If you're rolling solo, it's likely that you won't need a gadget charging station that holds more than a few mobile gadgets that you use daily (i.e., your phone, iPod or MP3 player, and point-and-shoot camera), so why spend your hard earned money on something you don't need?
Instead, check out the eco friendly and geek chic Bamboo Charging Station that has been marked down from $46 to $30. Cool thing is, the station can live on your desk, or hang on your wall to maximize space and create a modern decorative feature on your wall, even when your gadgets aren't being juiced.

In case you haven't noticed, I have a thing for charging stations. I just can't get enough of 'em. Call it my OCD for cable management, or the fact that between my boyfriend and I combined, we have more gadgets than a small country, but I love a nice and neat desk where my gadgets can refresh and recharge.

Charging stations are becoming more and more ubiquitous — their advantage being the organization they provide. So why not apply the idea to a time when you really need to be organized — when you're on the road traveling?
Crate and Barrel has your travel gadget solution: its new Travel Charging Station ($30).

In a world of expensive charging stations, it's a relief that a geek on a budget can head to Ikea to pick up a simple $3 charging dock that will do the job it was meant to preform: hold your gadgets while they're juicing up. Additionally, for all you cable-hiding freaks out there (yours truly, included) Ikea also offers simple and cheap solutions for any cable management nightmare. All of these products are $10 or less, so I know you can scrounge up the scrilla to get organized.

I've managed to do it again — stumble across yet another charging station to add to my ever-expanding collection.
Except this time, this charging dock — a place your cell phone, iPod, and camera can call home — is only $12, and that's the original price tag! The Zone Gadget Charging Station is guaranteed to keep your gadgets nice and juiced up, and in one central location, so you'll never have to search for your lost MP3 player again.

Very interesting — used to be, we only saw charging stations made of wood or plastic, but now it seems you can get the useful organizing hubs in natural materials as well — not everyone was into the Seagrass Charging Station, but it's a novel use of material.
Pottery Barn is in on the action too, with its new Woven Rattan Charging Station ($49).
The natural willow reed encloses the charging strip, while your gadgets sit in the front of the basket.

For the past several months, I've been on a mission to keep my cords neat, and my gadgets charged. Although my quest for the ultimate charging station may never end (which may lead to my white flag of surrender, and leave me embracing the visible cord way of living), you may find a charging station in this slideshow that completely fits your needs. Check out some of my favorite charging stations ever in this slideshow.

I had no idea Laura Ashley was making charging stations. Just kidding. But this Floral Charging Station ($165) at Neiman Marcus reminds me of the '90s designer who loved — I mean, really loved — her florals.

Shot of wheatgrass, anyone? Though I highly doubt that the "grass" in this Charging Station ($27) is actually real, the description doesn't say otherwise, leaving my imagination to run wild. Wild as that crazy grass.

The only thing that bothers me about charging stations is that they take up valuable real estate in your home and only provide one service: charging.
But this new design, called Central Station by Christian Lessing, combines a shoe rack and a charging station. This would be perfect for an entryway; imagine walking in and winding down by unloading your cell phone and freeing your feet.
