    If You Hate Spending Money, Here Are 35 Affordable TikTok Products That'll Give You So Much Bang For Your Buck

    Everything on this list costs less than 30 bucks, but the satisfaction you'll feel once you try them is priceless.

    1. A very handy and nerve-calming electric lighter for anyone with a sliiight phobia of using matches. This will help you light all of your favorite candles with confidence, save you money on lighter fluid, and easily reach low wicks in those super narrow candle holders. Bonus: It's really pretty, too!

    BuzzFeed Shopping's Emma Lord says: "This also comes in other pretty colors, but I am especially partial to this one because I bought it for my parents (their kitchen is entirely pink and one of my favorite places on Earth), and this was SO EASY to use — not to mention super safe! I'm a big weenie about fire (LOL, self-preservation) so I've always stuck to extended-arm gas lighters, but this is much better for the environment (plus cuter), so I feel a lot better about using it. You can read my full Leejie electric lighter review for more deets!"

    Promising review: "Works like a charm. I saw this in a TikTok. Knew immediately that I needed it. I love candles and this is so much better than a match or lighter. It’s kept a charge for months. I use it several times a month." —dwhite3012

    Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in five colors).

    2. A super cool dual cereal dispenser in case you've ever dreamed of turning your kitchen into a mini version of one of those fancy office cafeterias. Not only will this make preparing your breakfast more fun, it'll also let kids grab their own cereal on hectic mornings!

    Promising review: "We have three kids and a very small kitchen with very little cabinet/counter space!!! We used to keep our cereal boxes on top of our refrigerator, but I've been trying to declutter and also come up with a solution for our kids to be able to get their own cereal in the mornings. THIS IS IT!!!! It looks great on our counter, and we have very little space, so it fits just right! This has been the perfect solution to giving our kids the independence they need to get their own breakfast! It has been a lifesaver!!! Love it!!!" —tenle

    Get it from Amazon for $28.72

    3. Essence's Lash Princess mascara, which has taken Beauty TikTok by storm with its five dollar price tag and ~eye-catching~ results. Swipe some on for instantly lengthier, more voluminous lashes, which lots of reviewers say will last throughout the day (and without clumping). It'll probably be the best five bucks you'll ever spend.

    Watch a TikTok reviewer apply the mascara here!

    Promising review: "Great coverage on the first swipe! I have been searching for a good mascara for months and have had no luck. I saw this was on sale and had good reviews so figured I’d give it a try. I was really really surprised most mascaras are goopy the first time you try time and end up getting all over I didn’t have an issue with this one which was a pleasant surprise, the brush is fiber and not silicon another pulse for me, first swipe I was shocked, it covered well and made my lashes look thicker and longer, I waited a few seconds and applied one more coat and that was it! No need to keep going back over them, I haven’t tried to remove it yet but I’m very happy with it and I think my search for the perfect mascara might be over!" —Amber Borah

    4. An adorable color-changing mushroom night-light that won't only contribute to your room's FYP-inspired aesthetic, it'll also come in handy when you get up to pee at night.

    Promising review: "I LOVE this night-light. It's in my bathroom and is a lovely addition. It turns off the second the lights go on, which is nice because I don't have to worry about accidentally leaving it on. Super cute and the little itty-bitty lighting element does a good job lighting, just enough so I don't have to turn the main lights on in the middle of the night." —1Thand

    Get it from Amazon for $5.97

    5. A very meta hairbrush cleaning brush equipped with not one, not two, but three ways of removing all of those shedded tresses. The pointy tip reaches hair in your brush's small interior crevices, while the spiky bristles catch onto the strands and help lift them out. Finally, the stiff bristles at the end will take care of all of the dusty lint just floating around in there (ew!).

    Watch someone use it to clean their Revlon Hot Air Brush on TikTok here!

    Reviewers recommend giving your brush a good soak in warm water after using this tool to make it shine!

