Fast Lane Super Slicks Mini Cooper S $20, www1.toysrus.com/superslicks
Before I put a down payment on a Mini Cooper, I thought I'd test drive this mini Mini - a remote control 1:43-scale version of the compact coupe. With just three AAAs and one 9-volt, I can cruise it around my apartment, reenacting scenes from The Italian Job. - Lauren Winfield
La Pavoni EN Europiccola $728, www.lapavoni.com
Espresso good. Starbucks bad. There's the indie coffee shop up the hill, but it's up the hill. La Pavoni's EN Europiccola ain't cheap, but it's Italian, and solid steel with chromed brass. I tried eBay. Bid. Lost. Bid up to $375 and scored! The espresso's delicious, and I'm saving a ton on tips. - Jeffrey M. O'Brien
HP Deskjet 5850 Color Inkjet Printer $250, www.hp.com
For months I researched network printers and wireless routers, hoping to build my own Wi-Fi print setup. But at $500-plus for everything, even the DIYer in me balked. Then I found HP's 5850, a document-churning, photo-printing inkjet with 802.11b built-in. It now works away happily in my closet. - Thomas Goetz
