Wake Up to a New Alarm Clock
Alarm Clocks
Unlike most consumer products, alarm clocks don't break very often! Since they don't break, we don't need to replace them very often but they're an important part of most people's lives. How else would you make it to work on time every day?
Once in awhile, even though you don't think you need a new alarm clock because yours still works, you'll be quite surprised at how nice it is to have a new modern one! Alarm clocks have come a long way towards effectiveness and uniqueness. You'll find lots of fun new features, even a clock that you have to get out of bed to catch when the alarm goes off.
Alarm Clocks Set the Mood for the Day
Alarm clocks do a lot more than wake you up in the morning. They set the stage for your entire day.
Wake up to an annoying blast and there's a chance you might be grumpy for the rest of the day. Wake up too gently after staying up too late and you might not be snapped into the day properly, going through the day in a sleepy haze.
Make your day better and brighter by buying yourself the right alarm clock to start your day.
Remember, just because it's useful doesn't mean it has to be boring.
Homedics makes really nice alarm clocks with everything you need and more
After doing research, I found this Homedics SS-5010 Soundspa Premier Am/Fm Clock Radio. It's a clock that I would be happy to own.
Here's all the features: This clock has an indoor/outdoor temperature reading with a remote sensor, an AM/FM clock radio, a projector that shows the time and temperature on the ceiling, and a dual alarm feature, something I need! It also features 6 nature sounds – waterfall, rainforest, rain, thunder, summer night and ocean sounds. It's everything you need to wake up right!

An iPhone Alarm Clock
The iPhone is my favorite alarm clock
I use my iPhone to wake me up every day. I don't even have a special app, I just use the one that comes standard with the phone. You can set as many alarms as you want and there's snooze on each of those. I think mine go off about 5 times before I get up but they always work.
There's one thing that you have to be careful about and that's the volume on the phone. Sometimes I turn my volume down and then forget to turn it back up. Then when the alarm goes off in the morning, it's really quiet and I don't hear it. It's happened to me a couple of times so thank goodness that my internal clock works and I don't usually over sleep. The alarm will still ring out loud even if it's on vibrate but the volume still needs to be turned up.
Another cool feature is that you can set the alarms to go off on certain days, like week days or weekends, or every Monday or every other day. You really don't need another alarm clock with all those options available.
My Next Favorite Kind of Alarm Clock
Alarm clocks that make it impossible to ignore them
One of the best ways to get yourself up is to make it hard to hit the snooze button on your alarm clock and a lot of these alarm clocks do just that! Some hide and some run away. The harder it is to turn them off, the better.

This is one of the most humorous and clever ideas I’ve seen so far. When the alarm on this clock goes off, a helicopter flies into the air, carrying the key to turn off the alarm.

Make Sure Your Kids Get Enough Sleep
It's great to find an alarm clock to wake your kids up but the best alarm clock for them is their natural body clock. Without enough sleep, kids can get hyperactive displaying symptoms of ADHD, lose the ability to concentrate, and become obese. It's important for them to get enough sleep and then they will wake up without the help of an annoying alarm clock.

Bed Shakers?
A vibrating disc wakes you up along with the alarm going off. You slip it under the mattress and then the bed shakes until you turn off the alarm. This is for the really deep sleepers that have a terrible time waking up.
Use Two Alarm Clocks or One with Dual Alarms
Sometimes I just can't get up in the morning so I always make sure to have at least 2 alarms set... just in case. Most of the time I hit snooze through the first one but the second one is the one that actually gets me up in the morning. It can be really hit or miss on whether one will wake me up or not.