    Promising review: "It seemed ridiculous to buy a brush for my hairbrush, but this really works! I had recently bought a new hairbrush and I was shocked by the amount of fuzzies and dust that it accumulated so quickly — it looked dirty! I found this and scrubbed my regular hairbrush and all the lint/fuzzies came out. The bristles are very stiff so I was worried about damaging the boar bristles in my hairbrush but it didn’t at all. I feel like my hairbrush is a lot cleaner now!" —Kate

    Get it from Amazon for $11.95

    6. A nifty Bread Buddy dispenser, which keeps loaves fresh for much longer than just storing them in their plastic bags by creating an airtight seal. Wrap the top of the bag over the sides of the dispenser, then just pull down whenever you want a slice (it's fun!). No more wasted bread or seeing a teeny speck of green and wondering if you can just ~eat around it~.

    See it in action on TikTok here

    Plus, some reviewers say they bring it on trips when they don't want their bread getting smushed en route. 

    Promising review: "The Buddeez Sandwich Bread Dispenser is great! It does exactly what it was intended for. I live alone, and I don't quite go through bread often enough before the last quarter section of the loaf starts to go stale. I was originally looking for something to put a loaf of bread in as a shell for my vacuum sealer, that would keep the bread from getting crushed from the pressure. This dispenser solved all of my problems. Thank you!" —DRMcQuaig

    Get it from Amazon for $12.49 (available in red or white). 

    7. A jar of Museum Gel to keep your fragile possessions from toppling over like dominoes when there's unexpected movement. If you have little kids or pets and like nice things, this is a must, and you'll get 300 uses out of each jar!

    See why one TikTok reviewer with small children loves it here

    To use, just grab a bit of gel, roll it into a ball, and stick it to the bottom of any item you'd like to protect. It's removable, reusable, and won't ruin your furniture. Plus, some reviewers say it's great for keeping things like cabinet and drawer liners from sliding around.

    Promising review: "This is AMAZING! I recently got a kitten and of course he loves to tap on things with his paws until he knocks it down. My friend uses this product and told me I had to get it. So worth it!! Once you apply the jelly and let it sit for a little while those objects will not move! And the best part is that it does not damage the surface that it was placed on. 10/10 would recommend!!!" —Darryl Hoard

    Get it from Amazon for $13.69.

    8. A cult-favorite TubShroom (80,000+ 5-star ratings!) that proactively catches any hair that makes its way into your drain so the water doesn't take friggin' FOR-EV-ER going down. Plus, it'll save you money on plumber visits!

    reviewer photo of a gray tubshroom in a drain
    same reviewer pulling the gray tubshroom filled with hair out of the drain

    Hear what one TikTok reviewer thinks of it here!

    Promising review: "I hardly ever write reviews, but this thing is so amazing I had to share. With every shower I take, I shed a TON of hair and (as you can see from the picture) stick it to the wall so that no hair goes down my drain. I thought this method was working out well but my drain was continuing to stop up. I figured it must be my sister's fault since I was so good about not letting any hairs go down the drain, but I went ahead ordered the TubShroom after seeing advertisements on Facebook. I got this thing and after only two showers, it collected a crap ton of my hair that I didn't catch. It really is so easy to install and wipe away the hair, exactly like the videos. Awesome invention, and I'm super happy with this purchase!" —Megan K.

    Get it from Amazon for $11+ (available in five colors and a set of two). 

    9. A super popular set of matte hair claws, because they're adorable *and* they'll effortlessly make you look like an updo pro even if you're the type of person who "can't do hair." Oh, and reviewers with thicker manes say these keep their hair in place like champs.

    See 'em in action on TikTok here!

    BuzzFeed Shopping's Ciera Velarde says: "I've owned this set for about a year and I am reaching for them constantly! I used to be someone who would tie my hair up in a messy bun whenever I'm doing things around the house, but I noticed how that would really start damaging my hair after a while. Instead, I just clip my hair back with one of these, and my long, thick hair stays in place without the claw jamming into my head. I have some other clips lying around that I should probably get rid of because I only ever exclusively use these!"

    Promising review: "I will admit I bought these from seeing them on TikTok and I needed new clips for my thick hair. I am not disappointed and beyond glad I got them. The colors are gorgeous and they stay put without hurting my head. I'm very impressed." —Jessica

    Get a set of four from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in nine color combos).

