    $25 Is All You Need If You Wanna Grab Yourself One Of These 47 Cool & Practical Things

    We love a budget-friendly treasure!

    1. A tub of powdered peanut butter you can add to everything from popcorn to your morning smoothie. It won't get gloppy or sticky like it's spreadable cousin, but don't fret — it's still got plenty of delish nutty flavour (reviewers say it tastes just like the real thing).

    2. A pack of all-natural wipes that'll help you keep your pet's trotters and tushy in tip-top shape. They're unscented and hypoallergenic, which means they're gentle enough for use tip to tail.

    3. A set of budgeting envelopes so you can keep a closer eye on your stacks. To make things even easier, they're waterproof, tear-proof, and colour-coded, so you'll always know how much dough you've got each month.

    4. A set of slate plant labels that'll help keep your leafy babies organized and tidy (without leaching plastic-y chemicals into your soil). All you need is a bit of chalk to track what you're growing!

    5. A double-sided extraction tool so you can push out any buildup hiding inside your pores. If you have particularly *sticky* blackheads, trying giving your face a steam beforehand (those puppies will slide right out).

    6. A mini broom and dust pan set so you can tidy tiny messes without needing to whip out your whole cleaning kit. The silicone-rimmed dustpan is super deep, so dust and dirt will stay contained.

    7. A pack of rainbow charging cables that are both fast charge-enabled *and* extra durable. Reviewers say the bright colours make 'em easy to spot in the dark, so you won't have to rifle around to find your device at night.

    8. A Himalayan salt-filled light bulb that'll transform your fave lamp into a therapeutic one. It's easy to swap out and even comes with a dimmer switch for when you really need to chill out.

    9. A double-ended fabric razor so you can de-pill your fave sweater without damaging its fibres. It's completely manual and even has a built-in lint brush, so you can keep all your fabrics free of dust and pet hair, too.

    10. A protective shoe spray that'll create a snow-, sleet-, salt-, and slush-repellant coating on your footwear. The mix of beeswax and silicone will prevent winter weather from ruining your fave boots (not to mention make them easier to clean, too).

    11. A Wet Brush detangler if knots are your nemesis. Its wide bristles make it extra gentle on tresses (no breakage here!), and great for distributing conditioning treatments and masks, too.

    12. A set of soft silicone straws that'll make you wonder why you ever used plastic ones in the first place. Not only will they be gentler on your gums and teeth (unlike stainless steel versions), but they also come with a handy cleaning brush to get rid of any gross buildup inside.

    13. An a-moo-sing tabletop vacuum that'll make all your tiny messes disappear. Reviewers say it's strong enough to pick up bigger crumbs (like popcorn kernels), making it the perfect addition to your WFH setup.

    14. A set of non-slip rug grippers if you're sick of constantly tripping on the edge of your carpet. It'll also pull double duty to keep corners from curling, so there will be less chance of snagging them with your toe.

    15. A set of picture-hanging Command Strips that'll save you from knocking another hole in your wall. Each pair is strong enough to hold up to eight pounds, so you won't have to sacrifice your style in favour of physics.

    16. A brush cleansing mat if your makeup tools are too full of gunk to use anymore. It's got suction cup backing to keep it locked in place while you're scrubbing, with seven types of ridges to help dislodge everything stuck in your bristles.

    17. A trio of mini containers that'll pop open in a literal pinch (and are just as easy to close, too). They're perfect for small odds and ends or as a treat case for your fave furry pal.

    18. A silicone drain cover that'll snag your shower dregs before they can cause major clogs. Unlike its flat counterparts, this one can fit easily over pop-up drains, too.

    19. An anti-chafing powder that'll keep your butt and bits dry and comfortable, no matter what you put them through. It absorbs sweat, fights friction, and contains calamine powder to help soothe any and all skin irritations.

    20. A sturdy tabletop tripod for all your content creation needs. It won't tip over mid-photo and even comes with a wireless remote so you can hit pause, play, or rewind while you're shooting a video.

    21. A bottle of plant food that's specially formulated to give your indoor plants lots of TLC. It's incredibly easy to use and, best of all, works on ALL plant types so you won't have to play the guessing game.

    22. A petite razor that won't take up all your bathroom real estate. It has five blades and a handy moisturizing ribbon (just like its full-size counterparts) with none of the bulk, making it perfect for tucking into your travel bag.

    23. A petite bag light so you'll be able to find your keys even when the sun goes down. The soft silicone loop won't scratch up your fave handbags, and you can even set the light to flash if you're ever in a pickle.

    24. A tiny massage ball so you can knead away cramps and sore spots. Reviewers love that it's small enough to tuck between toes, too, which means pain won't have anywhere to hide.

