Weird Stuff on Amazon (you can give as gifts)
24
items Funky and trendy, weird and quirky… this is a list of fun things I've seen on Amazon lately. Little trinkets that don't cost very much you can give loved ones and friends as gifts for any occasion. These items are each for a a specific person with a unique personality. For example, give the Costco receipt scarf to someone who is obsessed with Costco. Or give the Xanax candle to someone who is always freaking out over something. For each of these suggestions, I bet you will think ‘I know exactly who would love this!!’ Even if it is yourself :) I'm always adding to the list, so check back later!

Yes, you saw this right. A cool scarf that looks like a real receipt from Costco. Made from super soft fleece! This brand has scarves that look like receipts from Target, CVS, and more!
Costco Receipt Scarf
Oh, the look on his face! This is exactly the way I feel when I get to bed. This would be cute in a kid's room as a nightlight. It has an ‘off’ timer and three levels of brightness.
Dimmable Light
You can give this as a baby shower gift. Everyone will have a laugh! For the baby who already has everything. And they aren't even born yet. :)
Burrito Baby Blanket
100% in love. This candle is actually high quality, made with beeswax, and smells like sandalwood. Good for promoting relaxation and good sleep. This is on my list (for a certain someone) as a stocking stuffer this year.
Xanax Candle
There are lots of gag coasters out there. Overly designed with jokes and loud pictures on them. I love this cute wooden snail because of it's simplicity. It actually fits in with different home decor styles, and looks really modern but quirky and kitschy. I love it!
Wooden Snail Coasters
Doesn't everyone need a fat seal on their sofa? There are three sizes, ranging from 12" to 24" in length. I love him.
Chubby Seal Pillow
Yes, it's soap, and it's handmade in the USA by real people. Not in a factory. Glycerin based soap that looks and smells like cinnamon buns. Kinda pricey at $16 each, but worth every penny when you give this to a loved one who is addicted to cinnamon buns!
Cinnamon Bun Soap
For a Star Wars nerd… Yoda is holding the books up with the force. Really cool!
Yoda Bookend
Yes, this is a BPA-free silicone Manatee Tea Infuser. You're welcome .

Give this to a beloved wine-o in your life. It looks really cool, and it is actually a well made opener! Usually gag items like this are junk, but this works well.
Bat Corkscrew
If you've never seen this before, click to the second picture and look very closely. There is a message hidden in the pattern! This would make a great gift for a grumpy co-worker or a sweary friend :)
Rude Tumbler
I don't have this, but it is highly rated on Amazon. People love this! and now it's on my wish list. Roasting marshmallows any time of day, all year long… seems like a good idea to me!
Indoor Marshmallow Roaster
If you want to give money or a gift card to someone who likes games and puzzles, this is the box for you! It will take them a while to open it, and they have a cool keepsake for later. It can be used as a jewelry box or something afterwards. Also, it is really nicely made! Made from solid Beech wood, each piece is polished and durable.
Puzzle Box Money Holder
For a handyman or handywoman! This will make them smile, especially if they make pizza at home all the time. It's actually great quality with a stainless steel blade. And you can remove the ‘guard’ for easy cleaning.
Pizza Cutter
A weird & perfect addition to a teenager's bedroom! They can use it to ‘nest’ for reading or scrolling. Or they can sleep all wrapped around it. Comes in three different sizes, and it has a zipper so you can add stuffing or wash the cover.
Baguette Body Pillow
Just a little trinket you can give to a co-worker to congratulate them on a job well done. Do you remember this meme? This makes me actually laugh out loud.
3D Printed Trophy
You use this empty box, and wrap your real gift inside! Best given to parents with small children. They will be utterly confused until they open it up!
Empty Box
This cool projector has 33 different ‘scenes’ it can cast onto your ceiling and walls. So cool! It also has different white noises it can play so you can relax and fall asleep.
Northern Lights Projector
Sorry (not sorry) for a second lamp/light on this list, but I could not resist. This lamp is so cool! You can charge the battery, fold it up (like you would fold a book together) and travel with it. A cute gift for someone who loves to read. I think we call them ‘bookish’ now??
BookLamp
Seriously, if I saw this in someone's home, I would be so tempted to flip through it! Get this for a friend who loves Trivia night, or for yourself so you can ask your know-it-all friend a bunch of questions they can't answer :) you're welcome.
Irresistible Coffee Table Book
It's fun to add colorful socks to your outfit! And here you can get fun socks showing off your favorite breakfast cereals. A little out of left field, we all know someone who would love these! This seller on Amazon has socks, belts and hats all featuring cereals, snack foods, soda brands, and popular TV shows.
Cereal Socks
Doesn't everyone need a Majic 8 Ball? How else would you confidently make important life decisions? I got one for my son several years ago for Christmas, and we still use it if we really can't decide something. So fun! And love the retro vibe :)
Magic 8 Ball
Turns on with motion, so you don't have to turn on any bright lights to use the bathroom in the middle of the night :) Maybe those boys will aim better too!
Toilet Bowl Night Light.
This puzzle is quite difficult… the edges aren't straight and the pieces are pretty much the same color. The pieces are made of acrylic so they are transparent, and it's made right in the USA. A great gift for a puzzler who is up for a challenge :)
