Memorial Day Deals: 40+ Sales From Apple, Sonos, Nintendo and More

If you’ve never seen one of these odd-looking cones with two flappy tails before, and you like food, I’m about to blow not only your mind but the minds of every fly within 500ft of your next party. 

Fly fans do exactly one thing, and they do it very well. You turn them on, and they gently spin. The thin little tails on either side rotate and sort of wiggle into that rotation if there’s a breeze, and that’s about it. But when you have a couple of these next to plates of food at your next party, you will immediately notice the fly population has decreased dramatically. That’s because flies are small, and from their perspective these are giant whirling blades of torment. Instead of landing on a platter of burgers fresh off the grill, the flies instead seek out the nearest food source that isn’t surrounded by endlessly spinning sentries. 

This 4-pack of fly fans is $26 today, which you will immediately discover is well worth it. They also collapse down for better storage when not in use and recharge pretty quickly. I don’t host gatherings without these anymore, and you probably won’t either.
