Bucky is going out on a limb, except it's gotta be a low one since he can't fly. He bought this tripod in the hopes that it will be a good switch mount. It should arrive today or tomorrow and he'll let you know the outcome. But for $5.24 he'll use it for his webcam if it doesn't work for his switches.
Holy Moley! Bucky found the Crayola Children's big keys keyboard at Costco for $21.00. But in further investigating check this out! Wal Mart is having a clearance and it is only $10.00!!! Woooo Hooo! The keys are very easy to depress and the mouse lights up.
Bucky was hoping to find this cheaper but he'll take it for $20.97. Discovery toys is having a sale on their Remote Control Art Ladybug. With this little bug children who cannot hold a crayon or marker can either use the hand held remote it comes with or can use the ECU capability on their AAC device to create a masterpiece. We'll let you know how it is after it arrives
Bucky got this bathtub grip for his grandparents last year. It worked great for their shower. If you have a clean smooth surface these grips suction on and are extremely sturdy and safe. Great for adults and children. How can you beat this price....$6.71...???
Bucky is on the lookout to make some one message communication devices. Here are some deals he's found. He likes this one because you touch the picture instead of a button.
