|  | Image/Orion/Kobal/Shutterstock | | 37 Years Later, An Infamous Sci-Fi Flop Just Got A Huge Upgrade | To the eyes of American businessmen, Steven Spielberg’s E.T. needed only one improvement: He didn’t endorse enough American products. Enter Mac, the curious, magical, whistling alien who’s separated from his strangely proportioned family on Earth and nursed back to strength with a combination of Skittles, Coca-Cola, and a trip to the liveliest McDonalds in America. A garish, capitalist rip-off of one of the biggest hits of the ‘80s, Mac and Me has remained an internet curio for over 35 years. Now, thanks to Vinegar Syndrome’s first-of-its-kind 4K upgrade, every disastrous detail of this premium and fascinating so-bad-it’s-good adventure is available in the highest quality yet. Read the full appreciation (of sorts) of Mac and Me here. | Buy Now |  |

| |  | | Royal Berkey Water Filter System | How’s your water quality? You should of course test it, but filtering it is good even if the levels of metals and bacteria are fine, you probably want to filter it anyway. Yes, a Brita pitcher in your fridge will do. But the Berkey water filtration system is your handsome upgrade with massive charcoal filters that leave you with water that is clean and tasty. It’s great for peace of mind for every day, but also a big leg up in an emergency. If the power goes out or you have potential contamination during a disaster, this holds more than 3 gallons, can filter 3,000 gallons before replacement is needed, and serve up to 200 people per day (but do the math and you’ll realize, only in an emergency). You can even install fluoride and arsenic reduction Filters can be installed in the lower chamber if desired. But if you do, make sure to brush your teeth extra well and maybe see the dentist regularly. | Buy Now |  |
