    Just 40 Things Under $50 You're Going To Want... Like, Immediately

    If something is cute, useful, *and* affordable, you know you've scored.

    1. A pair of fluffy house slippers that will make you think you're walking on clouds. They have nearly 22,000 5-star reviews with people raving about how cute and comfortable they are.

    2. A set of claw hair clips with the super chic tortoise print. In this two-piece set, you'll get one classic color (a darker brown) and one light tan. Reviewers say they're strong enough to hold super thick and curly hair, and sturdy enough to hold straight hair too!

    3. A cool foaming hand soap that pumps in the shape of a flower or paw print! It also pumps onto your hand vertically for a much easier handwash situation.

    4. A pair of LaBeautyologist Cleansing Cuffs to stop annoying drenched sleeves from being a part of your skincare routine. The cuffs are comfortable, super absorbent, and essentially make your arm a drip-free zone when you wash your face.

    5. A fluffy weighted blanket that'll make life easier in the sense of better sleep and being a calming hug when you need one. It's even reversible with one side being comfy fluff, and the other a cozy sherpa material. When not in use, it's the perfect throw for your couch or bed!

    6. A cute, stackable under-cabinet drawer to organize cleaning supplies in the kitchen or beauty products in the bathroom. Some reviewers even use it to organize their food pantry. Basically, you've got options here.

    7. A jar of the bestselling Pink Stuff for those hard-to-get stains, dirt, and rust spots around the house. It works for everything from bathtubs and stove tops to tennis shoes and crayon-covered walls.

    8. A set of glass storage canisters to stylishly hold your pasta, coffee beans, and treats. You'll get five variously sized canisters, each with a silicone ring on the included bamboo lids to ensure things stay fresh.

    9. A soothing sunrise alarm clock so waking up groggy isn't the norm anymore. With this, it'll feel calming and natural, like an at-home vacation, if you will. Having that every morning? I'll take it.

    10. A faux fur area rug to make any room a tad more sophisticated. BTW, if you put it by your bed, your feet will be super cozy when you step out.

    11. A chic duvet cover and pillowcase set that'll really pull your bedroom together. The rustic orange color is trending, and the best part about a duvet is that you can easily switch it out to fit your ever-changing taste!

    12. A set of soda can "lids" to make your favorite cans of soda or La Croix much more portable, while still keeping their bubbly goodness, too.

    Reviewers also *swear* by these for keeping sand and dirt off the rim at picnics or the beach! 

    Promising review: "Biggest thing since sliced bread. Do you hate it when you when can’t finish your soda or maybe don’t have time? If you're driving somewhere it’s difficult to handle a can drink sometimes, you’re trying to take a sip and all a sudden you hit a pot hole. Soda up your nose, down your chin, on your clothes. It doesn’t have to be that way anymore — with these you can enjoy you soda just like it was in a bottle. I was skeptical at first, but sold as soon as I put it on the can. I use it every day." —Jonesy

    13. A cordless purse light for those with huge bags that don't seem to end when you're looking for something specific. Sensors detect when your hand is close and will light up in response. And it automatically shuts off, too!

    14. A bottle of One Hit Wonder 10-in-1 Leave-in Spray because it's everything you'd want in a hair product and more! It controls frizz, detangles, conditions, prevents breakage, strengthens — honestly, the list goes on and on.

    15. A set of satin pillowcases to ensure your hair and skin protection continues while you're sleeping! With satin, there's less friction which means no more tangled hair (thank goodness!) and the cooling effect will help you sleep soundly.

    16. A set of colorful dinnerware for making homemade meals (and reheated leftovers) taste even better. You've got your choice of pretty pastels, bold yellows, and muted earth tones.

    17. A double-sided tea organizer to free up space in the cabinet and toss all of those tea boxes.

    18. A wearable blanket, because it looks like a giant hoodie but feels like the most warm and comfortable blanket ever. It's even lined with fluffy sherpa to keep in the extra warmth when you're lounging at home or out and about.

    19. A small sound machine that'll play sounds so soothing, you can't help but doze off into a good night's sleep. Featured sounds include ocean waves, rain, bonfires, and simple white noise (among 16 others) with 32 volume levels.

    20. A thumb book page holder to ease the annoying task of constantly adjusting the moving pages while reading. No more creasing pages and the holder is just really really cute!

    21. A leak-proof time-marked water bottle if you're the person who ~always~ needs to be reminded to drink water. This is the perfect (and most stylish!) way to stay hydrated. Reviewers say this bottle is super lightweight, sleek, and motivational. Plus, seeing your progress throughout the day is always fun!

