the Day - Jan 18th 2023

Hey everyone! This is a simple deal that not everyone will want, but I figured I would post it.

At our lake house, the power can go out from time to time. It is pretty rural so you just never know. We have a bunch of these little lanterns situated around the house on night stands and tables. There are maybe 6 of them.

They are pretty cheap, easy to use and seem to last forever. I still have a couple of the original ones I bought 5 years ago. Yes they do walk off from time to time. We have lost about 4 of them in the last 5 years so it isn't a big deal. People can use them when the power goes out, when they want to walk the trail in the dark, go down to the waters edge etc etc. It is a cheap little amenity to provide that guest really appreciate.

$4.49 each right now.

As usually, I make nothing off these posts. This is an @Alicia Marks approved post!

Thanks all! Yes the do need batteries. The LED's are pretty efficient at least.

Another thing that is nice is that the AA batteries they use can be used in a pinch for TV remotes and the like. That way I don't leave batteries for folks to take.