    10. An affordable handheld milk frother that belongs in your cart if you looked at last month's credit card statement and realized half of your salary was being spent at Starbucks. No, you don't need a fancy espresso machine or sky-high cappuccino budget whenever you want something cozy to sip!

    Watch one TikToker make a homemade PSL using the frother here

    Promising review: "Best frother that I've ever used...very comfortable to use and powerful, too. Got this to replace another branded one that zonked out on me after only a couple of months. Love love this frother. I use it to 'blend' my morning coffee with coconut oil. This frother is more powerful than my last. The stand is a nice little bonus to keep the frother off the table and from rolling off the counter. The handle is very comfortable to hold. The back (if the label is facing you), has an index finger rest. I highly recommend this frother." —N Duong

    Get it from Amazon for $9.09+ (available in 38 styles).

    11. A tub of *iconic* cleaning paste The Pink Stuff, because once you realize how much stain-lifting power this absolute miracle in a jar has, you'll wonder how you ever got anything clean without it. Not only does it get stains out, it does it so quickly and with minimal effort on your part, whether you're tackling crusty cookware or crayon catastrophes.

    Check out yours truly using it three ways on TikTok!

    After seeing countless videos on cleaning TikTok that raved about The Pink Stuff, I knew I had to try it out on my stained, grime-coated sheet tray. I mean, if it could make a dent in that, I'd probably believe in magic. Well, I started scrubbing one corner as a test, and lo and behold, the difference was nothing short of DRAMATIC (check out my TikTok for proof!). And I didn't even have to scrub very hard, though as someone with ~minimal~ upper body strength, I doubt any force I could physically apply would even constitute as heavy scrubbing. At any rate, it worked so well that I tried it on a pair of dirty tennis shoes and a blue stain that had been singed onto my toaster oven for months, and, yup, it worked. I will say, if you want your sheet trays to look brand spankin' new, you might need one of those cleaning scraper tools to get every last bit off, but as far as general stain removal goes, consider me a FAN. 

    Get it from Amazon for $3.97 (also available in multipacks). 

    12. E.l.f.'s Poreless Putty Primer, which has over 25,000 5-star ratings — probably because it's more than just a smooth makeup base. It contains squalane, which mimics oil naturally found in our bodies to keep thirsty skin hydrated, so your face will feel as good as it looks. Oh, and reviewers say your makeup will. not. budge with this stuff.

    Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok and thought I'd take a chance. I have sensitive skin and have to watch what I use. I LOVE this product! Goes on smooth and you don't need to use a lot. I put it on before I put on my foundation. Makes a huge difference. Highly recommend and will buy again!!" —Brooks Crim

    Get it from Amazon for $9.50 (also available in three other primer types). 

    13. Bacon Bin shaped like a cute little piggy for storing the delicious grease left over from your favorite breakfast protein. Instead of pouring it down the drain (and clogging your pipes 😬), keep it in this little cup for future cooking purposes. Plus, it comes with a handy strainer so you can easily discard any stray bits of bacon.

    It's made by small biz Talisman Designs, which creates helpful products to make cooking at home a little easier. Store it on your counter or in the fridge, or even freeze it to easily pop out the solidified grease.

    Promising review: "This thing is awesome. Big enough to hold plenty of grease without taking up a ton of space. I keep mine in the butter compartment of my fridge next to the butter. I poured the grease right from the pan, still very hot right into it and popped the lid on and put it in the fridge. Next time I needed some grease I scooped some out with a spoon, no muss no fuss. Much better than the glass jar I was using. My only warning is if you get it out when people are visiting keep an eye on it. It's so cute and so good at its job everyone will want one. This is an awesome gift idea. The little box it comes in is so cute with its little piggie face sticking out. Anyone who cooks with grease will love this." —John Dollard

    Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in two sizes).

    14. A microplane foot file with serious smoothing power you'll want if your dry, cracked feet are in desperate need of some TLC. You'll be shocked by how much grated cheese — whoops, skin — it removes, even after the first use. And at under 10 bucks? I mean, the photos say it all.

