1. A variety pack of Mr. Clean Magic Erasers because life is messy, but cleanup doesn’t have to be. This six-piece multi-pack includes two each of the bathroom, kitchen, and extra-durable versions, so you’ll be prepared for literally anything. No matter the mess — or where that mess is — just grab one of these, wet it, squeeze it out, and get scrubbing. Bam. Gone.
2. A set of glass meal prep containers so you know you’ll always have something delicious waiting for you when you need it. Each of the five containers in this set has two compartments apiece, making them perfect for a main and a side; they’re also microwave- and dishwasher-safe, and include snap-shut, leak-proof lids.
3. An aluminum laptop stand that’ll keep your computer from overheating and help out with any electronics-related aches and pains you might have. Vented to prevent laptops from getting too hot, this lightweight, portable stand is also built with ergonomics in mind to keep you comfy while you work. Say goodbye to those carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms!
4. A bottle of powerful wrinkle release spray because it sure as heck beats going through all the trouble of yanking out an unwieldy ironing board every time you realize your pants have on, uh... had a rough one. A spritz of this stuff and a tug on the fabric to straighten everything out will go a long, long way towards making you presentable in no time flat.
5. A pack of 30 anti-fog glasses cleaner wipes to make sure your vision always stays clear — literally. Fogged-up glasses can be a problem even at the best of times, but it’s especially prevalent in these days of vigilant mask-wearing (source: me, it’s me — my glasses are constantly fogging up from a combination of the weather and my mask). A quick wipe with one of these little cleaners, however, will not only remove fingerprints and other smudges but also bestow upon your spectacles some anti-fog prevention. Clouds, begone!
6. An extendable, heavy-duty duster so you can finally do something about that annoying cobweb that’s been stuck up in the corner of your ceiling for, like, months. The handle of this pick from the geniuses at Swiffer stretches out to a full six feet — a boon for shorties with no reach, like yours truly! — while the duster head itself *actually* traps dust instead of just spreading it around.
7. A bottle of Shout's most advanced stain remover spray that will work real live miracles on set-in stains, finally rescuing your favorite-but-currently-unwearable shirt from its tomato sauce-induced purgatory. Just spray some of this unique gel formula on the stain and then leave it alone for a bit — up to a whopping seven days. The next time you throw the item in the wash, voila! A stain-free piece will emerge, just like that!
8. A bottle of highly affordable, highly effective dry shampoo because sometimes, you just don’t have time for a full wash. Spritz on some of this stuff at the roots of your hair, let it sit for a few minutes, massage it through, and then brush your mane out. It’ll get rid of any greasies you may have accumulated and it smells delightfully of coconut, jasmine, and peaches. What’s not to love?
9. A pair of lidded ice cube trays for making sure you’ve got perfectly chilled beverages without the mess or the pain. These trays from Oxo include lids to prevent spillage — but the real magic trick is this: The trays and lids are designed in such a way that you can release only the cubes you need at any given time, keeping the rest safe in the tray for a later drink. Neat-o!
10. A Roomba so you can outsource that most dreaded of household chores — vacuuming — to the vacuum itself. This Wi-Fi-connected lil' guy uses smart sensors to help it navigate around your home, sucking up anything it encounters along the way, and it’ll even take care of its own recharging, docking itself to top up its battery after running for 90 minutes.
11. A bottle of Lime-A-Way cleaner that’ll remove even the worst lime, rust, and mineral stains. If you have hard water, you may have resigned yourself to those weird deposits and residues just, y’know, permanently existing in your shower and sink. But with this powerful cleaner, you can finally live the lime-free life you didn't even know was possible. And hey, anything that makes cleaning easier and cuts down on the time spent doing it is worth its weight in proverbial gold, am I right?
12. A big ol’ pack of sticky lint rollers because if you’ve got pets, you’re gonna need something to keep their fur off your pants, your coat, your sofa, your… well, you get the idea.
13. A portable power bank to make sure your phone and other devices always have juice, no matter where you are. This little gadget holds enough power to keep a tablet running for an additional 28 hours, or a smartphone for up to 77 hours (wowzers!). And with two USB-A ports, it even lets you split all that power between multiple devices at a time, if you want.
14. A packable tote so you’ll never be caught without a reusable shopping bag again. This handy bag folds up into a tiny package so small, you can tuck it right inside your purse, your backpack, or even your pocket, so whenever you need to make a last-minute stop at the store, you’ll always have something to carry your groceries home in.
15. A seatback trash can and tissue box holder for your car, because your beloved automobile deserves better than to have discarded wrappers, old receipts, and empty water bottles strewn all over its floor. This pick from Turtle Wax is both super useful and super space-efficient — it straps to the back of the front seat, keeping your car clutter-free, and even includes a water bottle holder.
