    26 Things From Target That'll Have You Thinking, "Yep, I Should've Bought This Weeks Ago"

    Don't let another day pass by without a sleek and effective electric toothbrush.

    1. A Quip electric toothbrush that has a two-minute vibration pattern that lets you know when you've brushed the dentist-recommended amount of time. And it has the decency to look good while doing it — something not many other toothbrushes can boast about.

    2. A pair of microfiber hair wraps with a built-in loop for easy fastening, so it doesn't go tumbling off as it dries your strands with ease.

    3. A set of two color-changing smart light bulbs with a rainbow of hues that will help you perfectly curate the vibe in your space.

    4. A rechargeable electric foot file to help you keep those tootsies comfortably smooth without spending a pretty penny getting regular pedicures.

    5. A wire lid organizer so you can fit all of your unwieldy cookware in your tiny kitchen cabinets, no sweat. Getting one of these is literally the only reason I don't lose it every time I need to find a lid for a specific pot.

    6. A faucet filtration system because opening the fridge, only to find that filtered pitcher empty, is a bummer. Forget about that — you have fresh water from the spout now!

    7. A Vera Bradley and Coleman collab cooler backpack so you can enjoy the last of summer with the perfect car snacks or picnic in tow in a hands-free bag — so much better than a bulky hard-shelled cooler.

    8. A 30-piece kitchen utensil set to ensure you always have *just* the tool you need for any cooking job. Remember when you decided to grate your own cheese last week and then realized, mid-recipe, that you didn't have a grater? Never again.

    9. A pair of Beats Studio3 over-ear headphones with active noise cancelation that can help you tune out and relax during a humdrum WFH day, long plane ride, or anything in between.

    10. A tube of Black Girl Sunscreen, because sun protection is the ultimate form of skincare, and even if you haven't been on top of using sunscreen before, starting to apply it daily now is better than never! It's SPF 30 and will keep your skin safe from the sun's rays *without* leaving a white cast behind.

    11. A Mr. Coffee iced coffee maker so you can ditch the hot stuff in favor of an icy glass of heaven every morning (without spending $5 at a coffee shop).

    12. A lemon-print comfort mat, because — despite how much you might wish it — dirty dishes will never just stop showing up in your sink. But at least you have this cheery mat, which will help keep your feet comfortable while scrub-a-dub-dubbing.

    13. A two-tier lazy Susan so you can *actually* reach all of your spices and condiments without having to get shoulder-deep in the pantry like usual.

    14. A bottle of lavender-scented shea body lotion to keep your skin nice and hydrated. Especially with winter coming, it's time to acquire a vat of a lotion you love that'll last you through the season.

    15. A packet of dishwasher cleaner tablets, because if the device you use to clean your dishes isn't actually clean itself...truly, what's the point?

    16. A Takeya Actives stainless steel water bottle with a screw-top spout lid that ensures that it's always leak-free, no matter how much you throw it around in your bag. I love mine! It holds just enough water to stay hydrated throughout the day, and avoiding single-use plastic water bottles just feels great.

    17. A reliable external battery so you're never stuck without juice. It has two ports, so you can charge multiple devices at once. The amount of times an external battery has saved my tuchus is astonishing.

    18. A Mr. Clean Magic Eraser that you can use in practically every room of the house, to great effect. Pick up a four-pack of these easy-to-use sponges for shining up your bathroom fixtures, kitchen appliances, walls, and even your white sneakers!

    19. A drawer utensil organizer, because it's probably time to replace the one you got for your first-ever apartment — you know, the one that's currently cracked, stained, and who knows what else.

    20. An extendable drying rack that's much better-looking than your rusty old wire one and will be more functional in your space, to boot. Plus, it has a spout, so any excess water will go directly back into the sink, instead of leaking over the sides and making your countertop all gross.

    21. A weekly planner to keep your days organized and to-do list on track. And because it has write-in dates, you can feel free to only use it for months that are truly busy and not let any pages go unused, the way you might with a normal calendar.

    22. A classic Swiffer kit with wet and dry cloths that's so iconic, it really needs no introduction. If you haven't tried this little wonder yet, all I can say is that you're missing out. It's so easy to reach for the Swiffer to clean up little messes as they come up, without having to get a full bucket and mop situation going. Truly, nothing else lives up to the pure cleaning efficiency of a Swiffer.

    23. A Scrub Daddy, because hand washing any non-dishwasher-safe items that have piled in your sink will be much easier with this texture-changing sponge, that works both for tough scrubbing and gentle washing — and whose grin doubles as a utensil cleaner.

    24. A toilet cleaning gel stamp for anyone whose least favorite cleaning task is scrubbing the john. Now, if you can muster the strength to stamp a gel pack into your potty, you can check "clean toilet" off your to-do list for almost two weeks.

    25. A little alarm clock because if you're anything like me, sometimes the phone alarm just doesn't cut it. Or, um, you forget to charge your phone, it dies, and your alarm never goes off. This alarm clock will never let you down like that.

    26. A stovetop cleaner that, with just a few sprays and swipes, will help keep your glass cooktop looking as shiny as the day you got it.
