My July 4th Orders
We're having family over for the 4th, so here's what I have scooped up for my July 4th gathering :)
SHUT THE FRONT DOOR! 5 stars with over 1k reviews. I just ordered this, so don't have personal experience with it yet - I will update here after we receive it and use it. What a deal!!!!
TRAUSI Instant Read Meat Thermometer, Digital
We use to buy some cheapo chairs when we needed extra seating, but now we buy these. They are comfy, sturdy (Uncle Joe is a big dude and he fits in one of these comfortably), and they don't rust. I have only bought the grey ones, but I am thinking we need some in fun colors this year!
Best Choice 2 Adjustable Steel Mesh Zero Gravity Chairs
If you are a Yeti person like me, THIS! I only grabbed two - one for beer and one for wine. How friggin cute are these!!!
YETI Beverage/Ice Bucket, 21 Colors, Holds 6 Longnecks or 3 Wine Bottles
Adding this one because it is on sale! We all know Yeti prices can be high, but their performance and durability is unmatched. Grabbing this one while the discount is on!
20% OFF! YETI Hopper M Series Backpack Soft Cooler
The one we chose was “Your opinion wasn't in the recipe” because everyone wants to tell the person grilling how to do it! HA!
*multiple designs* 100% Cotton Black Funny Aprons for Men
Holy wow. This set has IT ALL! We really only needed a set of tongs and a spatula, but this has things we didn't even know we needed. Just found and ordered this one, so will update with a real life review after we use it. So excited about this one!
35PCS Griddle Accessories Kit for Blackstone
We always order some funny, weird, cool tshirts for our guests. Here is what we got this year. And they are on sale! Woot Woot!
Tipsy Elves Men's Patriotic 4th of July Tee
Don't forget the pups! I picked this one because my poor baby is terrified of fireworks so he has to go inside and take his calming meds before the fireworks start. This one has fireworks as the pattern, so I feel like this is the way he can enjoy that aspect of the 4th.
USA Flag Dog Bandana - 4th of July Pet Scarf
Aren't these fun?!!?!? We are using these outside at our back walkway for our 4th gathering. I like these because they are on theme, but not the typical pattern.
4th of July Patriotic Paper Lanterns 10PCS
Fun for the kids!!!! We will put these on just after dinner and then the kids can see them glow when we watch the fireworks. Added bonus - you see your kid's arm glowing so they are easier to find in the crowd!
Awinmay 80PCS Luminous 4th of July Tattoos
Instead of buying little gifts for all of the guests, I get fun cups for everyone to use at my party and then take home. Check my other listing for the name tags for the cups so everyone keeps track of their drinks!
Skylety 30 Pcs 4th of July Plastic Cups 13.5oz
Hear me out! I toyed with stickers for the drink tags, but all I can think is how they slip off when the drink sweats. I didn't want to spend a ton on drink tags, so I went with these. Cost effective - yup! I put a sharpie down next to these and guests can write their name on the tag (or maybe I will write them ahead of time) and they just put the string around their straw. ****this is for the drink cups with lids that I posted previous to this.
120 Pcs Red White Navy Star Gift Tags
If you've read my other listings, I go for something in theme but not spot on. I love these!!! On brand and a little elevated, but not the same thing everyone else has.
75 Pcs American Flag Party Plates & Napkins
These are clutch for the kids. I have noticed some kids are ok with the plates, but most drop food on the ground when trying to carry the plates the adults use. These really help the kiddos carry their own food and not spill it on the ground!
100pcs 4th July Patriotic Paper Food Trays
Same day delivery on the clear value pack. 240 pieces and these are durable! They won't snap when someone tries to cut their burger with a fork (ya know a lot of ppl want their burgers without bread these days!)
Glad Disposable Cutlery Set - 240 Clear Plastic Utensils
Have the kids color a tablecloth! Not only can you use it, it will keep the kids busy for while :P
Patriotic 4th of July Giant Coloring Tablecloth
Instead of going with the typical stars and stripes tablecloths, I went solids. The lines on the stars and stripes never line up with my various table sizes and they end up looking a mess! Solid colors for the win!!!!
