I’m linking up with Tanya for the first Prime Purchases of 2024!
(I’m posting this on Sunday because on Monday we have our first Share Our Lives link up of the year)
Well, this is a supersized post because I’m sharing many gift purchases I had. I did buy some in November and others in December but couldn’t share them just yet. I’m also sharing a few gifts I received and already love.
Gifts Given:
I always think of hand warmers for Travis as a gift because he works outside quite a bit in January with a horse sale. I bought him these rechargeable ones for Christmas.
I also bought Travis this trunk organizer. He has a really big trunk, and he always has lots of stuff, so I thought this would help keep things organized.
Travis asked for a hand held vacuum, and this is the one I got him. It comes in a variety of colors.
This gift was one of the last ones I purchased. I saw Trav’s work gloves on the front porch, and they’d seen better days. I thought he could use a new pair.
Hadley received this makeup organizer for her new vanity/desk.
Hayden loves scrambled eggs, and my mom always microwaves one in a cup when she visits. I thought they both might like this “Chef Buddy” for cooking eggs.
Gifts Received:
It was time for a new hand mixer, so I asked for this one. I love the color and the fact that there is storage for the beaters.
I already shared about this tray last week, but I like to keep Amazon things in one post. I asked for this tray for our couch. One end of the couch doesn’t have a side table, so I thought this would be perfect, and it is.
I’m now realizing that I think I threw away the little phone/ipad holder that clips on the end. It must have been in the box.
I had some favorite juice glasses from Pier One that we received as a wedding gift. Well, almost 18 years later and the set we had was down to only a couple of glasses left.
I want to get back in the habit of making a few hard boiled eggs each week. I’d seen this rapid egg cooker, so I asked for it for Christmas too. I made a few eggs earlier in the week…in only 10 minutes!
Stocking Stuffers:
I was at a craft fair in KC over Thanksgiving, and picked up a couple of shower steamers. Well, I loved them so much that I thought I’d put a couple in everyone’s stockings, so I ordered this pack.
Hadley was talking with her friends about the gifts they’d received, and she said many of them got shower steamers. They must be all the rage. haha
I really love these too, and they’ve been refreshing and relaxing for my showers lately when I haven’t felt well.
I bought Hayden these Dude Wipes last year, so I thought they’d be a great stocking stuffer again.
For Trav’s family’s “Dirty Santa” exchange, I picked up these nuggets sauce trays that clip on your car vents. (and I threw in a Chick-fil-A gift card too!)
Clothes:
While this skirt was an impulse buy, I really love it.
I had some black boots I’d never worn, and I thought a leather skirt would be fun.
I shared this double zip sweater on Friday, and I love it (and the under $20 price!)
I think it’s easy to dress up or down.
Health:
I’d gotten out of the habit, but I’m starting the year off getting back on track with a scoop of this collagen powder in my coffee.
January definitely tends to be a lighter shopping month, but I’m sure I will have some things to share in February.
Have a great day!

How was your weekend? We had a “divide and conquer” kind of weekend.
Travis and Hayden went to Tallahassee, Florida for the AAU Cross Country National race, and it poured down rain the entire time they were there. Meanwhile, Hadley and I were in Lex for a pretty low key weekend that included her science project and the Taylor Swift concert movie.
Hayden had an awesome race, and I hate that I missed it. The pics and videos Travis sent me were unreal. It looked like Hayden was in a “tough mudder” competition. That being said, Travis and Hayden had fun despite the weather.
Anyway, on to today’s business…
It’s the first Monday of the month, so I’m linking up with Tanya for Prime Purchases...the last one of 2023!
Here are my purchases for the month…(actually, I purchased a few more things, but I don’t want spoil any gift giving!)
Hayden needed new water bottles, and actually asked for these Gatorade ones for his birthday. He’s hard to buy for, and water bottles are boring, but I put these in a bag with a few other things he needed. We’ve used these these water bottles a lot through the years.
I wanted a new black sweatshirt that is a little nicer than just a sweatshirt. Anyway, this 1/4 zip is great to wear with jeans or leggings.