    Promising review: "I have purchased every callus cream on the market and it has been a waste of time and money. This simple device is a miracle worker. The callus on my big toe is very, very hard and the nearby callous along the side of the foot, while not as large and hard, is also difficult. I have used this device three days in a row, taking off a little at a time and not applying pressure. I apply lotion before and after using it and both areas show substantial improvement. It is important that you do not rush this process. Just a little at a time. Remember how long it took for that callus to form! Because I have been gentle and careful, I have no pain. Cleaning is simple. I wholeheartedly recommend!" —desertdragonfly

    Get it from Amazon for $9.95.

    15. And a reusable Korean microdermabrasion mitt that'll buff away all of your dry, dead skin without the need for pricey spa treatments. The exfoliation comes from a skin-smoothing viscose fiber lining, and once it's cleared away all the flaky stuff, your skin will have an easier time absorbing lotions and creams. If you love a gross-yet-satisfying moment, this is for you.

    Watch one TikToker use it to remove their self-tanner build-up here!

    Promising review: "I love these mitts so much. I wish I found them sooner! For me, brushes and loofas don’t give me enough exfoliation, and they fall apart and get gross too fast. These mitts are perfect. Also, they are way more cost effective and easier to use than a sugar scrub type product. I feel like these mitts will last a long time, and they’re easy to clean and have a loop so you can hang them to dry in your shower. I keep one at my place and one at my boyfriend's. They are a little rough, so it’s not something you want to use more than twice per week, and use gentle motions in sensitive areas. My skin is so smooth after I use these, and it’s helped me get rid of ingrown hairs on my bikini line. Just make sure to moisturize after using! I’m excited to use it for when I apply fake tan in the summer months." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (also available as a pair). 

    16. An *ingenious* Creative Water Cup, which is made up of two compartments so you can guzzle down your iced coffee while staying hydrated with good ole' H2O without schlepping multiple beverage bottles around.

    Promising review: "You NEED this. This product is AMAZING. When I run errands, I hate bringing both a water bottle and coffee tumbler. This product solves that issue. I ran it through my dishwasher to clean it, and the plastic didn’t morph at all. 10/10 recommend!" —Megan Huffman

    Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in three colors). 

    17. dishwasher magnet you simply toggle to say whether the contents inside are clean or dirty — a seemingly small gesture with potentially *major* peace-keeping results. If you've ever experienced the horror of your roommate putting dirty dishes into a dishwasher filled with clean ones, you need this in your cart, stat.

    Promising review: "What took them so long?? Every household should have one of these. Does your partner point to the dishwasher and ask you, 'Hey, are these good?' Mine did, almost daily. Not anymore, though! A breeze to install (our dishwasher is magnetic, but I'm really glad it came with adhesive pads — someday when we move, if we need them we have them!), and even though I bought it (mostly) as a joke, I use the heck out of it. Slides easily when it needs to." —Andrea Braun

    Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in four styles).

    18. An equally cute and functional Magic Mushroom kitchen funnel, because the best practical items are the ones that'll make everyday tasks, like transferring liquids into containers with teeny-tiny openings, much more enjoyable. And it'll look so charming in your kitchen!

    To use it, just flip it inside out and stick the "stem" through your container's opening. Plus, it's dishwasher safe!

    Promising review: "I am obsessed with this funnel!!! I juice a lot of citrus and juices for cocktails, and this little guy is the perfect size for bottling. It’s beyond cute and really great quality. I’m always hesitant about buying silicone items, as I don’t want them to be too thin. This is perfect! Sturdy and cute! Can’t get better than that! The perfect addition to any ‘cottage core’ kitchen!" —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $17.95

    19. A versatile matcha-infused moisture stick made with just three ingredients: caffeine-rich matcha powder, organic coconut oil, and organic beeswax. You can dab it anywhere your skin feels dry, whether it's your lips, hands, or face, and the matcha can also help reduce the appearance of dark circles and eye puffiness.