    25. A grassy lil' drying pad that'll help keep your dishes upright while they air-dry. The silicone fronds will stop condensation from building inside your bottles and glassware, so you won't have to polish away the water stains.

    26. A trio of sleek webcam covers that'll fit onto all your devices and protect you from would-be hackers. They'll never make your device feel clunky and can be slid open at the drop of a hat when you wanna make use of your camera.

    27. A pack of shoulder covers that'll keep the dust off your suits, coats, and dresses. They'll also keep delicate fabrics safe from getting snagged on hangers or other items in your closet.

    28. A pack of blotting linens that'll sop up excess oil and help keep your bangs from turning into a greasy mess. They're silky-soft and infused with willow bark to deliver some extra anti-breakout power (plus, they're extra gentle on sensitive skin).

    29. An electric milk frother if you simply can't live without your fave foamy bev. It's lightweight and powerful enough to whip up plant-based milks, too!

    30. Or a manual milk frother if you'd rather whip things up the old fashioned way. And on the days you're craving some toasty foam, you'll be glad to know this bb is microwave-safe.

    31. A cute AirPod case that'll protect your earbuds from bumps and scratches. It can be easily snapped onto a key ring, so you can keep 'em on-hand at all times (and maybe quit losing them every five seconds).

    32. A pack of glow-in-the-dark adhesive stars that'll transport you to a galaxy far, far away. The best part? They're invisible during the day, which means they won't clash with your decor.

    33. A pack of pH-balanced wipes that'll calm any inflammation below the belt. They're free of all potential irritants (like chlorine, artificial fragrances, and dyes) so you can comfortably swipe whenever you need a lil' dose of calm.

    34. A bottle of cult-fave Mike's Hot Honey that'll ~spice~ up everything from ice cream to pizza. Reviewers love the floral notes and say the heat level is totally manageable, too (even for people who are sensitive to spice).

    35. A silk scrunchie that won't snag or bend your strands. Reviewers love that it's strong enough to hold thicker manes in place all day long (even during exercise) without ever causing breakage like regular hair elastics.

    36. A 2-in-1 silicone whisk that's basically the adult version of a Transformer. A quick twist and you can turn your whisk into a flexible spatula that'll handle delicate items (like fish) with basically zero effort.

    37. A pack of silicone toe sleeves that'll protect your toes from bonks, bruises, and blisters. Ingrown nails won't get smooshed by your shoes, and other sore spots will actually get a chance to heal (instead of getting rubbed raw by your footwear).

    38. A set of stainless steel whiskey stones that'll cool down your drink without diluting your fave spirits. They'll stay colder a lot longer than boring, regular ice, so you won't have to rush through your cocktail.

    39. An NSFW edition of Exploding Kittens that'll be instantly recognizable to any avid boardgamers. It has the same rules as the original, with the fun addition of a few (okay, more than a few) naughty additions. Bring on the boob wizards!

    40. A page holder if you wanna give your achy hands a break while you're flying through your reading list. It'll help reduce strain, making it great for people with carpal tunnel or other mobility issues (or anyone, really).

    41. An LED bike wheel light that'll help keep you safe during nighttime rides. Unlike front or back lights which can leave the rider a bit vulnerable, these will make sure you (and your sweet cycle) stand out wherever the trail takes you.

    42. A pack of hydrating sheet masks for when the cold weather has sapped every drop of moisture from your skin. Reviewers love that they noticed an immediate improvement in dry, flaky patches (without any irritation, either).

    43. A totally bananas wine stopper that'll keep your fave vino fresh 'til the last sip. It'll form an airtight seal around the rim so it'll even keep bubbly from fizzing out before you get to the final drop.

    44. A collapsible popcorn maker that'll give you perfect, fluffy kernels in minutes — no oil necessary. Reviewers say it can make enough for two people at once, which means you won't have to fight with your roomie over who gets the first batch.

    45. A pair of Trader Joe's Everything But the Bagel seasoning blends you can sprinkle on all your favourite foods — no bagel necessary. Reviewers say it tastes ~divine~ on everything from buttered popcorn to roast chicken, so feel free to get experimental.

    46. A double-wheeled ab roller if you're looking to carve out a serious six-pack. Reviewers love the added stability of the extra wheel, which helps to prevent injury and ensure they can get their sweat on in a safe way.

    47. And lastly, a leakproof tumbler with a straw big enough to suck up smoothies (or even boba tea). It's got a cork sleeve that'll protect your fingers from whatever's inside and is made of ultra-durable Tritan plastic that won't shatter if it gets dropped.