I have this same sweater in blue, and wanted a green one for the Christmas season. It’s an easy slouchy fit…
and I’ve already worn it quite a few times.
I shared this hair straightener in the kids’ birthday post, and it is legit. Hadley asked for a new straightener because they one she’s used the past few years was a hand me down from a friend and it wasn’t working properly.
Anyway, what caught my attention about this one is that it straightens and has the indention to curl hair. I’ve used it to curl my hair a couple of times, and it’s so good.
I bought these pore strips for the kids’ stockings just as a fun way to help with skincare.
Hadley needed a few new sports bras, and this pack worked well.
Stocking Stuffers…
Did you catch my Let’s Lookpost with Shay and Erika last month? We all shared stocking stuffer ideas.
A few gift ideas…
As we inch closer to the Christmas season, I thought I’d share a few favorite Amazon items that I’ve purchased in the past year (or given or been given as gifts)
A few of my faves:
I purchased a pack of flameless candles last January, and they sure came in clutch when we lost power for five days in February. Besides being our main source of light, most of them are a part of my regular home decor now.
The pack I bought doesn’t seem to be available, but there are many other options including this pack.
My Gma gave me these boots for my birthday this year, and I love them. I wore them most of this weekend too.
I use this candle warmer in my classroom, and it’s perfect.
Gifts we’ve given and currently love:
This microwave popcorn popper is so fun and comes in a few colors. Hadley loves using it for an afternoon snack. (It comes in “snack size” too)
We have this electric tea kettle, and gave one to my mom as well.
My Gma requested this heated neck/shoulder wrap last year, and then I also gifted it to my dad for his birthday. He loves this thing…
You know I love my Kindle, and my mom and Gma do too.
Hadley:
One of Hadley’s favorite gifts that she received is this straightening/styling hairbrush. It’s perfect for bringing your hair back to life and giving a bit of volume.
Hayden:
Hayden uses this mini massage gun often (and Trav does too!)
Trav:
I gave this collapsible utility wagon to Trav a couple of years ago, and I don’t know how we made it through all the baseball years without one. He uses it all the time for cross country. It would also be perfect for the beach, a picnic, or any other time you have to cart quite a few things around!
This is the first Christmas season in quite some time that I feel pretty good about my shopping list and all that I’ve already accomplished.
I hope this post helps give you a few ideas if you are looking for some.

I hope you are having a great week. The day off yesterday was just what I needed to have a bit of downtime mixed in with productivity. Now we’re on the downhill slide to the weekend.
I had to double check my calendar. I can’t believe it’s the second Wednesday of the month! That means I’m linking up with Shay and Erika for Let‘s Look.
I skipped October because I’d already shared a post about fears for the blog challenge.
This month we are looking at…stocking stuffers.
Tis the season, y’all!
I looked back at my Amazon history, and today I’m sharing a few favorite stocking stuffers.
I know it seems random but this tissue box cover “elevates” an eyesore on the counter. There are a variety of colors, and it’s less than $8! I have this “pastel gray” one and have gifted it to others as well.
I stuck this razor kit in Hayden’s stocking last year. While he doesn’t need it often ☺️, it has definitely come in handy.
This heatless curl set is Hadley approved. It comes in a few different designs…including “candy cane!”
Both Travis and Hayden have these stocking caps with a light for running. It’s the perfect gift for a runner during the winter months.
I hate to exaggerate, but this ground meat chopper is a game changer for cooking! I use it every time I cook ground meat.
I have this watch band, and I love the scallop detail. It comes in so many cute colors; maybe I should grab another one.
These rose gold earrings are my favorite, and I wear them almost every single day. They are less than $10, and have a $1 off coupon.
These socks are fun for any gamer or teen in your life. For only $6, they’d be a perfect stocking gift. I got them for Hayden a couple of years ago.
Bananagrams is a fun game for all ages. It’s the perfect size to take for family fun when you travel.
I’ve shared these portable chargers before, and they’ve worked great for us through the years. They got us through the five day power outage last spring. I have my eye on this one because it’s slimmer, and we could use one or two more.