    You can see how one TikTok reviewer applies the stick under their eyes, to their cheeks, over their lips, and even on their knuckles here. They also show how they use Cocokind's turmeric stick on targeted areas to unclog pores! Plus, some reviewers say they swipe the matcha balm over their styled brows to keep them in place.

    Cocokind is a San Francisco-based small biz that makes truly dreamy, cruelty-free skincare products with sustainability in mind. 

    Promising review: "This is my first time using the MyMatcha stick and I looovvveee it! I have it on me pretty much all the time so I can dab a little bit on my dry spots as I need to. It softens up my dry areas and even decreases the swelling of my acne! I've used it as a moisture stick, an acne anti-inflammatory, and even a fly-away tamer. It's a great multitasking product." —alizza d.

    Get it from Amazon for $8.99 or Cocokind for $9.

    20. A very popular and affordable pair of wireless Bluetooth earbuds reviewers say are legit AirPods dupes (they have 220,000+ 5-star ratings!). Not only will they provide literal hours of cord-free listening time, they're also waterproof! Go toss those static-y ones you've been using; your ears deserve better.

    A single charge provides over 10 hours of usage, and the rechargeable case can have them fully juiced up in under 90 minutes. 

    Promising review: "Best decision! These are the greatest headphones ever! I saw them on TikTok months ago and added them to my wishlist. I got a new phone that doesn't have the headphone port so I decided it was time to finally buy them. They are amazing and I probably won't ever take them out of my ears! 😂" —Katlyn D Arnold

    Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in five colors).

    21. A 3-in-1 pill storage container that serves as a splitter and crusher, as well as a small drinking cup that'll make taking meds on the go a whole lot easier. Oh, and if you need an easy way of grinding up pills to sneak into your pet's food, look no further!

    Promising review: "I can't swallow pills (effects of GERD) so pill crushing has been a mess and a pain. This little gadget is quick, easy and keeps the process tidy. Made of sturdy plastic, it's lightweight and compact and does the job beautifully! Highly recommend!" —Stephanie

    22. A pair of lightweight tapered joggers reviewers on Amazon and TikTok alike swear are *perfect* dupes for Lululemon's much pricier Align joggers. Not only are they so comfy you'll feel like you're wearing PJs, they'll also make you look much more put-together than your grubby old sweats when you wear 'em in public.

    Promising review: "Incredibly comfortable pants. I am so impressed with these pants that I will be ordering another pair. These closely resemble the Align pant from Lululemon for a fraction of the price, plus the material does not pill like the Align material does. The pockets are deep and the material is so lightweight!" —Elise M

    Get them from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and 15 colors). 

    23. An Oxo 3-in-1 avocado tool, which safely splits, pits, and slices avocados so you can prepare Insta-worthy avo toasts right in your own kitchen. Avocado slicing injuries are VERY common, so this handy gizmo could also save you a trip to the ER!

    Promising review: "I love avocados, but I hardly ever buy them because they're so inconvenient to deal with. This tool ABSOLUTELY changes that. I knew I was getting something that would make it a little easier to pit and slice my avocado, but I had no idea HOW MUCH EASIER it would be. This thing is amazing!" —Edianter

    Get it from Amazon for $11.95 (also available in several bundles). 

    24. A shampoo scalp massager you're gonna be angry you didn't invent yourself (but will absolutely LOVE using during all future showers). Not only does it help evenly distribute shampoo (no more residue pockets!), it'll let you replicate alllll of those pleasurable salon scalp tingles.

    Promising review: "I saw this little thing all over TikTok and everyone swore by it. To be honest, they’re right, and I now swear by it. It’s perfectly soft and sturdy to massage the scalp. Works shampoo into roots, helps with dry skin and such. I absolutely love it, and I use it every time I wash my hair. I most definitely would recommend to anyone. Don’t hesitate." —Z

    Get it from Amazon for $7.98+ (available in three colors).

    25. An anxiety-reducing security stamp roller, because you can't put a price on minimizing the risk of identity theft (that being said, this bb clocks in at under 10 bucks!). Use it to cover up sensitive or personal information on nonglossy paper, and you'll get 1,000 impressions out of each roller!

