BEST STARTER POINT-AND-SHOOT
The gum pack–sized Canon SD1300 is perfect for teenagers to slip into their backpacks. Of better quality than a phone camera, it has a sizable (almost 7 cm) LCD viewer, a 28 mm-equivalent wide-angle lens and an auto mode that beats competitors at adjusting for the environment. Plus, it comes in a girly blue. $200. Henry’s, 119 Church St., 416-868-0872.



Stop paying for cable or satellite: Hook up an antenna to your digital TV. If your old pole-mounted potato masher’s long gone, a Winegard SS-3000 indoor antenna is $60 on amazon.ca. You’ll get major Canadian and U.S. networks for free in high def.