12 Pack 4th of July Red White Blue Tablecloths
DO NOT FORGET THESE! I forgot these last year, oops. These have a light scent, but really repel insects! 30 hours of burn, so they will last all day and all night for your gathering.
OFF! Backyard Citronella Candle, 8 oz, 2 Pack
If you want something that lasts longer than candles, grab this bug zapper. You can use it on the patio or out in the backyard. The zaps aren't intense when a bug gets inside (I hate that loud zap noise!).
Bug Zapper Outdoor Mosquito Killer 4200V
It is hot where we live and sometimes the breeze blows and sometimes not. So our guests aren't hot, we run some fans. These are great because they aren't loud so that our guests can still enjoy the music and conversations. They put out a lovely push of wind to keep our guests cool!
Tornado 12" High Velocity Floor Fan, 2 Pack
If you have read anything in my tech section, you know I love Anker. This speaker is small but mighty. I just grabbed another one because it is on sale (you also know I can't resist a darn sale).
For the 4th, if you don't have outdoor surround sound - this will do the trick for some fun tunes at your party!
For the 4th, if you don't have outdoor surround sound - this will do the trick for some fun tunes at your party!
Anker Soundcore 2 Bluetooth Speaker, IPX7 Waterproof
This is a lovely addition for everyday, but also for the 4th! It has UV protectant and it's underlit! The base is sturdy so the wind won't topple it over. Comes in various sizes, so you can get a standard size or up to 11ft!
9FT Solar LED Patio Umbrella w/Base, Tan
I usually don't do things like this, but how cute is this guy??? I have more kids coming this year, so I was looking for things for them and found this. They will love it!!!! Great to help with “building” the kid's section of my party.
Dazzle Bright 5FT Inflatable Uncle Sam Puppy
These are a hit with adults and kids! I go with these instead of different sets (one for adults and one for kids) so I don't have to spend a friggin hundred bucks on glow in the dark stuff for everyone.
148 PCS Glow in the Dark Party Supplies Set
The thing you didn't know you need! I am totally going to use this for the 4th because bugs…iykyk!
19% OFF & 10% back if you use your Amazon cc | FARBERWARE Bamboo Cutting Board w/ Lid & Handles
40% off or more PRIME DAY DEALS!
***duplicating my picks isn't pulling over the full description - so check out my main list for all of the Prime Day deals here. I am scouring Amazon for the best deals and making notes on what I find - sharing price trends and other things I am noticing as I look daily.
I am shopping like a mad person for Prime Day (as I do every year). This list will be updated as I find great deals - SO THIS SECTION WILL BE CHANGING DAILY. I am only posting things that are 4 stars or better and 50% off or more.
June 8-11 you get 3 months free! PRIME DEAL!
Amazon.com: Audible Books & Originals
Not sure what to get someone? Get them a giftcard! The only two gift cards that I REALLY am happy to receive are Amazon and Starbucks. Can others be nice, sure. But, when I get Amazon or Starbucks cards - I know I will use them and get things I actually love!
Amazon eGift Card - Instant Email/Text
I actually own this and paid the $100 for it. UGH. I like this one because it is battery operated and you don't have to worry about running wires.
Ring Battery Doorbell 2024, Satin Nickel
I switched from Arlo to Blink when Arlo started charging for their service. This is the latest model, which I will buy on Prime Day. It is only at $99 right now for 3 cameras, but I have a sneaking suspicion that they might drop it even more on the actual Prime Days. Save this one!
Blink Outdoor 4 Wireless Security Camera 3-Pack
Amazon is offering a trade in deal with this one, so if you are like me and have the old Blinks - you can trade them in for a discount on the new model. And this one also comes with a mini. These are so simple to set up and I have never had a problem with the feed - even viewing from Europe. Highly recommend!
Blink Outdoor 4 + Mini 2 Smart Security Cam
I have had this exact set of kitchen shears for 10+ years. Never dulled, no rust, super strong (cuts through chicken quarters like it's nothing). Grab these while the discount lasts and thank me when you are still using these in the next ten years!
