I’m Lovin’ It – iGo Charge Anywhere
This post may contain Amazon or other affiliate links. As an Amazon associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
So this week, I have a combo of things I’m loving! And I have one of them to giveaway to one lucky reader….so read on….
I’m loving my new purse I got while visiting Branson and the Coach Factory store. I was sold, the minute I saw the color.
Next up……my new iPhone 4! How did I ever live with out an iPhone? lol I knew I would love it, but I didn’t know how MUCH I’d love it. I’m able to stay connected and get work done when I’m away from home.
Some of my favorite apps right now (aside from facebook, skype and Hootsuite ):
- Dragon Dictation – Thanks to Kristen for reminding about this gem! You can speak/voice record text messages, Facebook status updates and tweets and Dragaon Dictation will type it out for you! OH SO COOL! and the best part…it’s FREE!
- Words with Friends – it’s like playing scrabble with your friends. (if you send me a request, I’m kind of slow at playing, so just know a game may last days and weeks with me lol)
- Camera+ – will make your iPhone camera work like a SLR. $1.99 well spent if you’re serious about your pictures.
- Instagram – makes mobile photography social. You can follow your friends, they can follow you and comment on your pictures. You can also instantly send to Facebook and Twitter at the same time.
My only “dislike” with my iPhone (as with many people) – is the auto correct feature when typing. It seems to be more of a hindrance than helpful. I have a bit of advice on this topic………….
READ what’s typed before you hit send………..
because just when you *THINK* you typed and posted to Facebook a list of what you are doing like “SDC on Sunday” (meaning Silver Dollar City)…….
You may have typed…..
(click to read my comment after my status)
YES…………I REALLY did that!
and just so you know…..you can NOT delete on Facebook from your iPhone! Thank goodness my oldest daughter was home to remove it for me……after snapping a picture of the screen first! THANKS honey! lol
***UPDATE – I love my readers!!! I’ve since learned you CAN delete on FB from your phone!! for those who didn’t know, like me, you just swipe your finger across the message you want to delete and a red delete button will appear!!!! ~thanks to everyone who let me know about this!! #lifesaver
And last but not least………….my new favorite thing for both my iPhone AND my purse!
I’m in LOOOVE with my iGo Charge Anywhere!
iGo Charge Anywhere
from iGo.com
As with most cell phones, I think we all worry about running out of battery, and worse yet running out when you have no access to electricity or a car charger. In the summer time especially………we’ll run to the pool, and I realized my phone is almost out of battery, or spend the day at Six Flags or on vacation taking lots of pictures, tweeting and facebooking will run my battery down in no time.
The iGo Charge Anywhere is a portable charger that you can carry with you so you will never have a dead battery again! Charge plugged and unplugged! During use as a wall charger, the internal battery recharges and is ready to provide power to your gadgets when away from outlets. Charge on the go, at the beach, on a boat, in the air – charge anywhere! The Charge Anywhere comes with a 6 foot USB cable and you purchase the tips that fit each of your devices, so you don’t need a new charger even if you get a new phone, just order a new tip.
iGo Charge Anywhere features:
- Small enough to fit in a purse or pocket.
- 2 USB ports to simultaneously charge 2 devices
- Works with many devices including smart phones, bluetooth headsets, MP3 players, digital cameras, GPS devices and more
- 6 foot USB cable
- No need to buy new charger when upgrading devices
- Works worldwide (do not need a voltage converter)
- The iGo Charge Anywhere retails for $39.99 which includes 1 free tip when purchased online.
You can use the code Twitter10 and receive 10% all orders (no expiration)
This wall charger with an integrated battery provides peace of mind to deliver power anytime, anywhere! The iGo Charge Anywhere can provide up to three full charges to most mobile devices while away from an outlet before it needs to be replenished.

I would love one of these chargers! I never knew they existed! With 3 small children and always in the run, it would be SO handy!!!
And your auto correct problem made me laugh so hard!!
These are awesome! I have not heard of them but could definitely use one! I work 3 hours away and travel so I am obviously on the road…A LOT! PS your autocorrect problem is all too familiar!
I subscribed to TidyMom via e-mail! Awesome tips!
An iGo Charge Anywhere would be awesome to recharge my smart phone…it never has enough juice to make it through the day when my kids need quiet entertainment!
I would love to win this! We camp a lot during the summer, and having this would allow me to continue taking tons of pictures to share with family back home! Last weekend while camping I eventually just had to put my iphone away….talk about withdrawal!
I’m actually going to get an iphone this afternoon! This would be a rocking accessory to it! I’m sure I’ll be terrible at keeping it charged!!
That is SO funny!! I just got an iPhone about a week and a half ago, and it has already changed my life!! I would love the charger because I am so addicted and always running my battery down!
I totally LOL’d at that FB post – darn auto correct! 🙂 I would love to have one of these chargers for our long car trips – our phones are always dying on us! Thanks for the chance to win!

I would have loved this at Disneyworld a few weeks ago! So many pictures I missed taking because my phone died!

My husband has an iPhone and would love this charger! Awesome giveaway, too bad the purse isn’t included! I love the color, too. 😉
This is very cool! I haven’t even heard of this until now.
Love the charger — I definitely need this for my phone for travelling!
Also, just so you know… You can turn off that autocorrect feature, but I think you will get used to it and find it helpful. And you CAN delete posts from your facebook, just swipe to the left and a delete button will appear.
Thanks for the great giveaway!
Your RSS feed is in my reader!
OMG Cheryl I about Choked on my cereal…that is to freaking funny…lol… yep you learn really fast to double check your post i have an ipod touch after a few crazy post I realized yep gotta read what I write…lol… and the not being able to delete from it sucks… Lisa
I have an igo car charger and LOVE that I can just buy a tip when I get a new phone! I would love an igo charger of this sort, because really, who wouldn’t?? What a genius idea to be able to charge anywhere!! Yeah!!
I follow TM via RSS feed too!!
Wow these chargers sound wonderful and it’s about time someone came out with a device that is inter-changeable with the tips…love it! We travel ALOT and this would be perfect for my DH’s android phone. Thanks Cheryl!

I sooooo need this for my husband!!! He works from home some and he is constantly forgetting his charger either at work or at home (his charger is never where he is at). What a great invention…and giveaway!

This charger would come in handy! The film on the windows at work make my phone come in poorly and some times depletes my phone battery. I get stuck with a dead battery now and then because of this.
I linked up my red, white, and blue Italian Cookies today. Thanks for the giveaway and for hosting the Blog Hop! Have a great holiday weekend!
Between me (a busy mom) and my fiance (who’s a total flake on stuff like phone charging), I need one of these!
My battery always seems to be low. It would be great to charge it anytime.
I’m always really scared of my phone battery going dead in a place where I’m not able to charge it. This would be a big help!
Hi Cheryl. I brought Watermelon cookies to the party. Have a great 4th of July!
With 4 different cell phones in our home, I am constantly worried about getting them all charged and ready to go. What an awesome giveaway Cheryl!!

I have you in my Google reader but I think I’ll subscribe through e-mail too. I dont want to miss anything. 🙂
Oh my, I need this! I always forget to charge my phone when I am home during the day so when I am out and need to use it, it mocks me saying “20% battery left” “10% battery left”.

Would LOVE this! Between my 5 year old son playing on my phone all the time and my constant use, I usually don’t make it through a day without charging!

It’s the worst when you’ve not taken note of how low your battery is and then realize you left your charger at home. This would remedy that 🙂
I would love to win one of those chargers! I would use it when we got traveling.
