I'm not going to lie. I love being nosy and seeing other people’s Amazon hauls because it’s fun to see the random things people have been buying. A good number of the Christmas gifts I’ve purchased have been through Amazon, and already shared yesterday (I won’t share those again), so here’s what I’ve ordered from Amazon recently that HASN’T been a gift. No, these are not affiliate links, these are just things we have purchased and used ourselves! Also, prices may have changed from when I bought them because price inflation at Christmas time is REAL!
First Years Take and Toss Spill Proof Straw Cups ($2.68 for a four pack): I bought two packs of these after the kids fought over juice two days in a row and therefore spilled juice all over the floor two days in a row. This was basically a weekly occurrence in our house and I was sick of the sticky floors and yelling, so I immediately said that NEITHER of them would be drinking without a lid ever again. I quickly rage purchased 2 packs of these cups because they were cheap and I’ve purchased the sippy cup style in the past and liked them. I’m thinking I might buy another pack or two.
Non-Slip Furniture Grippers X-Protector ($9.91): I have to buy these several times a year, but basically, these go on the bottom of your furniture so that it doesn’t slide around. We have wood floors and children who like to run into the furniture, causing it to slide all around. These keep it in place and does the job pretty well. The kids like to be destructive and break all kinds of things. That is why we are very grateful for things like appliance repair service and furniture grippers! We go through a couple packs of these a year because they do tend to get worn out a bit (when we move the couch to vacuum and such), so we end up replacing them every so often.
Sharpie Permanent Markers, Ultra Fine Point, Black (6.99 for a 12 pack): I use these all the time for labeling scents and things like that for my Pink Zebra business. Can’t go wrong with Sharpie brand, right?
ArtBin Semi Satchel with Removable Dividers, Plastic Storage Case with Aqua Accents ($20.77): I am in love with this thing! I’ve been trying to get my business supplies more organized so I can have a better work flow, and this was just what I needed for my various blend bags. It’s a nice and sturdy plastic case with 4 separate compartments. I currently use 4 different size bags for my fragrances, so I store each size in its own compartment. I love this bin so much that I asked for another for Christmas, as well as for the next size up that has 8 compartments.
Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Nail Coat, Clear ($5.99): I recently started getting into ColorStreet and various other nail strips, and have heard that applying a top coat can help them stay on longer. I read a bunch of reviews, and this one had good reviews for a good price, so I got it. I haven’t tried it yet though.
Pendaflex Portable Desktop File ($10.48): Another item I needed for my business. This is a file holder that came with 5 hanging folders. Each folder contains a different set of the labels I use for my business (mailing labels, loyalty reward labels, sample labels, etc.). I chose this particular set because it was small enough to fit on my rolling cart, it was plastic, and it included folders. I wish it came with a few more folders than it did, but otherwise, I like it and suits my needs.
So that’s what I’ve been buying lately. Mostly business stuff, which is kind of boring.
Hey, I’m in my 30s now… what can I say?
