    31 Simple Home Office Upgrades From Walmart That Make A Huge Difference

    Your back is begging you to retire the kitchen chair from your WFH regimen.

    1. A chair massage cushion so you can soothe your backache that usually shows up around midday, without even pausing on answering your emails. Now that's multitasking.

    2. A standing desk converter because it's good for your back and joints to get up in the middle of the day and stretch. With this, you can give your lower back some relief even if you still need to work while doing it.

    3. And a comfort mat to support your feet and knees while you're standing at your desk. Look at you — working, stretching your back, protecting your legs. Is there anything you can't do?

    4. A foot bike for under your desk, so you can master the art of multitasking and get in some cardio as you handle the day's paperwork. At this point, you may as well refer to WFH as WOFH (working out from home).

    5. A time-marked water bottle that'll remind you to stay hydrated while you're in ~the zone.~

    6. A mesh desk organizer that'll hold everything you need during the workday so you don't have to waste 15 minutes searching for your favorite pen. And you simply cannot start the task at hand without your favorite pen (I understand completely).

    7. A light therapy lamp that mimics the benefits of sunlight while you're stuck inside working during dark and cloudy days. The lamp delivers 10,000 lux of light, which can help improve focus, regulate sleep, boost energy, and lift your spirits.

    8. An ergonomic desk chair because as you are already well aware, it's time to retire the kitchen chair.

    9. A clip-on fan so you can stay calm, cool, and collected when work starts heating up.

    10. A folding desk in case you're short on space and need to convert your home office back into your living room when the workday is over.

    11. A desktop drawer unit for when your actual desk drawer reaches full capacity and can no longer keep up with your workload. The grind never stops. 😩

    12. A screen cleaner kit with a microfiber cloth, spray, and wipes, because maybe you haven't cleaned your computer screen in like...ever. No shame in that — I'm typing from a smudgy screen as we speak.

    13. A dimmable desk lamp that's easy on the eyes, giving you juust the right amount of light you need. Oh, and there's also a USB port so you don't have to unplug and plug and then unplug again... you know the drill (the very annoying drill).

    14. A lap desk because working from home can mean working from your bed or couch. Just saying.

    15. A desk mat that'll transform any surface into an efficient workspace. It's large enough to accommodate a laptop, mouse, and keyboard, and is made from faux leather so it can stand up to whatever your workday puts it through.

    16. A dry-erase calendar board to keep you on top of your Zoom meetings, deadlines, and daily work reminders. Might as well throw in some extra fun doodling while you're at it. Why not? It's your office!

    17. A memory foam seat cushion because maybe your desk chair hasn't been the kindest to your back...or your tushy. 😖

    18. A two-pack of Dust-Off spray to clean your keyboard in case you've been eating your lunch right at your computer and are now suffering the crumb-sequences.

    19. A tropical-themed desk calendar so you can physically count down the days 'til vacation...and keep track of your meetings, of course.

    20. A white-noise machine to increase productivity and block out any household sounds that might distract you from getting your work done in peace. As you know from two years of WFH, it's reeeally hard to concentrate when someone else is banging pots and pans in the kitchen.

    21. A heated ceramic mug with a charging coaster so your coffee will stay warm, even if you got lost in your overflowing inbox and forgot about it for two hours. Bonus: You can also use the coaster to charge your phone!

    22. An oil diffuser because the stress at work won't stand a chance against the relaxing aroma of eucalyptus and lavender. Deep breaths. 😌

    23. A pair of cute blue-light-filtering glasses to help protect your eyes from the harsh effects of staring at a screen and, might I add, keep you looking pretty stylish.

    24. A file sorter because the overstuffed folder holding all your paperwork is basically defeating its own purpose at this point. There's no use even trying to go through that thing.

    25. A phone and tablet stand in case you want to FaceTime your bestie during work hours...don't worry, I won't tell your boss. ;)

    26. A mini humidifier because it's almost allergy season and a stuffy nose is way too distracting for us to get any work done.

    27. A braided fabric extension chord with three outlets for those of us who only have one accessible outlet. Plus, it's pretty attractive for an extension chord (never thought I'd say that but here we are).

    28. A drawer organizer that has *wheels* in case your home office tends to move from room to room.

    29. A cascading wall organizer if your desk is shockingly close to being overcrowded and it's affecting your work performance. I get it — you can't possibly get any work done with all that clutter around, and that alone should be a valid reason for an extension. But also just get an organizer.

    30. A set of seven drawer organizer storage bins so you know exactly where your *good* pen is. Always.

    31. A memory foam-cushioned mouse pad to keep your wrist comfortable while you click and drag...and click...and drag...all. Day. Long.