Honestly, stockings have always been my favorite part of Christmas morning.
Happy shopping!

Y’all, I forgot all about Daylight Saving Time until Friday when I read a couple of other blog posts! Then, I forgot all about it again until Saturday night…when I went ahead and set the clocks back.
I know it’s an annoying adjustment, but I definitely appreciated the extra hour yesterday.
As I always do on the first Monday of the month, I’m linking up with Tanya to share my Amazon purchases.
This month was pretty much all about me. Whoops. That being said, a few purchases were from late September, but I wanted to wear them before sharing.
Here are my purchases from the month:
Before our fall break trip, I picked up this cover up and swimsuit. I haven’t bought a new swimsuit in a couple of summers, and I can pretty much say the same thing about swim cover ups too.
Anyway, I thought this one would be a good option because I knew we might be going from beach to restaurants occasionally, and this one is even styled as a dress on Amazon.
Anyway, I really like it, and it comes in a variety of colors.
I have shared this swimsuit time and time again, but this swimsuit is a new fave for sure. I realize it’s fall right now, and you might not be going anywhere warm, but if you are, this one shoulder suit is legit.
It comes in a variety of colors and patterns, and I just bet I will share it with you all again this summer.
The thing about me and athleisure is that I tend to keep most leggings and tanks for quite a while. I did go through my athleisure drawer recently, and got rid of a few pieces.
I was trying to find another 7/8 length pair of leggings, and these are it. The fabric is soft, they hold you in, and they have the side pocket which I prefer. These are a new fave for sure.
I shared these in a previous post, but wanted to include them again in my monthly Amazon post.
These are definitely more of a yoga style with softer, thinner fabric. That being said, I’ve used them for low-impact workouts and just casual wear, and I don’t regret this purchase. The price is great too!
What caught my eye is side slit which I thought was a fun detail.
Real talk – I was influenced by Jen Reed when she shared this purse. What I like about this purse is that it is nice, sturdy, cute, and a crossbody. There are times, like when I go to Keeneland, that I take a clutch purse, but I wanted a nicer crossbody, so I’m not holding my purse the entire time.
This purse is on the smaller side, but it held what I needed it to hold for the day. It also comes with a longer adjustable strap too, but I used the shorter one that came attached to it.
Lastly, I’ve been using this magnetic meal planning pad to keep on the fridge, and needed to order another one after using it for a year. It’s the perfect size to write our activities and what we are having for dinner as well as using the right hand side for my grocery list.
So those are my purchases for the month. It’s hard to believe that November purchases might include birthday gifts for a couple of fourteen year olds as well as some possible early Christmas gifts.

I’m linking up with Tanya today to share my Amazon purchases for the month.
I had a few clothing purchases this month, but a few other odds and ends too.
Oops…I did it again!
I purchased this cardigan in black. I now have it in three colors. I did replace a black cardigan that I’ve had for probably ten years with this one. My previous one was showing its age, and didn’t have pockets. I need pockets, especially when I wear cardigans to school.
Also, I picked up this over-sized shirt (again!), and I now have it in three colors. It works with leggings, jeans, as a sleep shirt, or wear under a cardigan, etc….so that’s why I love it so much. It’s versatile.
Ok…these next two waffle sets have been all over the internet, and I wanted to give both a try. I did wait to purchase both until they were on sale and had a coupon. I’ve seen others share these as lounge wear and/or pjs.
…and this set as more loungewear (meaning — I will leave the house to run errands in it). I’m sure it doesn’t matter either way, but I have been wearing them as such.
Both feel “high end” and are comfy and cute. I did size up one in both just in case they shrunk with washing. I haven’t washed either, but I’m glad I sized up one size.
I needed another bottle of my daytime Vitamin C serum, so I ordered it again. I’ve been using this brand for probably close to a year.
We needed a new kitchen faucet, and Travis ordered this one. I think he liked that it had the sensor, but I turned the sensor off because I like to pull the hose over to fill up our Keurig/coffee pot…haha. Anyway, it’s been a good upgrade from what we had.
My dad wanted a knife sharpening set, so he asked me to send him this one. He gives it two thumbs up!