    Check it out on TikTok here!

    Each swipe can cover about three lines of text, making it impossible to read from the front or back. When it's *finally* time for a refill, you can purchase extra cartridges here

    Promising review: "I read a lot of mixed reviews of other rollers before deciding on this one. Some people mentioned the small size as a problem, but for me it's a plus. I don't have room for a big gadget. I was also put off by rollers that spread the word CONFIDENTIAL, drawing attention to what you're trying to hide. This one uses a pattern of letters that leaves an unintelligible black thicket of lines. I use it every day, and while it still has plenty of ink, I'm glad it is refillable. Highly recommended! Now I can recycle things I used to have to shred and discard." —rainforest

    Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in five colors, as well as a multipack). 

    26. An equal parts stylish and functional watch ring so you'll be fashionably early rather than late. Wristwatches can be bulky and cumbersome, but reviewers say this little thing works just as well as the full-size versions.

    27. A money-saving bottle emptying cap that'll prop up (or should I say, *down*) those almost empty bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your shower, meaning none of that sudsy goodness goes to waste. No more cutting up your plastic containers just to reach the stuff at the bottom — plus, it'll help you effortlessly transfer the contents of one bottle to another!

    Each kit includes four adapters in different sizes to fit pretty much any bottle. 

    Promising review: "Well worth it! Think of all the product in bottles you waste every year by not using something like this. It certainly covers the cost of this item! I love it!" —Rock360

    28. A handy little cleaning ball you just toss into your dust/crumb/lint-filled bag so it can collect all the debris hiding at the bottom. Roll it around, and the sticky surface will pick up any loose particles — and best of all, you can rinse it off and use it over and over again! If you've ever grabbed a piece of gum covered in sand (?!) out of your bag, this has your name written all over it.

    Promising review: "I found out about this little gadget from a TikTok video, and I thought I'd give it a try. I usually keep some sort of snack in my purse, and as much as I try to keep the containers sealed and to keep my bags clean, I inevitably end up with those annoying little micro-crumbs at the bottom. As soon as I ordered this ball, I put it straight into my purse, and within a day or two, it was already time to wash it! It picks up a lot for being so small! Pro tip: To open it, squeeze the thick ring around the middle and it should pop apart pretty easily. Rinse off the sticky ball part with just water, then put it back together and let it air dry for a couple of hours. Good as new! I highly recommend this product. Whether you have kids or not, bags just get lint and teeny tiny little crumbs over time. Buy it!!" —Sarah Couv

    29. An absolutely *genius* adjustable measuring spoon that really comes in handy when you have limited drawer space, since it's really six different spoons in one! All you do is drag the slider to your desired amount, from 1/2 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon, and you'll get the correct portion — no more digging around in search of multiple spoons.

    Promising review: "I really like that I can use just one tool to measure whatever I need by adjusting the spoon size. I cook and bake frequently and this has been so convenient to use. I no longer have to worry about finding a specific spoon size and this takes up less room, which is key since I have limited storage space." —Amber O

    Get it from Amazon for $19.73.

    30. A National Geographic geode kit, which might just be the coolest at-home activity for kids *and* adult children alike. It comes with 10 (yes, 10!) unassuming rocks you bust open with a hammer to reveal their sparkly crystal interiors, and once you're done you'll have some shimmery decor to display in every corner of your house!

    The kit includes a magnifying glass, safety goggles, display stands, and a full-color geode learning guide.

    Promising review: "Not just for kids! I’m 25 and I still love this kit! My boyfriend and I break these open together and it’s so much fun!! We got a great variety and will be ordering another!" —Stephanie Lawson

    31. A very "why didn't I think of that" set of double shower curtain hooks, because you know what isn't fun? Undoing each ring whenever you wanna switch out your liner. With this, the curtain and liner each have their own sides so you can easily pop 'em off. Low cost, HUGE reward.

