    5. A two-pack of toothbrushes that aren’t like regular toothbrushes; they’re ~cool~ toothbrushes. The bristles are ten times thinner than most other toothbrushes and as fine as human hair at the tip. That has to be good right?

    6. A 48-pack of these Miracle-Gro indoor plant spikes that continuously feed your plant friends fertilizer for up to two months so they stay nourished. These are ideal for the accidental plant serial killers who just want their plants to live (me).