44% OFF & 10% back if you use your Amazon cc | HENCKELS International Kitchen Shears Japan
There are a ton of discounts on Lodge cast iron pans, but the 8 inch has the most discount of any I have found. If you need a bigger or smaller one, check the link because there are other options that have discounts as well. We all know the Lodge brand, so I feel like my 2 cents is already known - but Lodge makes the best cast iron hands down!!!!!
43% OFF! Lodge 8 Inch Cast Iron Skillet - Pre-Seasoned
I thought these were cheap. Nope. I have the large one of these and just scooped up this set because nothing sticks to these bad boys!
41% OFF & 10% back if you use your Amazon cc | NutriChef 3-Piece Nonstick Oven Bakeware
More Prime Day Super Deals
When I duplicate my listings, the descriptions I have updated to show discount, etc isn't pulling over - so check out the list I created specifically for Prime Deals here. This section will change almost daily! I am scouring Amazon daily for the best deals on my fave things. I am doing my best to keep up with it all, so check back periodically for updates as they come in :)
WATCH THIS ONE!!!! The price went down to $105 and I didn't buy it. It went up to $399 and now it is back down to $149. Watch this - put it in your cart and save it for later (this is what I did). Keep an eye on it because if it went down to $105 before, it will again at some point. This is the best deal I have found!!!!! 10 pieces of Calphalon cookware for just over $100??? GRAB IT!
Calphalon Hard-Anodized 10-Piece Set
For all of the non Apple folks! I just ordered this because I have wanted to try it (I use a few different tags…I like to keep my “security” spread out between brands). At this price it is worth a buy.
Samsung Galaxy SmartTag2 Bluetooth Tracker
So, I have this. Yes, I paid darn full price. But, grabbing one of these for a Christmas gift. I have taken more videos in extreme weather, underwater, etc and the footage I have taken is irreplaceable. From Alaska to Malta to Istabul - the things this thing has captured is beyond what my iphone can do. Quality is an understatement!
GoPro HERO13 Black - Waterproof 5.3K60 Camera
My ears prefer these. I have tried the Pro a few times and they fall out of my ears. This is my staple, but I am always losing one earpod. Ugh. With the 23% discount, I just had to get another pair.
Apple AirPods 4 Wireless Earbuds, H2 Chip
Why is just about everything I own on sale??? If you travel or have kids, I am sure you have an ipad. Actually, even if you don't travel or have kids, you prob have one. I love mine because I download shows, books, music, etc for traveling. Many countries overseas make you pay for things that are free to us in the US. So, I use mine for free US downloads that I can watch when I am at home overseas. The screen is crisp and clear, audio is perfect, and I haven't had any issues with screen breaks/cracks (I am so clumsy).
$299!!!! Apple iPad 11-inch A16, 128GB, Silver
What the heck is wrong with me? I just traded in my Ultra for the 10. Yes, the Ultra is amazing but I am not an athlete and the 10 does all of the things I actually use on the Ultra. So, I decided to do a little downgrade. Even with my trade in, I paid more than this. Shoot me now!
Apple Watch Series 10 GPS 42mm Rose Gold
I struggle with being hot or cold when I sleep. This gives you a little cooing effect, but pair it with your down blanket and somehow it is perfect. This thing is thick memory foam and is so comfortable. You don't totally sink into it and get stuck (like with a full memory foam mattress). It's like you can feel the stress from your joints just relax. My mattress is a hybrid (spring and foam) because I couldn't stand getting into bed and sinking into foam so much that it was quite the effort to even roll over. This was my fix!
LINENSPA 2 Inch Gel Memory Foam Topper Twin XL
Yup. Cupshe again because I love this brand and I love this suit. I have 4 or 5 suits from Cupshe because they are better than the Spanx suits - and a fraction of the cost. I have this one in the black top and flowery bottom. I LOVE IT. Pair it with a little sheer black wrap and you are set! Or just wear it as is - I am so self conscious about my thighs…it's personal :P
CUPSHE Women's Ruched Tankini Two Piece
If you have read anything in my tech section, you know I love Anker. This speaker is small but mighty. I just grabbed another one because it is on sale (you also know I can't resist a darn sale).

