Walyou Deals Slices Prices Site-Wide for Black Friday

Posted: 27 Nov 2015 05:56 AM PST

KeySmart 2.0 Extended Version 01

What better way to celebrate Black Friday than to cut down the prices of extremely useful products that already are discounted? Our store, Walyou Deals, offers you a coupon that reduces the prices by an additional 15%, on Black Friday only!

Walyou Deals amasses into a single place some of the best gadgets and software bundles geeks could ever want, and that at a fraction of what these typically cost. Even though there are hundreds of appealing products on the website, there are a few that stick out due to their incredible functionality and value for money. One such product is the extended version of the KeySmart 2.0 key organizer.

Priced at $15.99 (typically $23), but available for $13.60 on this Black Friday with the coupon code listed below, KeySmart 2.0 Extended Version is an everyday carry device that does away with bulky key rings. Assuming that you need to open multiple doors each day, an organizer such as this one would seem not only a space saver, but also a time saver, as it would allow you to keep all the keys you need throughout the day in a particular order.

Unlike the original version, the extended one can accommodate most key sizes, included foreign ones. KeySmart 2.0 has a durable, yet light framework crafted out of aircraft aluminum, along with hardware milled from stainless steel, that can hold up to 10 keys (5 on each side), which is more than double what typical key rings can hold, while still maintaining complete functionality.

Obviously, car keys can’t be attached to the Keysmart 2.0 Extended Version key organizer, but the manufacturer provides a solution to that problem, as well. The gadget comes with a polished loop piece for attaching car keys, so you get to use your car while having all your other keys neatly organized.

Measuring 4.5″L x 0.6″W x 3.1″H and weighing 0.6 oz, KeySmart 2.0 Extended Version is a product that you’ll barely feel, let alone see, while you carry it in your jacket. While most people are looking to embellish their keyring with various colorful souvenir keychains, you’ll get to shock them all with this functional key organizer. On top of that, if you want to get even more functionality from a similar device, you can turn your attention to KeySmart 2.0 Titanium Key Organizer, which not only is more durable (being made out of titanium and such), but also includes a bottle opener which could come in handy many a times.

KeySmart 2.0 Extended Version is only available in black, but that’s a color that goes well with anything else, so there shouldn’t be any complaints in that department. At Walyou Deals, the item benefits from free shipping to addresses found in continental U.S.

To get the extra discount of 15% at Walyou Deals, you need to apply the coupon code BLACKFRIDAY during the checkout procedure. The offer is only valid today, so you should hurry to grab the gadgets or software bundles that interest you.

Raspberry Pi Launches Zero, the $5 Computer

Posted: 26 Nov 2015 12:45 PM PST

Raspberry Pi Zero $5 Computer 01

One cannot help but wonder how much lower can computer prices get. While all models of Raspberry Pi are instantly checked off the list of gamers and video editors, programmers may find them very interesting, particularly if they are just getting into coding. Raspberry Pi Zero represents an even more appealing option in this sense, since it only costs $5.

Raspberry Pi computers are meant to be used in schools and developing countries for teaching programming. Given their dimensions and components, it’s understandable that these don’t offer crazy performance, but for programming it’s more than enough. Needless to say, since the first Raspberry Pi was launched, people have found various uses for it.

The above image is a great way of advertising the newly launched Raspberry Pi Zero, as the $5 banknote reflects the price of the device, and it’s also used for size comparison.

“Of all the things we do at Raspberry Pi, driving down the cost of computer hardware remains one of the most important. Even in the developed world, a programmable computer is a luxury item for a lot of people, and every extra dollar that we ask someone to spend decreases the chance that they’ll choose to get involved,” stated Eben Upton, the founder of the Raspberry Pi Foundation, in a post on the company’s official blog. Might as well check out that post for a complete list of components, and a short assesment of Raspberry Pi Zero’s capabilities.

As Upton explained, even though the previous models were cheap, not everybody could have access to them: “The original Raspberry Pi Model B and its successors put a programmable computer within reach of anyone with $20-35 to spend. Since 2012, millions of people have used a Raspberry Pi to get their first experience of programming, but we still meet people for whom cost remains a barrier to entry. At the start of this year, we began work on an even cheaper Raspberry Pi to help these people take the plunge.”

Raspberry Pi will offer Pi Zero for free on the cover of their own magazine, as Upton revealed: “One more thing: because the only thing better than a $5 computer is a free computer, we are giving away a free Raspberry Pi Zero on the front of each copy of the December issue of The MagPi, which arrives in UK stores today. Russell, Rob and the team have been killing themselves putting this together, and we’re very pleased with how it’s turned out. The issue is jam-packed with everything you need to know about Zero, including a heap of project ideas, and an interview with Mike Stimson, who designed the board.”

Unfortunately, the magazine is out of stock on the company’s newly revamped Swag Store, and just in case you can’t buy it yourself, you’ll have to wait until Raspberry Pi Zero makes it to the shelves of retailers. Until then, you can check Amazon for various Raspberry Pi kits and parts.

Save an Extra 15% on VPN Services at Walyou Deals

Posted: 26 Nov 2015 12:08 PM PST

PureVPN VNP Service Walyou Deals

Today only, Walyou Deals offers an additional 15% off on all the VPN services sold, with a special coupon code.

Geoblocking or geolocking is the practice of blocking content accessible on the Internet if the user is not part of a company’s demographic, or if a certain country’s copyright laws prevent that particular content from being accessed. VPNs (virtual private networks) can go around this problem and make it look like you’re accessing the content from the right region, regardless if you’re using a computer or a mobile device. The VPN services sold by Walyou Deals are already discounted, but with a coupon code that’s valid today only, you can lower those prices even more, by an extra 15%. Two of the services that are definitely looking into are PureVPN and Getflix, and while each of them focuses on different types of content, they ultimately achieve the same goal, of unlocking the Web for people from all over the world.

As its name suggests, Getflix focuses on providing access to video streaming services that don’t typically work outside of the US. Some of these services include Netflix and Hulu, but Getflix is actually able to unblock more than 100 streaming channels so that you can get unlimited entertainment options. Have these names piqued your interest, yet? If so, learn that a lifetime subscription to Smart DNS Proxy’s service includes access to more than 50 VPN nodes, so that you can always get the best network performance.

Online radio, TV, sports and movie channels that you previously couldn’t access simply because you were in the wrong country, are now available to you thanks to Getflix, and all that under 256-bit SSL encryption. A lifetime subscription to Getflix is $39, 88% off the original price ($330), but today you can get it for $33.15 using the coupon code found at the end of this post.

PureVPN, which also comes with a lifetime subscription, allows you to connect to blocked content with up to 5 devices simultaneously. Assuming that you own a Wi-Fi router that allows you to add VPN settings to the network connection, you could do that so that all the devices that connect wirelessly to your network act as a single one. Besides that, you can use any type of device running Windows, Mac, iOS, Android or Linux, along with Smart TVs and gaming consoles.

The service relies on 550+ servers from 141 countries to give you access to previously unaccessible websites and streaming services. As in the case of Getflix, all traffic is encrypted, so you don’t have to worry about others checking out your streaming history. On Walyou Deals, PureVPN costs $69, 88% off the original price of $597, and today you can buy it for $58.65 using the below coupon.

To see which VPN services you can get besides Getflix and PureVPN, go to Walyou Deals, and apply the coupon code VPN15 to benefit from the additional discount.
