1. An Ikea bag coin purse that's just absolutely iconic. Forget the LV or Gucci wallet, this is really all you'll ever need.
2. A bunch of macaron boxes for decor *and* for storage! You can put tiny trinkets, jewelry, and even pills in here — oui oui, I'll take six please.
Promising review: "Just received these cute little boxes and am in love with them. Very thick and sturdy plastic but easy enough to open. These will work perfectly for filling solid perfumes and giving out as stocking stuffer gifts as I don't have to worry about it being a snug fit/lid falling off. I imagine these would also be great for pretend food for kids' playsets or for a kid's trinket box. Overall I love them, love their feel, love the colors and am very happy." —Mary
Get a set of six from Amazon for $5.99.
3. A book of 642 tiny things to draw because sometimes when boredom strikes, you need something other that your electronics to entertain you. This'll ask you to draw a garbanzo bean, a yellow polka-dot bikini, a ball of lint, and so many more random interesting things.
Former BuzzFeed Shopping writer Jonathan Mazzei says, "My girlfriend got me this book as a gift a few years ago, and it turned out to be even better than I expected! The prompts are super fun, and help you to think outside of the box even during those moments when you feel like you have no ideas. It's great to casually doodle in while passing time since you don't have to think of what to draw, but it also can be really helpful when brainstorming for creative projects. My girlfriend is a visual artist and graphic designer, and she loves using it to play around with ideas and make her think of things she never would have thought of without it. Plus, it's small and super portable! Highly recommend!"
Get it from Amazon for $9.95.
4. A Saem hydrating eye stick that you may just buy because of how cute the lil' bear is! But wait, there's way more than just the adorable packaging — it helps to reduce the appearance of dark circles, lines, and puffiness with Iceland mineral water, xylitol, moss and seaweed extract, and niacinamide.
For a top-notch experience, use after refrigeration to better help reduce puffiness. It also can help tighten the appearance of eye wrinkles if you'd prefer for them not to be as noticeable.
Promising review: "I have always had bags and dark circles under my eyes and have tried sooooo many things. I was skeptical that this would work, but oh. my. goodness. This little stick is amazing. The puffiness was gone. Dark circles, still there some but definitely not as bad. It also smells really nice and absorbs instantly. Plus, the container is cute. I highly recommend to anyone else who has tried all the things and been disappointed." —HeartsUnfold
Get it from Amazon for $9.90 (also available in a collagen version).
5. A dino nugget pillow because these were all the rage during your childhood, and honestly, they still are. Not only will it be the perfect piece of decor for your quirky home, it's so plush that you'll be cuddling it all day long — no biting though!
Promising review: "This dino chicken nugget pillow is a real Jurassic dream come true! It's the perfect cuddle companion for all the paleontologists-in-training or anyone with an insatiable appetite for comfort. Just be careful not to accidentally take a bite while you're napping, because it looks deliciously deceiving!" —LadyTee
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in four styles, two sizes, and in multipacks).
6. A lil' car mirror swinging duck accessory that'll make those weary morning drives to work a little more ~quacktastic~. Come on, I think we can all agree that you could never be angry looking at this silly lil' goose.
Promising review: "Saw it one day when I was just browsing. That’s usually dangerous I know. It’s actually heavier than I thought it was going to be, in a good way though. It’s not cheaply made. I’ve gotten a few laughs from people in other vehicles. Only side effect is if you get upset at other drivers it isn’t very intimidating when you’re giving the mad stare. LOL. I was pleased with the purchase in all." —Charles Ramsey
Get it from Amazon for $7.98 (available in 13 other animals).
7. A "Gracula" garlic crusher because what better way is there to mince garlic than with a vampire? Oh, the irony. All you have to do is insert the cloves, twist, and you're done — it can't get any simpler than this.
Promising review: "I love this little guy. I found him on a BuzzFeed list and had to have it as soon as I saw it! I’ve minced as many as five cloves in it in seconds. It’s a little tricky getting all of the garlic out once minced (I use a silicone basting brush to get most of it but I always use more than the recipe calls for anyway so it’s not a deal breaker). Cleanup is a breeze because he goes right in the dishwasher!" —Barbie
Get it from Amazon for $24.95.
8. Tonymoly's octopus-shaped scrub stick to remove whiteheads and blackheads *and* exfoliate your skin. You can just rinse it off with warm water when you're done so you don't have to constantly buy one-time-use pore strips.
Promising review: "I am always using super drying products on my face to target this annoying adult acne I now have, but that causes flaky skin. I have sensitive skin so there are only so many affordable store-bought scrubs I can use, and so far the ones I've tried don't do enough or anything at all. The FIRST TIME I used this I literally watched my pores get cleaned out and my skin wasn't irritated at all by the ingredients. The scent is very pleasant and not too strong at all I think. It seems like it will also last awhile because I really used the heck out of it the first day because it was working so well and my pores are deeply clogged. When I was done my face looked SO much better and was super smooth I was really amazed that this tiny little Tako could do that. I love this thing!" —Diane Delfino
Get it from Amazon for $8.75.
9. A set of cowboy straw toppers that'll make you want to belt out "workin' 9 to 5 🤠" because that's what you do every. single. day. You totally deserve to treat yourself to these hats that help protect the tip of your straw from germs.
10. An Uno rug to grace your floor with a +4 card (obviously the best in the deck) OR with the reverse to ward off unwanted guests — just kidding... or am I?
Promising review: "I didn’t believe it would be that good, seeing as that, it was so cheap. But to my surprise, this carpet is absolutely incredible. It’s soft, colorful, and all of my guests love it! you will not regret buying this funky carpet. I can assure you, you are not going to be disappointed. I know that’s hard to believe because you don’t know me, but trust me, you’re going to want to buy this. Believe me." —izzella
Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in three styles and two sizes).
11. A pair of dumpster fire earrings that basically say "I'm fine (not really), but seriously I'm good." Reviewers rave about how many compliments they get on 'em — don't say I didn't warn ya. Plus the backs are made with titanium and are hypoallergenic so they're perfect for my sensitive ear comrades!