20% OFF! GoPro HERO13 Black - Waterproof 5.3K60 Camera
Why are razors at the brick & mortar stores soooo expensive???? I just grabbed three of these becuase 1. they don't go bad 2. the price is GREAT & 3. these are perfect - no cuts ever!
19% OFF! Gillette Venus ComfortGlide White Tea Razor
I tried a half dozen cervical pillows before I landed on this one. I sit at the computer for most of the day and I hold my stress in my neck and my thighs. So, I went on a hunt for a pillow. The reason I like this one is because it works great for me the opposite of how they show it in the picture. I flip the pillow the other way and it is perfect for my neck! The cooling is mild, but comforting. Also, notice the “ledge” where the girl in the pic has her hands? I put my whole arm in there and somehow it is so comfortable. 10/10 on this one for sure!!!!!!
33% OFF! Ultra Pain Relief Cooling Neck Support Pillow
The thing you didn't know you need! I am totally going to use this for the 4th because bugs…iykyk!
19% OFF! FARBERWARE Bamboo Cutting Board w/ Lid & Handles
If you cook, you have wanted one of these at some point. But, they are friggin pricey. The Aqua Sky is on sale for $100 less than the other colors! GRAB IT!!!!! There isn't a better mixer on the darn market! Plus, you get all kinds of “cool points” for having the best of the best. I LOVE mine! I feel like I go from ok cook to great cook whenever I use it for any recipe ;)
22% OFF!!!! KitchenAid Artisan 5 Qt Tilt Head Mixer Aqua Sky
KitchenAid is typically my go-to, but it can get a little pricey (so I sometimes go to Cuisinart or another brand for cost effectiveness), but there are quite a few KitchenAid things on sale - so YAY! Quality, durability, and so many styles/colors to choose from! I am HAPPY!
25% OFF! KITCHENAID Ribbed Silicone Oven Mitt 2-Pack
I use my Ninja for my everyday smoothie. I use my Vitamix for literally everything else. I don't know how it gets everything so smooth so fast… I call this thing my quick and quiet beast. Holy wow. 10/10 for sure!
27% OFF! Vitamix A2300 Ascent Smart Blender, Red
Hanover Manor makes a great product! This is easy peasy to put together and we haven't seen any rust or broken parts. We have game nights on this set often and the chairs are comfy. Sometimes I wish they weren't so comfy so people wouldn't linger…HA!
34% OFF & $200 Gift Card with approval for Amazon Business credit card | Hanover Manor 7-Pc Outdoor Dining Set w/ 6 Swivel Rockers
Books - GREAT reads!
Ok, so I am a bit biased on this one - but these retold fables from when you were a child are now mind bending adult reads. There is lust, magic, twists and turns….take your mind on a ride and escape from reality real quick! THANK YOU for checking this out!
Tangled Tales Vol 1: Classic Fables for Adults
Tech
This section has anything related to tech, not just electronics. If it is used with tech (ie screen cleaner or cord keepers), it is here.
Things are in order and grouped as best as I could place similar items together.
I searched, I bought, I tried SO MANY laptops. I even bought a Mac (I have been a pc person my whole life). Nothing was great. A friend has this model and said I should try it. It is closer to a Mac than most machines. I ordered and immediately I was impressed. Set up was super easy. Screen is crisp and clear. Most importantly the 16" screen is just right. The machine is slim, but the screen is huget. I travel so much that a compact, lightweight machine is so important. It is both of these thing and ultra fast. LOVE IT!!!!!
LG gram 2in1 16" Laptop i7-1360P 32GB 1TB
I am not a gamer. I am on my computer all day looking at spreadsheets, emails, ppt decks, etc. One of my travel screens died and I decided to stop using my travel screens at home and replaced it with this. OMG. I swear it is easier on the eyes with it being curved. Screen is crisp. I have zero negatives about this screen. I just might replace my other two monitors with a couple more of these.
SAMSUNG 27" Essential S3 FHD 1800R Curved Monitor
MUST HAVE! MUST HAVE! MUST HAVE! I travel for work and I don't have time to fully charge my watch. It usually dies midday. I keep this in my purse and it has saved me more times than I can count.