    Promising review: "I hate changing out the liner on my shower because it meant I had to remove the curtain, too. Not any more! I saw this set of hooks in a TikTok review. Now I can swap out the liner with ease. The hooks also slide on the curtain rod very easily, no tugging." —Christina

    32. A drill brush kit you simply pop onto your drill to give your toughest stains a run for their money. This set includes three types of brushes in different shapes and sizes to suit corners, flat surfaces, and everywhere in between.

    Need a drill? Here's one

    This brush comes in different colors and bristle textures: white is a soft bristle, best for wheels, carpets, upholstery, glass, and leather; yellow is a medium bristle, best for bathrooms, bathtubs, shower, tiles, and porcelain; green is a medium bristle, best for kitchens, stoves, cabinets, countertops, and linoleum; blue is a medium bristle, best for boats, pools, canoes/kayaks, hot tubs, and plastics; red is a stiff bristle, best for outdoors, siding, brick, garages, and gutters; and black is a hard bristle, best for grills, loose paint, furnaces, ovens, and industrial use.

    Drill Brush is a small business that was founded by Anthony LaPolla, a former electrician with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome who developed this tool as a way to clean while avoiding painful scrubbing. 

    Promising review: "Bought these on a whim and was skeptical if they would really help, but man am I glad I did! They made cleaning our glass shower door and fiberglass shower a breeze! Don't really want to admit how long it had been between cleanings, but the shower shined like it never had before (even with using tough elbow grease and a standard bristle brush). No issues with the brushes leaving marks, but definitely want to err on the side of caution on how long you stay in a spot. Used the large flat circular brush for the door and walls, and the round toilet bowl type brush worked great in the corners and on fixtures." —Molly

    Get a set of three brush heads from Amazon for $17.99+ (available with soft, medium, stiff, and ultra-stiff bristles in several colors).

    33. An all-purpose stain spray, which is called "Emergency Stain Rescue" for a reason. Spritz it on any fabric in need of reviving, let it work its magic, and voila! Whether you're famous for wearing white shirts whenever pizza night rolls around or have a toddler who loves hugging you with slimy hands, you'll wanna keep a bottle stashed in your cabinet at all times.

    The Hate Stains Co. is a small biz that was founded by a parent who set out to create a stain remover that was nontoxic but effective. 

    Promising review: "I've tried Shout wipes, stain removal pens, and all the other tricks in the book. This removes organic stains from sweat better than anything I've tried thus far. I followed the directions, got the fabric wet, sprayed it on, and left it to chill for an hour. When I came back, I was dumbfounded. I can't believe I didn't have this sooner, I'm about to buy a gallon!" —Mark, the solid 7 out of 10

    34. A very useful Crack'em egg cracker that doubles as a spoon rest and features a foolproof cracking edge to give you a nice, clean line on your shell that easily lets you pull it apart (rather than a zillion tiny pieces that inevitably make their way into whatever you're cooking up).

    Promising review: "I absolutely cannot believe I'm doing this. I got this because I am ALWAYS having to pick out the shell when I crack an egg, whether for breakfast or my baking. Since buying this, I have cracked dozens of eggs without ANY shells in it. To say I am happy is an understatement. If you don't have one you should rush to get one. We are going to get them for wedding gifts when we know that the couple loves to do their own cooking. Kudos to whoever thought of this. It works perfectly, every time." —Edwin Myers

    Get it from Amazon for $9.95+ (available in five colors).

    35. And finally, a digital luggage scale, which should be on everyone's travel checklist, since it lets you know just how much you can cram into your suitcase without it resulting in some — surprise! — hefty over-capacity fees. Now you'll have extra cash for souvenirs!

    Just hook the scale to your luggage handle, lift up, and the LCD display will show the weight! You can also switch between pound and kilogram measurements. 

    Promising review: "Took this for a 10-day trip overseas with lots of flights. Weighed the luggage as things were added to it/purchased, and when we weighed in at the airport it was perfectly accurate. Very important when the airline will charge $70 more dollars for a suitcase that is too heavy or make you open the whole thing up and take stuff out in order to fly with it. Saved so much hassle." —B. M. O'Connor
