Stay Puft Caffeinated Gourmet Marshmallows – Yum
For years, I always thought the Stay Puft Marshmallows brand was real. Ever since watching Ghostbusters as a child, I never thought once to question whether or not it was a real brand.

The Smart Shopper: “Batman: Under the Red Hood” for $19.99
I just finished watching Batman: Under the Red Hood last night and I found it to be quite good. It is a more adult oriented Batman than say Batman: The Brave and the Bold.

Netflix for PlayStation 3 Gets Handy Search Function
It looks like the PlayStation 3 version of Netflix has a new feature that I’ve always considered missing on all versions of Netflix on any console – the search option.