NEWDERY Portable Wireless Charger for Apple Watch
This thing! I go through pad that I just throw out over and over and over. I spend way too much money on them and then when I need to find something, it takes me ½ an hour to locate what I am looking for. This thing uploads your notes to the cloud - onenote, dropbox, google drive, etc. GAME. FRIGGIN. CHANGER. 10/10!
Rocketbook Fusion Reusable Planner 8.5x11
This isn't exactly “tech”, but I LOVE this thing. I work early in morning / late at night and I don't want to disturb my husband sleeping (my desk is in the bedroom). This works great, it's super adjustable, and I can use it while on vid calls for work instead of a ring light.
Voncerus LED Desk Lamp with Clamp, 3 Modes, USB
These are great for computer cord, iphone cord, ipad cord, etc. High quality, durable, and make it easy to wrap your cords neatly. I have three sets of these!
Hide & Drink Set of 3 Leather Cord Keepers
The cable my computer came with had that chunky box that was big and heavy. This is slim, lightweight, and is so much better for travel. I leave my big one at home at my desk and this one stays in my travel bag.
65W USB-C Charger for Lenovo ThinkPad T14-T16 X1
I have 3 external screens, so I needed something that has multiple HDMI plug ins. I tried a few that conked out or weren't compatible with my monitors (I have HP, Dell, and one off brand that I use for travel). This one does it all and does it well. There isn't anything I have tried that doesn't work (even my Samsung back up drive pulls through this).
Baseus 9-in-1 USB C Dock Dual 4K@120Hz
My laptop is a touch screen, phone and ipad I touch with stuff on my hands, etc. I have one of these on my desk at home and one in my travel bag. You use the actual bottle to wipe your screens and they come clean! BONUS - there is a tool included to ...
2 Pack Screen Cleaner Spray & Wipe Kit - Grey & Pink
If you travel abroad, you have a gazillion one plug adapters. One is never enough. I work when I travel, I watch Netflix via my ipad, have a phone to charge, etc etc. This is one plug that has everything you need so you don't have to pack a little ba...
European Travel Plug Adapter US to EU with 3 Outlets & 4 USB
If you don't have Prime yet, you are not living your best life. HA! Seriously. Shopping and streaming. No brainer.
Amazon.com: Amazon Prime
I wasn't sure which category to put this…I guess tech *shrugs*. Anyway, I have psoriasis and arthritis in my hands - I am on the computer all day. You cannot imagine the state of my hands. This relaxes my hand so much. Obviously it doesn't combat the psoriasis, but at least my hands get pampered after pecking on a keyboard for 10-12 hours every day (along with all of my grand household “duties”).
CINCOM Cordless Hand Massager with Heat
Remember Wii? This is Wii, but better. It comes with 5 free games (enough for us…so far, but I can see paying the $80 for the year because the catalog is vast). It is so easy to set up and you get the family engaged and active. I even play by myself sometimes - Whack a mole is FUNNNN! Set up is easy and you don't have to worry about controllers because your body does it all.
Nex Playground - Active Indoor Play System
Beauty
Al things for your beauty regimen!
I listed these in groups - ie hair, face, etc. If I wasn't sure where to put it, I place the product last. I USE ALL OF THESE. Most of them daily.
My hair is starting to thin around my temples. I have tried everything and this is the only one I have tried that has given me results. I have been using it about 6 months and my hair is stronger, shinier, and I can see new growth at my temples.
Soapbox Oh My Growth Vitamin Booster 5oz
I have tried everything (even Olaplex) and nothing has given me great results - until I tried this. I use the bond shampoo and conditioner, paired with their hair serum for growth - the results have been amazing. My hair is stronger, breaks less, and I am seeing new growth (been using this around 6mos) around my temples.
Soapbox Collagen Shampoo & Conditioner 16oz
I will never stop singing the praises of Naturium. This lotion is EVERYTHING. I have dry patches on my stomach and lower back. This softens those and they disappear. I call this food for my skin!