What’s your best Amazon purchase this month?
{This post contains Amazon Affiliate links. Thanks for supporting my blog.}
A couple of weeks ago, I enjoyed sharing the outfits I’d been wearing recently, so I’m trying to remember to snap a pic when I can.
The outfits I’m sharing today are a mix of school and weekend.
We went to Nashville for a birthday party a couple of weeks ago, and I snagged this dress from Amazon. It was an impulse buy, but I really like it. It comes in a variety of colors, and it has pockets!
This outfit is brought to you by Amazon…and really –they are Amazon purchases from quite a while ago. I know I’ve had the dress, cardigan, and sandals for at least two years.
This outfit includes same cardigan, different color. Same sandals as above as well. I picked up this floral dress at Walmart last spring.
I always get so many compliments when I wear this floral Old Navy dress. I remember when I bought it, I was on the fence about it, but I’m glad I kept it. I did cut the tassels off because I hate tassels.
I always joke that I feel like I’m going to a fiesta when I wear it, but it’s a great dress for school. I’m wearing my favorite Amazon sandals from last summer, but they aren’t in stock anymore.
Friday, I wore these jeans to school and then changed out of my school t-shirt and put on my favorite Amazon cap sleeve sweater to go to the UK volleyball game.
For Hayden’s cross country meet, I wore my one of my pairs of Fabletics leggings, my SSYS workout tank, and New Balance tennis shoes.
I wore this outfit to school last Wednesday. The top is SSYS, and I’ve had my white denim jeans forever.
I wore this outfit to school yesterday. Amazon joggers and sandals and a denim shirt that I got at Target a few years ago.
Looking back at these outfits, I did a good job shopping my closet. The only new item is the first dress. Also, for me, “sandal season” lasts through September. I’m always bummed when I have to put away all my cute sandals!
Thanks for reading!

I wore it to school and got lots of compliments. Bonus — it has pockets!
I needed a new keyboard for my school computer and bought this wireless pink keyboard/mouse combo.
It’s the perfect fit for my desk.
Up until last week, I had a desktop computer and two monitors. I was having some connectivity issues, so I ended up with a new chromebook and monitor. I like my new set up.
I shared about this candle warmer lamp in a Friday Favorites post, and it’s still a favorite.
I’ve used it with both single and three wick candles, and it warms them up just enough to to make my classroom smell so good.
The lamp height is adjustable and has three settings for the light.
I can’t wait to buy some fall candles to mix into the rotation.
Hadley wants to take her lunch occasionally this year. She hasn’t used a lunchbox in a couple of years, so she picked out this new one. It’s been working for her so far.
Random story, but I had a SSYS dress in mind for the Nashville birthday party we went to last weekend and when it went on sale, I bought it…but had it shipped to my mom’s house by accident.
Of course, I have quite a few dresses, but most felt liked they’d either be “too nice” or are more for what I wear to school.
So, admittedly, this dress was in impulse buy…but I love it.
It’s light-weight, classic, and I love a collar on a dress.
I wore the wedges I got earlier in the summer from Old Navy.
We were too rushed to get to the party for me to take a pic, so I re-created the outfit and snapped this pic after a hectic day at school last week… haha…
At the party, a friend asked me if my dress was from Amazon…because she has it in purple which is her daughter’s school color. She’d worn it to the school football game the night before. It does come in so many colors!
So, that’s it for my recent Amazon purchases. What have you “primed” lately?
{This post contains Amazon Affiliate links. Thanks for supporting my blog.}
TGIF! This week has felt extra busy which made it go by pretty quickly. I think this is our last really hot day for now, and I never thought I’d be so excited about low 80’s degree days, but that’s on our horizon.
As always, I’m linking up with Andrea and Erika for this week’s Friday Favorites.
Here are a few favoritesfrom the week.
Favorite photo(s):
Our friend shared some of they professional photos from our fun evening a couple of weeks ago celebrating at Hadley’s friend’s bat mitzvah.
I loved this one…
…and this one with some of my favorite people
Favorite moment:
Seeing Hayden back on the race course this past weekend was fun.