12. Or a pair of cherry earrings because cherries are arguably the most aesthetically pleasing fruit and deserve to be shown off. Plus reviewers love how lightweight and comfortable these are so you can wear 'em loud and proud!
Promising review: "I have sensitive ears and only wear light earrings. These are light, were fine in my ears, and I got so many compliments. I adore them! Highly suggest!" —Emily J. Fuller

13. A dimmable duck night-light that's just so ducking adorable! You can just tap the duck wherever to adjust the brightness and it has an optional 30-minute timer so you don't need to worry about turning it off!
This light doesn't require any batteries — it's rechargeable! It comes with a USB charger.
Promising review: "I ordered this lamp because of its appearance. I didn't NEED a duck lamp...but it has totally filled a void in my life I didn't know existed. Everyone who sees it pokes it. The lamp is actually very functional. It's got a really nice set of brightness options and the glow is yellowish, which is much nicer than white in a dim/dark room. One thing that isn't mentioned in the description is that its legs are utterly floppy. It's terrific." —Literated
Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available in three styles).
14. A Nessie bookmark so you don't lose your place in your book during your TikTok break while you're scrolling through "deep ocean TikTok" — 🎶 yo ho all hands 🎶.

Promising reviews: "These are so cute!! I get so happy seeing them hanging by the door waiting to pop back down for when I leave for work. Take the car keys and it's gone. Come back from work, hang them on its tail and they stare at you with this unamused glare. I couldn't be more pleased with this purchase! They're so easy to install, just take the adhesive backing, stick it to the back of one, and stick to the wall. Then enjoy your new friend!" —Amazon Customer
Get a four-piece set from Amazon for $15.99 (also available in a six-pack that includes a monkey and baby chick).
17. A "Hell Done" digital thermometer so you can cook your steaks to your liking — rare (absolutely devious, imo), medium, or well-done.
Promising review: "This thermometer not only works perfectly, but is a great conversation starter at gatherings! I've used it a few times now and am completely satisfied with the purchase. It is accurate, and the display is super easy to read. If you buy this, make sure to read the back of the box ;)." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $21.95.
18. A suspended "floating" wine bottle holder that'll literally elevate your vino game. This mind-boggling piece of decor will definitely spark some convo during your next wine and cheese night with the besties.
Promising review: "I was actually curious if this was actually going to work and if it would look cheap, but it's well made, sturdy, and looks pretty cool. You can use other liquor bottles. Don't be fooled by the empty bottle and lack of weight. I tried full bottles of unopened wine, and it's held up really well. For the price point, you can't beat it, and you will definitely get lots of compliments!" —KGP
Get it from Amazon for $15.60 (available in six styles).
19. A mini wacky waving inflatable tube guy to add a little funk to your desk because you're tired of looking at paperclips and staplers all day.
Promising review: "I opened the package and screamed for joy! As I placed the 9-volt battery, my hands were trembling with what was going to happen next! As I turned on the wacky waving inflatable tube man, I knew I have a friend for life. Someone you can really count on cheering you up when you are feeling down. He brought me such joy I started to cry with laughter and happiness." —Robert Wurstner