    Promising review: "Like so many others, I saw these water bottles all over TikTok but sheesh the price for some of the ones they had were atrocious! So when I saw Arc had one PRETTIER and MORE glam feeling for a cheaper price I had to grab it, being the money wise but impulsive shopper that I am :) LISTENNNNN!! I have a hundred other water bottles, this is by far my favorite!! It’s soooo easy to clean, I KEEP Vaseline on my hands and this has yet to fall (so duh it’s easy to hold), but it has fallen a ton because I’m clumsy and it still looks brand new! The minimalist frosted look with the aesthetic times and gold top! Girl, bye you cannot tell me I’m not a rich b**** when I carry my best friend! I love it so much that my little cousins have all asked me to buy them one!!" —I Am Tonya Maria

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in three colors and two sizes). 

    22. A collapsible hanger that not only makes it easier to see all your options in a crowded closet, but it uses half the space! This hanger holds up to five pairs of pants but only takes up the space of two or three. *Mind blown* 🤯

    23. A portable canvas cup holder to carry your iced coffee while you're out and about. If you love iced coffee (or any cold beverage, really), you know the struggle of having your hands full, cold palms, and water dripping on your clothes — this helpful invention solves that!

    25. The Turbie Twist microfiber hair towel wrap that's made of super absorbent material designed to prevent frizz and gently and quickly dry hair.

    27. A set of water-absorbent coasters that are just as cute as they are useful. These marble-style coasters are fast acting when it comes to liquid cleanup, and they even have a cork bottom so there is no unwanted movement.

    30. A pack of silicone hooks for your AirPods because these things are too dang valuable to lose (again). They're also a great help if the shape of AirPods don't quite fit your ears, and you're always readjusting them.

    These also work great for wired EarPods!

    Promising review:s "Do not hesitate to buy these. My AirPod Pros were constantly falling out my ears and it was so annoying. These anti-slip ear hooks are a life saver. Do not hesitate to buy them, because it works. They help my AirPods stay in place, and I don't have to worry about losing them anymore. The pack includes three pairs of replacements hooks, and a cute little carry pouch." —Simone

    "Finally, something that actually makes my AirPod Pros stay in! I was hesitant to try at first seeing as they’re made of a silicone material. But they fit and my AirPods stay comfortably in my ears. I danced, I ran, I jumped, I talked, and they still stayed in. I love that they come with three pairs so there’s plenty of backups. Great product and a great price!" —Chad Johnson

    Get a pack of three from Amazon for $13.95 (available for AirPod 3s and AirPod Pros).

    31. A selfie ring light that'll help brighten your frame for work meetings or online classes and provide the perfect lighting for selfies. It's small enough to fit in purses and backpacks too!

    32. A smart–button pusher because who doesn't want to voice control their light switch, garage doors, or AC these days? (It even works on manual coffee makers — ah!) This cool gadget works through the SwitchBot app and is also compatible with Alexa, Google Home, HomePod, and more.

    33. A nail polish organizer to organize that always growing collection of yours. It can hold up to 60 bottles and even has room for accessories like nail files, nail clippers, and more.

    34. A Tile Mate for those who lose their keys, phone, or wallet all the time. When attached to your keychain (or placed in your wallet), you'll be able to know where it's located using the app or reverse search on the Tile Mate to find your phone. Genius, right?

    35. A set of game-changing ceiling fan pulls, because the struggle to remember which cord controls the light vs. the fan is a worldwide phenomenon. This is the *perfect* solution!

    Promising review: "This is the definition of 'product you didn't know you needed because you didn't know it existed.' I was FOREVER pulling the wrong chain on our bedroom ceiling fan. (Want the light off? Oh no...now the fan's on high. Need to change the fan speed? Eek...now you're in the dark.) They're a much better quality than I expected. They're actually quite heavy-duty pull chains, and they add a bit of fun to the decor (when you notice them — most of the time, who even thinks about a ceiling fan pull chain?). As an added bonus, my infant daughter loves staring at them while I change her diaper or jammies. I tap them to make the chains swing, and it's instant fascination, which helps make my job easier!" —LHD

    Get them from Amazon for $6.69+ (available in four colors and two lengths).

    36. A coffee mug warmer with three heat settings and an auto shutoff feature so you'll never have to worry about forgetting to turn it off when not in use.

    A blue and grey stand up pillow with arms and a handle on the top.

    38. A roll of stained-glass window decals that's no only great for privacy, but also for having constant rainbows and positive energy in your home. When the sun hits your window, the entire room will make you smile.

    39. An adorable mushroom glass cup set because it'll make iced coffee, wine, cocktails, and other non-hot beverages just a little more fun. 🍄

    40. An eight-piece set of measuring cups with wood handles to add a rustic flair to your utensil drawer.
