Is a Litter Robot Worth It? An Honest Review

Is Litter Robot Worth The Price? An Honest Review 

My children had been asking for a pet for years, and I always said no. 

My usual excuses were:
  • "We don't have time to take care of an animal."
  • "We don't have the money."
  • and finally..."The poop. Think of the poop, children."
And round about the conversation would go. One day I caved because they wrote a song on the piano about how they wanted a cat. Being a sucker for musicals (and my kids), I said fine. 

A few weeks later, I brought home Honey the Cat after a visit to the humane society. Here she is, posed among Barbie toys:

Yeah, she is cute. Its true. I was smitten for this kitten.

But what I was NOT smitten over was the standard litterbox. We kept the litterbox in our basement, but after a few days of walking into our home and being greeted by the ripe smell of cat waste, I decided we needed another solution. On top of that, we are a busy family and I don't have time to be scooping poop every day.

And lo and behold I discovered the Litter Robot: a self-cleaning litter box with a rotating drum that drops the waste into a bag-lined drawer. "Great!" I thought. Problem solved. 

Until I saw the price, and I swallowed hard. $699? Wowsers, that could save a lot of cats from the humane society. 

However, Litter Robot sells REFURBISHED units with a nice discount that are also under a one year warranty. I discovered an older model for $450. That's still a lot of cheddar, but remember: the smell. I pushed go on the order. 

In short, this thing is amazing and let me tell you why.

Audible by Amazon Audiobook Subscription: Is It Worth It? An Honest Review

Audible by Amazon Audiobook Subscription: Is It Worth It? An Honest Review

 Like many Americans, I spend a lot of time in the car. The average American commutes 28 minutes each day. That's me! I listen to podcasts on my Apple Airpods (which I love) but after I while I need something that has longer content for my drive time because I don't want to be fumbling with my phone after a short podcast episode has been completed.

Well, fumble no longer! I recently stumbled across the Audible audio book content produced by Amazon. Wow! I love to read, but don't always have time to do so during the day, and audiobooks are a great fit for me with my busy lifestyle. I've even started listening to audiobooks while I exercise, go on walks or mow the lawn.

Some of the pros to Audible are the low monthly cost ($15), ease of use and ability to download multiple books each month. I often have more credits than I use each month, and so they store up rather quickly. Overall its a good deal for the volume of material you get to access from literally thousands of titles.


If you've never considered trying out Audible, click this link to learn more. Its only a few dollars a month and you can choose from thousands of titles. Some of the "classic" books are free, too! 

Amazon is currently offering two FREE audiobooks when you sign up for a free trial with Audible. I took advantage of that deal as well. Pretty sweet! 

I've been listening to the Bible read by James Earl Jones, and it is phenomenal. I was worried I would get Darth Vader vibes but thankfully I don't! In a voice as rich as it is familiar, James Earl Jones lends his narrative talents to the King James Version of the New Testament. In over 19 hours on 12 digitally remastered cassettes or 16 CDs enhanced with a complete musical score, James Earl Jones reads The Bible interprets the most enduring book of our time utilizing the acclaimed actor's superb storytelling and skilled characterizations. Its over 19 hours and costs only one credit! Talk about filling up my drive time with some quality content.

Audible by Amazon is a great deal and perhaps like you, I was skeptical before signing up for a free trial. Now I can't imagine my daily commute without it.

TESLA Cyber Truck Test Drive - Tesla Test Drive - Cybertruck Price - Cybertruck Delivery - Cyber Truck test drive - Elon Musk


 The closest some of us may ever get to affording the price (or stock) of a Tesla Cybertruck test drive is the Hot Wheels Tesla Cybertruck RC car. Its a rechargeable battery powered toy car that, in true Tesla Cybertruck fashion, has serious torque. Check it out as we take the Tesla Cybertruck test drive around a Hot Wheels test track course, put it through its paces and see what she's made of.

With Tesla Cybertruck production delayed yet again, I thought "what is the closest thing to owning a Cybertruck?" and I found this Hot Wheels car that is super fun to drive! My kids loved playing with it and doing stunts with it. I was impressed with its speed and battery life as well.