20. And a desktop punching bag because sometimes your coworkers are just. so. darn. frustrating. and you need to let it all out.
21. A set of cat-themed tarot cards that'll make you either purr or hiss depending on your future outlook. If you're a beginner, that's totally fine, because these come with a guide book that'll help you set up and interpret the cards!
Promising review: "Honestly, I saw this tarot deck and thought I needed this for ha has. But man. This deck’s images are hilarious. It’s so much fun, and I felt so drawn to it as soon as it was in my hands. I am smitten over these kittens. 😍 10,000% worth the purchase!" —Kathryn Prouty
Get it from Amazon for $17.79.
22. A Grogu night-light so you can turn off the lights before going to bed and actually being able to see where you're walking instead of stubbing your toe on every piece of furniture. May the force be with you while you're trekking to the bathroom in the middle of the night.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Heather Braga ~adores~ this. She says: "I am admittedly obsessed with 'The Child' and can't get enough of him — that includes letting him reign over my bathroom at night in the form of the night-light."
Promising review: "Loving it. Needed a soft light for the bathroom, and this does the trick. Not very expensive and comes with bulb. Bonus is the cuteness level. Plus, who doesn't want Grogu watching you go to the loo?" —Adrienne H.
Get it from Amazon for $8.98 (available in four other styles).
23. A unicorn head squirrel feeder to turn those acorn lovin' animals into more majestic? terrifying? creatures. Trust me, if you're having a bad day, this is the one thing that'll get you laughing.
24. A ~Mystical Fire~ colorant so you can turn your fire into a mesmerizing light show — so magical it's like witchcraft. I don't think you could ever get bored watching these colorful flames.
P.S. don't use this if you're going to cook food over the fire!
Promising review: "Mystical Fire Colorant is amazing. For a really fun experience, get some of these for your next camping trip. As if a campfire needs improvement...but this stuff is really neat. I'd say the adults love it even more than the kids. We only used one packet and the colors were so good — seems like they lasted at least 20 minutes. There was even color left in the ashes the next day. We will never go camping again without several packs of Mystical Fire on hand." —TeNe
Get it from Amazon for $6.40.
25. An alien? snail? eyes headband to add a bit of whimsy to your skincare routine. It'll keep all your hair out of your face and it's perfect for making a "GRWM to go to bed" video.
Promising review: "I love this SO MUCH. I embrace my inner snail every time I wash my face. It's soft but not too fluffy and thick. It has a nice stretch, but it's also not too loose where I feel like it's falling. Buy some for you and your snail friends :)" —sam
Get it from Amazon for $5.99+ (available in 11 colors).
26. A dishwasher-safe unicorn pool floa*tea* infuser that is just so darn *unique-corn* and fun! Just fill the bottom of it with the loose tea leaves of your choice and let it swim around your mug. I. need. it. now.

A Girl Scouts Thin Mints seasoning blend so you can enjoy this divine, heaven-sent treat on everything you eat — not to mention year-round since Girl Scout Cookie season is coming to an end *sobs*. Sprinkle (or pour) this onto your sundaes, pancakes, overnight oats, and anything and everything else!
My colleague Emma Lord loves this stuff! Here's what she has to say about it: "I stared at this for months online before caving and buying it, and when I tell you!! It jazzes up my morning coffee in a way that makes my little '90s baby heart sing. I've also loved it on greek yogurt, oatmeal, and mug cakes. Plus when I am feeling lonely for a real Thin Mint and we're not in Girl Scout cookie season, I'll shake this on an Oreo Thin to stave off the despair."
Get it from Amazon for $4.98 (and try their s'mores seasoning blend, too!).
28. A genie lamp oil stopper/pourer that unfortunately won't pop out Will Smith no matter how hard you rub it. BUT it'll pour out the next best thing — your fave oils! When you're done using it, you can just press the lamp down to seal the bottle and keep your EVOO fresh.
Promising review: "This is functional and adorable! It does a great job at preventing oil from leaking down the side of my olive oil bottle, and it hasn't popped off while pouring." —Razzlebeedaz
Get it from Amazon for $13.90.
29. Some Goldfish-shaped magnets because you couldn't possibly say no to the 🎶 snack that smiles back 🎶. They're the perfect decoration for your fridge if it's lookin' a lil' plain or you can use it to hang up your to-do lists and meal plans.

30. Or a set of colorful sushi magnets that guests may think are a little fishy because of how real they look! They're soy cute but be careful, you're going to want to go to Sugarfish every time you visit the fridge.
And check out this creative reviewer, who used the magnets as cake toppers!
Promising review: "Hilarious and perfect for our fridge. It is a little unsettling at how real some of them look! I will be buying more colors of them. The magnets have varying strength but I think that has to do with the way the sushi is around them. They hold up an average sheet of paper or photograph just fine though!" —Katherine Storm

It has two giant pockets so you can stash all your snacks and rot on the couch until it's time for bed. Okay Strawberry Shortcake, I see you. 👀
Promising review: "Literally so perfect, very soft and comfortable. The colors are very vibrant and beautiful. If I start moving around my house doing chores, it does get a little warm, but I run warm most of the time and keep my house super cold, so it's not an issue at all!! I can't wait for the fall/winter to come because this will be a game changer!!" —Nicole Muse