Naturium Bio-Lipid Moisturizing Body Lotion
Yup, another Nuturium. This stuff is amazing! It's a body wash, but if you don't rinse it all off - it's also a moisturizer/lotion. I love my plain white soap, but this stuff has all but replaced it. No strong smell, no feeling of residue on your skin. Just nice, soft, clean feelings!
Naturium Multi-Vitamin Daily Nutrients Body Wash 16.9 oz
THIS! Best travel set out there. I waffle between Tula and Naturium, but Tula wins with this set hands down. I have to call out the eye balm. I use this in the morning and evening - it gets rid of all the “tiredness” around my eyes. Amazing products!
TULA Greatest Hits Skincare Discovery Kit
Food for your face! I know this is going to sound weird, but when I use this I feel like I just gave my face a great meal. You don't need much for full coverage and your face feels moisturized without feeling greasy.
Naturium Multi-Peptide Advanced Face Serum
Random AWESOME find! I have had to laser sun spots from my face and now my skin is a bit sensitive. The masks I used previously now irritate my skin. This mask gives a deep clean and it is easy on the skin. I have been using it two times a week and my skin feels hydrated, super clean, and soft - without any irritation.
Beauty of Joseon Red Bean Pore Refreshing Mask 140ml
I almost didn't post this, but I would be doing you disservice if I didn't add this in. This is like lotion for your hoohah. I don't really have any issues down there, but I tried this just because I was curious. I use it right after my shower and it makes your downstairs feel hydrated and refreshed!
VMAGIC Medicine Mama Lips Stick – 15ml Organic Vulva Balm
Listen! If your feet are dry and cracked, you need some kind of antibacterial in your foot creme. This honey added into a stellar creme will fix your feet within days. I get out of the shower, pumice my feet, and then rub this in. You will feel softer feet in a day, but if you have the cracks in your heels - you will see those start to heal in a few days. The beach has my feet so dry that they crack - I use this daily and no more cracks form. My feet stay super soft!
Dermatonics Manuka Honey Heel & Elbow Cream
I use to spend an hour tweezing, now I slather my face with aloe and use these. I bought some off brand ones and they cut my face. Somehow these are sharp and get all of the baby hairs without slicing my face. WIN!
Schick Hydro Silk Touch-Up Dermaplaning Tool 3ct
If you have read my other hair posts, you know I have some thin and damaged hair. I hate my hair down at home while I work, clean, etc. These are easy on my hair and don't cause more damage and breakage. The thing I love is that it is just a band wrapped in silk so I get protection for my hair and I get a strong hold.
SEMRUE 22 Momme 100% Mulberry Silk Scrunchies (4)
If you have read any of my notes on haircare, I have the worst head of hair. THIS STUFF IS AMAZING!!! Want shine? THIS! Want less frizz? THIS! Want your hair to look healthy immediately? THIS!
I put this on my hair after I get out of the shower. I leave it in while I pick my outfit, do my skincare, etc. I rinse it out in the sink. You can feel the softness as you rinse! Dry as usual. You don't need leave in conditioner when you use this! You don't need shine spray. This stuff replaces the product I typically use after I shower/before I dry and style.

Elizavecca CER-100 Collagen Hair Protein 100ml
I get little cracks in the corner of my mouth. I went looking for something that would hydrate with an antibacterial. Honey is a natural antibacterial. This stuff delivered! Within days the cracks and redness were gone. I have been using this for about 4 months and have bought it several times, as I put it at my desk, my purse, my travel bag, etc. I don't go anywhere without it.
2PCS Honey & Sakura Lip Mask Day & Night
I use to go to the salon to get my brows tinted. I paid $45 per tint. Not any more! This stuff is so easy to use and the results are better than the darn salon. You look like Graucho Marx while it is setting, but after you wipe it off - PERFECTION!
MENELA Dark Brown Eyebrow Henna Tint Kit
I LOVE THIS THING! no matter how many videos I watch or how many stylists show me how, I can't get curls right...until this. Easy, simple styling. THANK YOU, CHI!!!!
CHI Spin N Curl Curling Iron, Onyx Black
Pets Pets Pets
These are all things I have vetted and actually tried - that were great. All of these items are things that they go nuts for. Here are the best that I have found.
