    18 Random Things That Made Me Wonder, "Why Don't I Own This Already?"

    Do I need a banana-shaped wine stopper? Yes. Definitely, yes.

    1. A pack of webcam covers that'll protect your camera lens (and your privacy) when it's not in use. It slides open and closed for easy access, with the added perk of the red portion to remind you when you're camera's visible.

    2. An angled measuring cup that'll give you a bird's-eye view of your measurements, so you won't have to awkwardly crouch down to eye level — a pretty big deal if you suffer from back or neck pains (not I, only in my twenties 🙄).

    3. A set of ~jazzy~ coasters for the turntable enthusiast that'll pay tribute to all your musical loves. Each one has a different design, so it'll be easy to keep track of whose drink is whose (whom's? 🤔).

    4. A pair of fluffy faux fur keychains that you won't want to stop playing with. The tiny golden cat ears give them an extra cutesy flair, making it a perfect little accessory to ~zhuzh up~ your keys or purse (or both!).

    5. A fake shirt collar so you can look your Sunday best without suffocating in layers. It'll add a sweet touch to any plain sweater, plus give you a bunch of other 'fit options to play with using clothes that are already in your closet.

    6. A retro bluetooth controller in the beloved SNES-style that you can connect to your switch, phone, PC, and even your Mac. Every part of the controller is fully functioning (from joysticks and rumble vibration to a proper D-pad!), so you won't have to choose between looks and performance.

    7. And a Razer mobile game controller that'll connect to your smartphone, so you won't have to sacrifice another hard-fought victory because you tapped on the wrong pixel (😩). It slides closed to become more compact, so you can keep it in your bag until it's time to bring your A-game.

    8. A tube of Elizavecca leave-in hair essence that'll give your hair an extra scrumptious dose of collagen and protein. Reviewers are obsessed with how much softer and shinier their locks feel, saying it's a miracle worker for damaged tresses and frizzy flyaways.

    9. A folding dice tray that'll elevate your Game Master status while preventing your dice from ricocheting off of every wall. The velvet lining is as nice to look at as it is effective at dampening the sound of dice rolls, and you can even use it to organize your remotes, wallets, keys, and more!

    10. A crocheted hanging chair made of 100% cotton that you can use to liven up your space. It has a simple design that'll fit in with virtually any décor, so you can go for breezy and boho ambience with some faux palm fronds or use a flannel throw to cozy it up.

    11. A pair of shoe deodorizers that'll save you from retching every time you take off your smelly kicks. Reviewers say they're a must-have for keeping their work boots and soccer cleats fresh, and appreciate that they don't fall out of their shoes or get lost like other ones they've tried.

    12. A backlit mechanical keyboard that'll refresh your typing, and/or gaming experiences. It has clicky keys for that satisfying tactile feedback, while the budget price makes it a great introductory choice if you're unsure about making the switch.

    13. A darling fountain pen that'll make you want to handwrite letters and draft charters when you use it. You'll feel way more sophisticated penning the Next Great American (Canadian?) Novel with this than if you were clacking away on your laptop keys.

    14. A travel-friendly hair dryer with a detachable nozzle that you can toss in your tote for a quick, on-the-go blowout. It's perfect if you're always scrambling to get out the door after your morning shower (or because of that extra twenty minutes of beauty sleep).

    15. A cheeky mug that'll have you taking a Freudian sip before you make another Freudian slip. Reviewers are in hysterics from the mug itself and the joke-plastered box it comes in.

    16. A pack of Rael feminine wipes that’ll help you freshen up down there when you’re on the go or just in a hurry. Reviewers love the discreet packaging, and say the fragrance-free cloths haven't irritated their most sensitive areas.

    17. An adorable hedgehog doorstop that'll brighten up your entryway — and your day whenever you see it. Reviewers say while it's perfect for propping doors open, it's also too cute to leave on the floor (I mean, there are worse problems to have, right?).

    18. And finally, a banana wine stopper that'll make sure the bubbles stay in your bubbly between toasts (don't worry, it won't turn it banana-flavoured). It’ll make a fun conversation piece while also being more effective than cling film at keeping your vino fresh.
