House of Marley Smile Neckband BT Earphones for $34

A 15% off green clip-on coupon at Amazon offers 15% off the current prices of the House of Marley Smile neckband earphones. The Denim color scheme has the lowest price of the four colors, going for $40 before coupon. The coupon drops it to $34. The clip-on coupon works only if Amazon actual is the seller. The earphones average 3.6 out of 5 based on 31 customer reviews.

Since the neckband category is ever-increasing in popularity with everyone from Sennheiser to Sony jumping in, I am creating a new blog category to track them here. So instead of having them under the In-Ears category, now they will go in their own Neckband Earphones 🙂

Most of this kind are wireless (a place to put the battery/hardware for bluetooth/ANC), but the category will include wired and anything else that has some kind of a neckband. I won’t go far back-edit all the older posts, so this category will grow over time. Also by calling them “earphones” I am side-stepping further classification complications such as in-ears, earbuds, bone construction, etc 🙂

Monoprice Sonic Solace ANC/BT Over-Ears for $50 + S&H

The 11.11 party is mostly over, so back to US-Landia offers. The Monoprice website is offering the new condition Monoprice Sonic Solace ANC/BT Over-Ears for $50 plus shipping in the brown/tan color scheme only.

Because they are on sale, they are not eligible for 15% off coupon code ACORN (for Sunday 11/12/17). However, it doesn’t hurt to try the coupons, because sometimes some of the sale items are also eligible for coupons. This is not the majority of the cases, but it happens enough times to be worth the chance.

PS: as of the time of writing their website appears to be loading slower than their usual slow. Mayhaps a Sunday morning hangover after their servers were partying last night 😉
