Have you been needing some new  cheap ear buds? I know that the ones I have with my iPhone (that are really expensive, BTW) break constantly and it can be pretty cumbersome and irritating to constantly purchase a pricey replacement. What essentially happens with the headphones is one of them just gives up with about a few weeks of use - so for a little while I will deal with it "as is" and then just buy a new set. Today I found this great little Meritline deal, however, that I think will help everyone out!

If you use coupon MLCK2547830902AL1 (Limit 800 Orders) you can get a black pair of "ear buds" for only $0.69 - with free shipping at Meritline. What a deal! I can spend like $15 (or more) on the ones I get directly from Apple and, just like the Apple ones, these can be used on any product with a 3.5mm headphone jack. These headphones have the following features: they are compatible with all audio devices with a standard 3.5mm headphones socket (even your laptop). Fits comfortably in your pocket, purse or backpack (very portable). The cable length is one metre and the earphone Plug is 3.5mm in diameter. This item is compatible with ALL iPod models and any other device with a 3.5mm headphone jack.

This would be a great backup if you already have a working pair, or could make a great gift for pretty much anyone you know because everyone has an MP3/MP4 player or something that has a 3.5mm diameter jack, right? Exactly - and at less than three quarters ($0.69) this is a deal that is too good to pass up! The reviews for these are pretty good as well and although these are a "generic" brand - who will know?

These ear buds even include a little carry case so you can always have them with you - without getting tangled and what not. I think these little deals are so great but it is worth mentioning (again) that because these items are shipped from China they can take some time to arrive - ussually about 2/3 weeks from the time of ordering. This is not a bad thing at all - in fact I love the little cheap surprises I get every couple of weeks from Meritline - but if you need these in a hurry this is likely not your best option - although I still think you should buy them anyway because the price is so good!
