Hmm, can't really justify paying $6 shipping for these, even though they are free. Don't need anymore small flash cards, but still a grand gesture by the royal court.

Chili and corn bread! Gotta love southern hole in the wall restaurants.

Shaggy, I think its time to buy your messengers new steeds to deliver mail throughout the kingdom!  How do I start this one ? Just coming back from my admin section. You know, if there is something that makes me even crazier then usual is my system bugging flingers, so I had to dig in. To make a long story short; Should I turn ON your "receive news" or will you be without the inside scoop forever  ? Let me know if you need any help, thank you for the feedback. Many thanks, but I could have sworn that was turned on before... hmmm, can I point the finger of blame at ChaosFling?  Seriously though, thanks a lot for responding, if you hadn't I probably would never have checked that!

Received this today, and although it was a little tricky to set up, the sound is really nice. There is a very very slight bit of "noise" that accompanies the signal, but it's easy to overlook--just turn the audio up more and you can't even hear it anymore. I took it out back to give it the real test, and it performed great, no signal loss. I haven't done a walk around the perimeter of the house yet, but I can't imagine that it wouldn't continue to work just as well. At $30 (and heck, probably even $35 if I hadn't had a coupon), this was a great buy! The sound is incredible for a low price wireless speaker, nice highs and it can even kick out a surprising amount of bass for something its size.  This isn't going to rival any Bose setup, but if you fling expecting something that good then you are probably going to be disappointed no matter what you get. This really will be a great toy for summer--perfect for gardening and even better for entertaining. I noticed you can use rechargeable batteries in it and recharge the unit by hooking it up to the wall adapter. That's a pretty nice little feature, but six (!) rechargeable D batteries might set you back a bit more than you want to spend. All in all, another satisfying fling. Thanks team thingfling!

The crystal things inside of them soak up the water and get all jelly-like. You can ring the extra water no problem. I had several of these over the years and they are pretty nice in the summer. They don't stay freezing cold, but they do hold in a nice cool feeling, kind of like when you first soak a rag in cold water.
Getting them in a big pack is nice, because the little crystals will only last so long (a year or so, if I remember correctly).

Mine is on it's way! Really impressed with the shipping time on this one, ordered on the 18th and shipped on the 21st (along with my Philip's headphones that I ordered on the 17th).

I've just ordered it.... They should change the name from ThingFling to CRACKFling... I have a reasonable idea of what it is and if I'm right - it's definitely a terrific deal...
Crap - how do I expain yet another box showing up...
The old "Oh I ordered that AGES ago" isn't working anymore. Spouse declared the "detente" we had over buying stuff was null and void because too many boxes have been showing up...
Any ideas on what excuse to use this time??? sweepstakes winner
