'Spacious' Ryanair cabin bag with 'surprising amount of storage' costs just £21
Avoid getting slapped with an extra charge at the airport by purchasing this spacious cabin bag. The arrival of summer brings with it holiday season. Anyone who is jetting off somewhere warm will know the benefits of choosing the right-sized luggage. This is especially true when travelling with budget airlines such as Ryanair who can be notoriously strict with its baggage rules. Although, the firm is said to be boosting them by 20 percent over the next few weeks. Until then, the current baggage policy allows for fliers to take on one bag measuring 40 x 20 x 25cm completely free of charge. Fortunately, we have spotted one on Amazon that meets those exact dimensions for under £22. The KLOSTAIN Ryanair Cabin Bag, which costs just £21.29 for the black colourway, has been designed to fit either underneath seat in front or in the overhead lockers when travelling on many airlines that also include easyJet, TUI and British Airways. The backpack-style cabin bag has been designed with convenience in mind, with the main compartment measuring a "spacious" 20L in total, with quite a few reviews saying it can fit an entire "week's worth of clothes" without a fuss. KLOSTAIN Ryanair Cabin Bag £21.29 Amazon Buy here Product Description There's a fixed buckle to ensure all the contents inside are kept and secure, alongside multiple separate compartments for a laptop and storage compartments for smaller essentials such as pens, notepads, passports and more. On the outside there are two mesh pockets that are perfect for storing a water bottle to keep hydrated on the go. The material itself is said to be waterproof, so travellers can be rest assured the valuables inside will not get damaged or wet during transport. It's also designed to be "comfortable" thanks to ventilated padding inside the adjustable straps, meaning there won't be any stress on the shoulders, while a chest buckle can keep it safe and secure when in a busy airport. For travellers who prefer a hard shell-style case, then Tesco's £49.99 Cabin Case, available in five colours, boasts the same dimensions, making it suitable for Ryanair. Another affordable option for smaller trips is this Linea Underseat Cabin Bag, also 40cm x 20cm x 25cm, that is available to buy for just £9.99, down from £19.99, from Sports Direct.

Meanwhile, the KLOSTAIN Ryanair Cabin Bag on Amazon has earned itself a 4.4 rating based on thousands of reviews that say it boasts "plenty of storage" for shorter trips and "fits perfectly under the seat." One five-star review read: "Lovely rucksack for travel. Spacious main compartment with elastic straps to keep clothing secure. On the outside are four straps that enable compression of the contents which helps meet the airline's strict size size criteria. "There is even a pocket for a battery pack with a built-in USB connection allowing you to top-up your phone while on the go. Numerous pockets assist with organising everything and the padded straps make for a comfortable carry. Nice bag I'm happy to recommend." Homewares deal of the week It's time to give the home a spring refresh and Dunelm has launched its massive sale.

Someone else praising the roomy interior said: "Good quality bag with surprising amount of storage. Great value." For anyone who travels with a laptop, it might be worth considering its size, as one shopper suggested: "It is a well made bag, but my laptop didn't fit inside the bag. It's designed for tablets on mini laptops." Someone who, despite having an issue, still left a five-star review writing: "To this day it's still my favourite bag. Due to manufacturing error one strap was missing but even so it's still amazing. Perfect for short trips, can pack a weeks worth of clothes inside and many spaces for little things and a power bank slot on the side for you to charge your phone."

