Back Up Your Phone's SIM Card for $5.55

Cheap-gear site Meritline has a USB SIM-card reader on sale for $5.55 with free shipping. The gizmo plugs into your PC and backs up the contents of your cell phone's SIM card, which contains, among other things, your phone book.

Making such a backup is a good idea in case your phone gets lost or stolen. After replacing it, you'd be able to copy your phone book from your PC to the new SIM card. What's more, the included software (Windows only) lets you view, edit, and delete entries, which could be easier than doing so on your phone.

The card reader normally sells for $10.55 (a great price already). To bring the price down to $5.55, enter coupon code mm1190825off at checkout. This code expires Sept. 30, so don't wait if you want to hop on this sweet little deal. Of course, if you own a compatible phone, you can also use Zyb to make an over-the-air backup.