…and I can’t wait to watch all the runners this season. Coach White and his crew kick off the cross country season this weekend.
Favorite food:
Quick and easy dinners were the way to go this week! I made thisCheesy Fajita Baked Chicken again, and it’s officially a family favorite. Like last time, I used peppers from our garden which was an added bonus.
Clothing item:
Did you catch my post on Wednesday? I’ve had lots of favorite outfits lately.
Favorite Amazon find:
I always wish I could burn a candle in my classroom, and I decided to try this Candle Warmer Lamp. I was sooo pleasantly surprised that it worked!
This week, I tested out a single wick candle as well as a three wick candle, and they both worked! The lamp helps warm the candle and it’s a subtle scent. You touch the shade, and it’s dimmable. There are three settings, and I’ve kept the light brightness on the second one. Anyway, I’ve looked forward to turning this on as soon as I get to my classroom every day this week.
Last Saturday evening, when we arrived at Hayden’s race, Travis and Hayden wanted to get out of the car in order to get his racing bib and get settled. So, they hopped out of the car, and I said to Hadley that they didn’t even say goodbye.
She said, “Cross country season…live, laugh, love.” 😆
Favorite Mom Meme:
This sure is the truth!
Bonus Fave: Flashback Friday
In honor of cross country season starting, I love this throw back to the kids’ 5th grade year when Hayden placed 1st and Hadley placed 4th at their end of season county race. Who knew we’d have so many races in our future?!
Well, we’re back from California which also included an 8 1/2 hour car ride yesterday from KC. I drove the kids there last weekend, stayed a few days, met Travis in California, then flew back to KC Saturday night and drove to Lex yesterday. To say I wish I could have slept in this morning might be the understatement of the century…haha
but…
Today, I officially head back to school. Our students don’t start until next Wednesday, but they added all of our professional development days to the beginning of the year rather than sprinkling them throughout the year (or letting us get our own PD in the summer…not really “best practice,” but what do I know? Can you tell I’m bitter?)
Anyway, since it’s the first Monday of the month, Tanya is hosting her Prime Purchases link up!
I did have quite a few purchases, so here we go…
Clothes:
I hadn’t really purchased many clothes this summer from Amazon, but did buy a few things over the past few weeks that I’ve been wearing quite a bit.
I’ve shared this romper already a time or two when it was worth mentioning in other posts, but I haven’t shared it in a Prime post yet. Actually, I bought this romper mid-June, but I wanted to wear it a few times before sharing. Like I said before, I don’t know if it’s the most flattering (on me), but it’s comfy, and I like the pink color with my tan.
This three pack of biker shorts were something I wanted to try. Now, I’ve yet to leave the house in these biker shorts, but I’ve used them for at home Pilates workouts, lounging and even pjs with a t-shirt. I really like them.
This cap sleeve sweater is one of my favorite purchases this summer. It’s lightweight, comfy and cute. Truly, I love this sweater. I wore it twice in Florida and twice in California…not that you have to go on vacay to wear it, but I was so glad I packed it. I know I will wear it to school too.
This tiered tank is perfect for summer nights paired with white denim.
I have this t-shirt in two colors. I knew it was oversized, so I bought it in medium, and it’s perfect. Then I thought it would be good with the biker shorts in a size large, and it does provide enough coverage. So, I have this t-shirt in purple and the rose color.
Books:
Like I said in my What I’ve Been Reading post last week, I purchased The Five-Star Weekendbecause the library waitlist was long. I read it in 24 hours while in Cali. IT was SO good.
I picked up this word search book to do on the plane because sometimes, if I feel anxious on the plane, I can’t concentrate to read. I did quite a few of these on the plane, in the airport, or just lounging around in the morning. I love a word search.
Health:
Like I shared in my “What’s in my shower” post last week, I’ve been buying this Selsun Blue for Hayden. He doesn’t have itchy scalp, but I guess it can be good for skincare too. Again, he doesn’t use it as a face wash…just when he washes his hair, and it trickles down his face, there are skincare benefits (and he’s getting his hair washed!)