Get Caffeinated at Dolores Park's Upcoming Fancy Coffee Bar
Andrew Barnett is a coffee roaster amongst coffee roasters. He's friends with icons, including George Howell, the man who sold the frappe, through his Coffee Connection, to Starbucks. Barnett's Linea Caffe opened in the Mission District in 2013, its blue and red facade part of the furniture between Valencia and Mission streets. Now he's taking Linea to new heights with his splashiest cafe yet. Just a stone's throw from Dolores Park, a new Linea cafe will open next door to Bi-Rite Creamery on 18th Street. This cafe takes over the former Nopalito window space at 3690 18th Street. Here, Linea will offer blended coffee drinks, delicate pour-over service, and a 'bean bar,' a throwback to the coffee bean scooping operations of original San Francisco businesses, including Polk Street's Freed, Teller & Freed. The hope is to open by late summer or early fall 2025. The 800-square-foot space is two-and-a-half times the size of the first Linea shop. Guests will be able to sit inside, unlike the first spot and the Potrero Hill warehouse, which has a parklet but no other seating. Designer Alan Sklansky, a local talent who worked on the Zuni Cafe redesign, will handle the buildout. There'll be Dynamo Donuts and Neighbor Bakehouse goods at this outpost, as there are at the first two Lineas. New offerings — including the company's newest espresso blend, A4 — will be available by pour-over and espresso only. 'I love pour-over coffee,' Barnett says. 'But I love espresso. I dream of espresso.' Linea's been busy elsewhere in the city, too. In late May, the company launched an espresso cart out of the Potrero Hill roasting facility. A handsome light wood cart takes over the big loading dock leading into the Mariposa Street warehouse. Pastries and bags of coffee line the cart. The cart will show up each Saturday and Sunday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Barnett says it has been a chance for his staff to try their hand at a more experiential, pop-up operation. Still, Barnett insists coffee roasting is Linea's number one priority. His business is a Benefit Corporation, or B Corp, which means the intent of the business and profits go toward social impact-focused causes. Barnett says this moment in the United States — riddled with anti-immigration sentiment and bizarre supply chain issues created by the new administration — is an incredibly difficult one for specialty coffee. Working with farmers and producers who grow organic, biodynamic coffees is his focus. 'We're a showcase for that,' Barnett says. 'Linea in Italian is line. We're a line connecting the coffee to the finished product.' Linea Caffe (3690 18th Street) will open in late summer or early fall 2025. See More: San Francisco Restaurant Openings

This dentist-directed teeth straightening treatment used by millions of shoppers is half the price of Invisalign
Confidence starts with your smile and achieving straight white teeth can be the key to increasing it. It's no secret that dentist appointments can be incredibly expensive, but one Aussie-owned brand is determined to provide shoppers with incredible results, for a much more affordable price tag. Meet Linea, the dental aligners brand, offering effective and safe solutions to straightening teeth. Used by millions of shoppers in the last 20 years, Linea is a dentist-directed treatment with involves partnering with licensed dentists all over Australia. Selling clear aligners directly to shoppers, you can score a happier smile than half the price of other aligner brands such as Invisalign. Kickstart your teeth alignment journey by taking the FREE 30-second online smile quiz to see how Linea can help you achieve your goals. Clear aligners have transformed the orthodontics landscape over the last two decades, used by millions worldwide to achieve straighter, healthier smiles. But the clear aligner market has long been split into two models: dentist-directed treatments and at-home kits. At-home brands surged in popularity during the pandemic due to their convenience, but they've since faced criticism — and even regulatory scrutiny for poor outcomes, medical risks, and lack of professional oversight. These kits typically rely on DIY impressions without scans, x-rays, or dental involvement, leading to unsafe or ineffective results. On the other end, dentist-directed brands like Invisalign provide a higher standard of care but come with a hefty price tag, thanks to a distribution model that passes costs down to the consumer. The result? Identical treatment plans quoted at wildly different prices, depending on which dentist you visit. Linea bridges this gap. Its hybrid business model offers direct-to-customer pricing while preserving the clinical oversight of licensed dentists. That means consistent, lower costs — without compromising on safety nor quality. Linea Co-Founder, Nicholas Van Leeuwen explains that Linea's unique business model is the reason the company has so many return customers. 'We cut the middleman out but retain a high level of dentist involvement. It's the best of both worlds. ' The Linea journey starts with a 30-second Smile Quiz to assess your suitability. From there, the experience is seamless, professional, and transparent. Firstly you receive a consultation and you're matched with one of Linea's partner dentists across Australia for a full assessment, including x-rays, 3D scans, and intraoral images. Then you're provided with a customised plan which is a tailored treatment created with Linea's dental team, and you'll preview your future smile through a 3D simulation Your dentist fits your aligners, performs any required procedures (like IPR or attachments), and monitors your progress. The Linea app provides 7-day support, reminders, photo uploads for monitoring, and direct access to Linea's clinical team. Post-Treatment which is included in your plan are medical-grade retainers and professional teeth whitening, to ensure your results last and your smile shines. 'I had an amazing experience, brilliant customer service every step of the way,' one person wrote. 'The results are beyond my expectations,' another shopper added.
