Sure they\u2019re available during other times of the year, but they often get pushed to the back of the shelf, left until they almost expire and forced to spend their final days in the lone shopping cart full of random items, hoping that someone ignores their red clearance sticker and takes them home to love them as much as the full priced chocolate.<\/p>\n<p>But on Halloween, fun sized candy bars become quite the hot commodity. Kids dress up as pirates and ninjas, and risk interacting with their creepy neighbor whose house always smells like soup just in hopes of getting that tiny Milky Way. Such is the power of the fun size candy bar.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->And as Halloween approaches, we should let the fun size candy bar serve as a reminder that many good things come in small packages. Seriously, without fun size candy bars, how could we be in denial about how much chocolate was <i>actually<\/i> eaten? (What!? 17 small Snickers barely counts!). <strong>But another great thing that comes in a small package?<\/strong> Our <a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/shop\/ministack_max\">NewerTech miniStack MAX<\/a>! And while no one will be giving away a miniStack MAX as a Halloween treat (unless perhaps you live in Warren Buffett\u2019s neighborhood), you should consider checking out this amazing four-in-one solution!<\/p>\n<p>The miniStack MAX\u00a0is a storage, data access, and connectivity solution that is so sleek even <i>it<\/i> can\u2019t stop looking at itself. (What? It\u2019s four things in one; you didn\u2019t expect it to be modest too.) It was designed to match the footprint of the Mac mini, so it stacks neatly on a desk without taking up any extra room. And much like that chocolate covered pretzel you\u2019re gnawing on, it fulfills many needs at once (salty <i>and<\/i> sweet!? No way!). Not only is it a high capacity hard drive, <strong>but<\/strong> <strong>it also serves as a Blu-ray\/CD\/DVD optical drive, SD card reader and USB powered hub<\/strong>. It perfectly complements any Mac or PC, and offers fully bootable data storage\/backup along with three USB ports for powering and charging external devices. The integrated SD card reader makes transferring photos and video from digital cameras so easy, your mom will be able to upload all 617 of those family reunion photos to Facebook and tag you in each of them!<\/p>\n<p>And much like the massive selection of Halloween fun size candies, the miniStack MAX comes in a variety of storage options so you can find the one that perfectly suits your needs. And because the miniStack MAX is so compact and lightweight, you can take it with you wherever you go. Just don\u2019t throw it in your Trick or Treat bag \u2013 it has more respect for itself than to sit next to those off-brand Smarties from the dollar store or that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dumdumpops.com\/flavor-faqs#q9\">buttered popcorn flavored Dum Dum<\/a>\u2026<strong>that\u2019ll be the last time you visit that brown house on the corner for Halloween\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let\u2019s be honest \u2013 everyone knows that Halloween is the fun size candy bar\u2019s time to shine.