I’ve been putting a scoop of electrolyte powder in my Stanley cup for my workouts, and I really like this orange pineapple flavor.
Prime Day:
I had a few Prime Day purchases…
I bought this little portable speaker for Hadley because she’s always looking for Trav’s. It didn’t arrive before our trip to Florida, so I think I’m going to save it for her birthday.
I needed more of my collagen powder, and the Vital Proteins that I always buy was on sale.
I’m loving my Stanley cup and wanted extra straws. These were on sale that day too.
So, what have you been Priming lately?
Also, I want to say thank you for the blogiversary love on Friday…I really appreciate the comments and will choose a winner soon. I hope to post pretty regularly this week, but I will just have to take it day by day…re-entry is rough!
I hope you have a great Monday.
{This post contains Amazon Affiliate links. Thanks for supporting my blog.}
…and happy Amazon Prime day(s). Today and and tomorrow, Amazon will have some great deals going on.
I debated on writing this post because if you are on Instagram or read a lot of blogs, I know it can be overwhelming to see all the sales that are happening in July. Between Nordstrom, Amazon, and even Walmart and Target…and more…there are lots of sales going on. Of course, just because something is on sale doesn’t mean we have to have it…I even have to remind myself that sometimes.
It’s fun to look back on purchases this year and put together posts like these. I always like seeing what others have purchased too. Also, I am an Amazon Associate, so I can earn from qualifying purchases.
Many shop Prime Days for “big ticket” items, but today, I’m mostly just sharing some Amazon faves of mine (or a few things I have on my Amazon list)
Most of these items seem to be on sale and some even have an extra coupon. I’ll share percentage off on the item, if it has a coupon, and even reviews as I can.
Prices and deals seem to fluctuate, so this is the info I have as I finish up this post.
Top 5!
This blog post is pretty extensive with favorites, but I also decided to share my top five faves…So, you’ll see these in the post in the organized sections, but here are my five faves:
We got this electric tea kettle for my mom a couple of years ago, and then got one for our house. (It’s currently at its lowest price in 30 days at 10% off.)
We just got these beer mugs for Travis for his birthday. He loves a frosty cold beer so these are perfect for the freezer. I don’t think these are on sale, but they are a great price and have almost 10,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+ reviews.
This microwave popcorn popper is family fave! Hadley probably uses it the most 🙂 We’ve given it as a gift too. (Almost 60,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.4 rating and 20% off)
Drink glasses – Like forks, I’m not sure where some of our glasses have gone. I had favorite set that we got as a wedding gift (18 years ago) from Pier 1. Now, we are down to two.
I have my eye on these (they come in a few colors and have 5% off coupon) or these.
Lawn and Garden:
We got my mom this gardening tool set as a gift. (currently 46% off)
For Christmas, we got Travis this Solo Stove Mesa (10% off and lowest price in 30 days)
Apparel:
This Hanes “invisible bra” is one of my all time favorite Amazon purchases. I have at least three of them. They are perfect for comfort at home/sleeping. (less than $7, and 59% off)
I love this black dress that I got last summer; I just wore it last week.(25% off)
My fave swim cover up that I have in two colors has a 15% off coupon.
I shared the long version of this romper that I ordered this summer. I also have the shorts version that has a 5% off coupon. I have been wearing both with a tank all summer.
This set of biker shorts I only purchased a couple of weeks ago, but they rank right up there with the Hanes bra as so comfortable and a great buy. I’ve even been sleeping in them. (19% off)
Shoes, Handbags, and Accessories:
My fuzzy slippers are still a fave, and I love that they are sandal style, especially in the summer. (35% off)
I’ve had this quilted cross body purse for over a year, and I use it so often. (42% off and almost 10,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+ reviews)
This black belt bag purse has been my #1 purse of the summer. It comes in tan too. (12% off)
Christmas 2021, my mom got both of the kids this Rockland Melbourne 20 inch hardside expandable spinner suitcase . I’m tempted to buy one for myself today because I’m the only family member without a carry on size suitcase. (That’s because I’m the one who over-packs, but I’m working on it!) (61% off)
Hadley still loves her sunglasses, (44% off and 12,000 reviews, 4⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 rating)
I can’t travel anywhere without my favorite packing cubes. (Various colors on sale)
I don’t switch out my earrings often, and I almost always wear stud earrings. I’ve had this pair for a couple of years and wear them the most. They are a great price and have a coupon to save $1.
