We Love Fridays: 10 Too Cool for School Gadgets

Posted by Alexandra C. | Friday September 7, 2012

I'll be honest. I am a little sad that I am not going back to school this year. Not because I'll be missing the tests, assignments and projects. Oh no, I am done with those, but what I am missing is back to school shopping. While I can still do a good fall fashion haul these days, what I don't get to do is buy all of my gadgets and supplies for the new school year.

I thought it would be fun to get a little nostalgic this Friday and come up with 10 back to school supplies that I would have loved to have while in school. Scratch that, I'd love to have them anytime. With ultra cool coffee makers, super sweet backpacks and adorable but useful notebooks, this is definitely the time to be a student!

1. Victoria Decomposition Notebook (C$8.00): I think this would be the perfect place to take down all those important notes.

2. Victoria's Secret Backpack (US$39.50): Show off some style with your backpack, no need to go for boring greys and blacks!

3. Clocky Alarm Clock (US$39.00): A rolling alarm clock that requires that you actually get up to turn it off? Genius.

4. Keurig Single Serve Coffee Maker (C$139.99): For all your late night study sessions.

5. LaCie Rugged USB Key (US$39.99): This USB key has ultra rough n' tumble packaging so it can withstand anything you take it through.

1. Straight Edge Laser Beam Scissors (US$14.00): An integrated laser beam in these scissors makes sure you always cut a straight line.

2. Genius Portable Scanner (ColorPage-SF600) (C$119.00, online only at Best Buy): Easily get down all the info you need from a library book or handout by scanning the page on the spot.

3. Cube Laser Virtual Keyboard for iPad & iPhone (US$179.99): When you need to quickly write up an assignment but you only have your phone or iPad on you, this device gives you a laser keyboard. Cool or what?

4. Monster Inspiration Over-Ear Noise Cancelling Headphones (C$299.99): Noisy roommates? Try these noise cancelling headphones.

5. Back To School Socks (US$7.99, on sale): Show off some school pride with some adorable school themed socks! My faves are the pencils.

Are you heading back to school this fall? Or maybe headed back to work or starting a new job? What would your back to school fave gadgets be?

I think that portable scanner thing is absolutely genius, I wonder how well it works? My favorite 'gadgets' I have are my mini fridge and also my iphone. Seriously, there are some lifesaver apps for college on the iphone, like the bus schedule app and the campus map just to name a few.