We don't give the pups rawhide, so these are perfect. Gluten and grain free!
Jungle Calling Chicken Sweet Potato Dog Treats
No rawhide! If you want to give them a treat they will chew on for a bit and not just chomp and then look at you for another one ;)
SmartBones Chicken-Wrapped Sticks, 8 Count
They absolutely love these! These have collagen, so good for their skin and coat.
TRURANCH 5" Collagen Sticks for Dogs, 15ct
Pup have bad breath? Mine do. They love these and so do I. Natural, grain free and no corn or soy. Win-Win.
Shameless Pets Toothberry Dental Chews for Dogs
Clothing
Hear me out! Want the “Spanx effect” without the Spanx price? I found Cupshe and have been buying their bathing suits because the tummy control is excellent and I look slimmer than I am. I found these jams and love them! So soft, quality, and I don't look like a grandma.
CUPSHE Womens Silk Satin Pajamas Set
Vitamins & Minerals
If I listed everything I have tried, you would be reading for hours. There is so much shiznit out there it is hard to navigate. The below are things I use. Things I have seen make a difference in me. From perimenopause help to energy to nutrition that enhanced my life (note I am not a gym rat, just a regular person doing regular things and I need some help from supplements)
I have an issue with my mood during pms (EFF perimenopause). I have tried everything and this is the only thing that has helped me. I take it everyday because it works so well, but I found that it works if you only take it the week before your period.
Zenium Stress Relief Supplement - 60 Caps
Another one that really helps my pms mood. I only take this one when I start to get down, bloated, etc before that time of the month.
Her Own PMS Support - Mood, Hormone Balance, Menopause Relief, 30 Vegan Capsules
I swear by Sports Research. This B Complex is Plant Based. No crap added. I take this one daily and gives a pop of energy with no jitters.
Sports Research Vitamin B-Complex - 60 Veggie Softgels
Always sold out :( I use this in my morning smoothie because it is the best I have found with ample protein and collagen. Note that I do not work out, I just like my morning smoothie before I start my day and need the protein/collagen mix.
Natreve Whey Protein Powder - 26g Grass-Fed, Probiotics & Collagen, Gluten Free
Coffee!!!!
Coffee is life. That is all.
I was paying $20 per bag of this exact coffee. This bag fluctuates between $10-$13 on Amazon. Subscribe and Save can get it even less expensive.
Starbucks Pike Place Medium Roast Whole Bean
Misc Things I Absolutely LOVE
Random finds I just cannot live without.
Slim for travel and high quality. I have carried my Cartier specs in these for months without any issue. I like this because it is slim and not the big bulky case that glasses come with. I also use another option from Hide & Drink that I love for...
Hide & Drink Sunglasses Sleeve Case, Bourbon Brown
One of these is always in my fridge! I use to put things in ziplocks, but these save the fruit/veg from air that causes them to go bad faster. The avocado one is THE BEST! (but I use the onion one the most)
Winb Set of 4 Reusable Fruit & Veggie Savers
I looked at sooooooo many air fryers. I had a Ninja previously and it had all the settings. I only used one. HA! When we got this, I tried all setting (except rotisserie) and they all work perfectly. But, the reason I love this one so much is the window. I can see how things are going inside. What I discovered after buying was it is SO EASY to clean. SO EASY. Nothing sticks to the basket at all. I would buy this again and again (luckily it is perfect and I don't have to!(
CRUX x Marshmello 8QT Digital Air Fryer
I love microwave popcorn. This thing makes great popcorn and you can control the oil/flavor. It will make popcorn without oil (when you are feeling healthy) and it will also pop with oil/butter if you want the “movie theatre experience”. GREAT FIND!
Hotpop Silicone Microwave Popcorn Bowl, Cyan
Bread is either eaten within a few days or ends up going stale because it sits there too long. You buy a baguette and it will go hard overnight. This thing keeps bread so fresh! We tested it about a month after we got it because we were going out of town for 8 days. Put half a loaf in and when we returned, it was still good! WHAT??? hahahha. This thing really works!