Technology:
We bought Travis these wireless earbuds with hooks for his birthday last year, and he loves them. He wears them when he runs and when he does yard work. (40% off)
The kids had been using the same sound machines since they were babies. I’d also been wanting to have them start waking up more on their own this past year. When I saw this sound machine/clock combo, I gave it to them as one of their Valentine’s Day gifts. This ranks as one of my all-time favorite purchases.
It has many sound options, various colors for a nightlight (but no light is an option too) and is an alarm clock as well. They’ve been using them since February and even this summer to get themselves up for various activities. We love these things. Right now are they are 53% off and have a coupon.
We got Travis this mini massage gun for Father’s Day last year…Hayden uses it too! (-46% off and over 8,000 reviews, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.7 rating)
You know I love my Kindle Paperwhite! I’ve had mine for four years, and we got my Gma one for Christmas a couple of years ago.
The Ring video doorbell brings us peace of mind. That being said, we have to remember to change out/charge the batteries. (It’s 50% off right now and has 163,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.7 reviews )
The Roomba helps keep up with Homer’s dog hair. (28% off and 19,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+ reviews)
How cute are these portable blue tooth speakers? They are 45% off. I think these would be perfect for the kids – they are always asking for our bigger blue tooth speakers to take outside. I’m going to snag one for both of them and save them for their birthday. (Almost 40,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 reviews)
Pet Products:
We don’t need this as much now that we have a leather couch, but this pet roller constantly saved the day on our cloth couch. (22% off and 143,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+ reviews )
We try to brush Homer as much as possible. This brush has a 10% coupon and 52,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 star reviews.
Beauty/Health:
I’ve shared these toothbrushes time and time again. I have one and so do the kids. I can’t recommend them enough. They are currently 43% off right now. (19,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+ reviews)
I’ve added this Gold Bond neck and chest firming cream to my skin care routine, and I love it. (29% off)
I’ve been using this Jergens tanning foam when needed since November, and it’s amazing. It’s so easy to apply with a mitt, drys quickly, and provides the prettiest tan color. (7% off)
Cerave is Hadley’s fave. She uses it every night. (28% off)
I’ve used these Lumineux whitening strips off and on over the past year or so when I’ve had breaks in my Invisalign treatments. They don’t make my teeth sensitive, and do brighten up my smile pretty easily. ($4 coupon)
I still use my dermaplane razor at least once a month in between my facial appointments. (52% off and 21,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating and reviews)
This has been my vitamin C serum for the past six months. (27% off and coupon)
We got Hayden this razor kit for his stocking, and it’s perfect for him at this time in his life. (13% off)

Last June was when I did my huge closet purge, and over a year later, my closet is still looking good. These acrylic shelf dividers have been an amazing addition to my closet and have definitely helped keep it organized. They are currently 49% off.
I ordered this fuzzy white blanket last fall (and it comes in other colors too) Hadley immediately claimed it as her own, and it’s now on her bed. (33% off and 147,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+ reviews)
We have these mattress toppers on all three of our beds, and they have given our mattresses new life. I’m forever grateful for this find. It’s currently 32% off and has 27,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+ reviews)
Sports/Outdoors:
Trav is still loving the athletic shorts we got him for Father’s Day. They have a $4.80 off coupon.
Both Travis and Hayden have this beanie with a built in light to use for running in the cooler/colder temps. There’s currently a $2 off coupon.
I hope these ideas provide some help whether it’s for yourself or a gift idea for the future. I prefer sharing with you things that have worked for me or my family, and I’m sure there are tons of other deals out there too. I know you probably feel bombarded on Instagram (and other blogs) with over-sharing. haha…I’m sure most of us don’t need any of these things, but it’s nice to get a deal.
