I love my WeMo switches, but they're a little pricey, especially if you're going to be putting them all over your house. For a cheaper alternative, check out BUZZI, on sale for just $24 today.
The outlets themselves seem to be a bit bigger than WeMo switches, but the feature set is basically the same. You can control your outlets from your smartphone anywhere in the world, group them together, and create rules. But BUZZI adds a really creative wrinkle by packing in an IR blaster to control your TV. All you have to do is plug it into the unit and point it at your home theater, and you'll be able to control everything from your smartphone. Pretty clever! [ BUZZI Wireless WI-FI Smart Plug, $24]