Gifhomfix Airtight Bread Box with Lid Grey
My husband LOVES this thing. The reason being is that it not only gives a clean shave, it does body hair as well. The reason I like it is that it doesn't get hair everywhere that I have to clean up. The other models that he has had cause the trimmed hair to fly all over the bathroom. This one doesn't have hair all over the place.
Philips Norelco Multigroom 9000, 23-Piece Kit
I am not a gym rat, but we do have a treadmill. I figured if I am going to walk on it, might as well amp it up so I burn more calories. Hence, this. The little pouch comes off (I don't need it since I am not leaving the house). This doesn't rub (I usually do anywhere from 2-5mi at a time) and it is padded properly so it's comfortable.
ZELUS Weighted Vest 6-30lb with Reflective Stripe
How cute is this set! My grandmother loves a rocking chair so I bought this on a whim (and because it was on sale) and this set is so cute! I got it in black, but I think I may should have got the grey…. It was easy to put together and the rock on both chairs is so smooth. So happy with this find!!
3-Piece Outdoor Rocking Bistro Set, Black
I tried a half dozen cervical pillows before I landed on this one. I sit at the computer for most of the day and I hold my stress in my neck and my thighs. So, I went on a hunt for a pillow. The reason I like this one is because it works great for me the opposite of how they show it in the picture. I flip the pillow the other way and it is perfect for my neck! The cooling is mild, but comforting. Also, notice the “ledge” where the girl in the pic has her hands? I put my whole arm in there and somehow it is so comfortable. 10/10 on this one for sure!!!!!!
Ultra Pain Relief Cooling Neck Support Pillow
Those crazy cool unique Amazon finds!
Hear me out! You know all of the crumbs, etc that accumulate in your purse and the kid's backpacks? I cannot believe this works, but it does!!! Toss this in and it's all within this little ball. You can clean it and it keeps picking up dirt, lint, chips, etc. Crazy, but crazy great!!!
Sauberkugel - Clean Ball for Bags & Backpacks
OK, not the craziest item - but I bought this one day when I was feeling lazy and now I can't live without it. Just please be careful, this thing is sharp! SO SHARP! It does everything in a fraction of the time. And I don't cut my fingers anymore on my sharp Henkel!
Fullstar 11-in-1 Vegetable Chopper & Slicer
Backyard by the pool. Side yard walkway. Yes and Yes. They last hours and illuminate nicely! They aren't your typical little light and I love the way they look in the greenery! I have some “backups” in the garage because I might just go a little nuts for the holidays with these guys!!!
TONULAX Solar Swaying Garden Lights 2 Pack
This thing has saved my life more than once. I perpetually forget to take the meat out of the freezer and I use to fill the sink with water and pray that it defrosts in time (sometimes putting the meat in the pan with the middle still frozen and seas... No more! This bad boy will defrost your meat with a quickness…usually about 30mins! Must have!
Cuisinart BBQ Aluminum Rapid Defrost Tray
It's never too soon to look at Christmas stuff!
I am serious. I stock up on Christmas stuff year round!
Who doesn't love Gnomeo???? Why use a regular silicone basting brush when you can use a Gnomeo basting brush? As of June 24, there was a 30% coupon available - so run grab this while the discount is still around!
OTOTO Gnomeo Silicone Pastry Basting Brush
Camping
The lid doubles as a cutting board. It is so easy to clean. It is cute! So, those are my selling points on this one, but my husband loves that it cooks quickly and evenly. So, this one is a win-win for sure!
Cuisinart Venture™ Portable Gas Grill, 9,000 BTU
TikTok made me buy it 🤣
These are kinda crazy, but they actually work!!!
Vacuum your bed??? Yup! This has an anti allergen cleaner and a uv light to help combat the stuff you can't see. Between our ever shedding skin cells and pet dander, this thing will grab it. I also use it on my couch and in my car.
Qijun Anti-Allergen Handheld Bed Vacuum Cleaner with UV-C & HEPA
You know when you can relieve your migraine by massaging your eyes or temples? Imagine that, but sooooooo much better. Compression and heat in just the right places to ease and cease your headache. It also had Bluetooth for music, but I don't use it ...
RENPHO Eye Massager with Remote, Heat, Compression