16. A pair of blue-light-filtering glasses that'll give your tired peepers a break from the strain of our constantly plugged-in world. If you spend a lot of time in front of your computer, these specs will cut down on the amount of blue light you're exposed to, which in turn might help you sleep better and eliminate headaches caused by (ouch) stressed-out eyeballs.
17. An excellent yet affordable bidet attachment from Bio Bidet, so you can treat your tush right when you're all done taking care of business. This sleek, easily installed pick is totally hydraulic, so if you don’t have an electrical outlet near your toilet, you can still experience the joys of a bidet. Once you do, you’ll never go back. Trust me.
18. A reusable coffee pod for your Keurig, so you can brew any coffee you want — not just the ones that already come in K-Cup form. Compatible with 1.0 and 2.0 Keurig models, this little pod can be filled with any ground coffee you like. It’s also dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. Your mornings will never be the same again.
19. Some bra extenders that’ll make your too-tight bands ~actually fit~. This pack includes three of the little doohickeys; all you need to do is attach them to the hook end of your bra, and voilà! Inches of extra breathing space — literally. Life is too short to put up with the discomfort of ill-fitting bras.
20. An oven liner because who has time to clean their entire oven every time something drips? With this guard slipped over the bottom rack, you can be sure the bottom of your oven is always drip-proof and free of little burned bits. It’s easy to pull out and rinse when necessary — and once it’s dry, you can just pop it back in. Easy!
21. A bottle of incredibly effective carpet stain remover from Bissell that's a must for pet owners — or anyone who’s just a little clumsy. As someone who is both (hi there, fellow pet-owning klutzes!), I always, always keep a bottle or two of this stuff around. It works equally well on cat messes and coffee spills, and it gets the job done in literal seconds.
22. A stick of blister-preventing, anti-friction balm to save your feet from a fate worse than...well, maybe not death, but certainly extreme discomfort. Whether your sandal straps chafe or your sneakers rub uncomfortably against a bunion or two, an application of this little twist-up stick might help ease your pain.
23. An Instant Pot Duo because no kitchen is complete without one these days. This ubiquitous, seven-in-one appliance not only pressure cooks, but also slow cooks, sautés, makes rice and yogurt, steams veggies and other foods, and keeps everything warm if it finishes cooking before you’re ready to eat. There’s a reason this massively useful item has basically taken over the at-home culinary landscape.
24. A three-piece mesh router system that’ll boost the internet signal in your home in ways you wouldn’t believe. No need to suffer weird dead zones scattered throughout your abode; a good mesh router like this one will extend and strengthen the Wi-Fi signal so that it reaches *everywhere*.
25. A set of Wonder Hangers to truly maximize your closet space and supercharge your organizational powers. This neat tool cascades your clothes, allowing you to fit up to five hangers worth of items into the rod space of just a single hanger. Sorcery? Not quite, but close!
26. A weekly meal planner pad so you’ll never have one of those “Ugh, I just don’t know what to have for dinner” days again. This super cute planner pad has space for you to keep track of your meals for every day of the week, along with a handy (and detachable!) shopping list section, so you can build your grocery list as you go.
27. A roll-out fridge caddy that’ll keep your refrigerator organized and everything in it accessible. Have you ever lost track of something in there and failed to unearth it until long past its… uh…edible lifespan? Well, no more! This caddy will corral all your groceries and negate the need to rummage around in the back for forgotten items.
28. A box of Mighty Patch Invisible+ acne patches for sucking the gunk right out of your zits. Hydrocolloid patches are a godsend for those of us who battle zits on the regular (*raises hand*) — and these particular patches are super thin and flexible while still packing all the sebum-sucking power of the original version you know and love.
29. A tub of multifunctional cleansing paste sure to get just about anything sparkling — even the things you didn’t think you actually had to clean. Use it on pots and pans! Tackle soap scum in your bathroom with it! Get those water stains off of your stainless-steel appliance with it! Clean your sink (because yep, your sink needs a regular scrub, too) with it! Reviewers say there’s almost nothing it can’t clean — and the difference between the before and after is often visibly noticeable.
30. A Mudbuster pet paw cleaner that’ll keep your pet’s lil' feet clean *and* prevent them from tracking gunk all over your floors after they come inside from their walk. The top of this cup is equipped with soft silicone bristles that work gentle wonders when it comes to removing mess from paws and claws — just fill the cup with warm water, insert your furry pal’s paws into the top, twist a few times, and remove for instantly clean feet.
31. And a solid odor neutralizer in a handy jar, so you can easily and discretely eliminate any unwanted scents that might be plaguing your bathroom, or your closet, or your car, or... wherever, really. Open the jar when you need it; close it up when you don’t. Congratulations! A stank-free home can finally be yours.
