Travel Surge Protector

If you have a friend or loved one who travels a lot, getting them a travel surge protector is a cheap, yet thoughtful and useful gift.

For instance, this Accell surge protector is $20 and turns one outlet plug into three outlet plugs plus two USB ports, so if you're at the airport and low on outlets, this thing can be a real life saver.

It's not the prettiest gift and won't make the recipient say "oooh" and "ahhh", but it's really useful.
