30 Problem-Solving Walmart Finds To Make Life Easier
Promising review: "This heats up instantly and gets all wrinkles out effortlessly with the steam feature. I couldn't be happier with this purchase. Long cord, easy to fill, and a good-sized reservoir. Use distilled water only. I didn't know to do this with previous steamers and ruined them with mineral build-up. Haven't tried the creaser tool yet." —sumrgirlPrice: $70
A silk pillowcase whose slippy texture feels sumptuous against your skin, contributes to maintaining healthy hair, and looks super luxurious on your bed. Win-win-win.
Promising review: "Upon first use, I could see an improvement in my hair and skin. I no longer look like a disheveled MESS when I wake up! I think the silk helps me sleep better, too!" —JGreyPrice: $24.97 (available in two colors)
A handsome hardside carry-on suitcase to finally replace the busted one you've been lugging around for years and years. Four spinner wheels make it easy as can be to roll this baby around and integrated compression straps and zippered interior compartments ensure you can keep everything organized.
Promising review: "The size is great for a long trip or a plain ol' prepared overpacker!! I appreciate the two divided, separate sides, pockets, and the zipper compartments make it even better. The maneuverability of the rollers was surprisingly smooth. Great purchase!!" —KellyPrice: $58+ (available in seven colors)
A pet hair remover so you can finally ditch less effective rollers with sticky sheets in favor of a washable and reusable option. Having pets rocks. Having their hair all over your home all the time? Not so much.
Promising review: "I bought this because obviously, I have a cat. Love my cat, but she sleeps in the crook of my arm at night, and I have cat hair up my nose and everywhere else. Thank you for this product, and I appreciate the thank you card included in the box. These two removers work wonderfully on the job they're supposed to perform. I love the mini detailer, which is a breeze to use and is very effective at every task it tackles. Wish I had bought them 50 years ago. Excellent purchase." —JamesPrice: $14.99 (originally $21.99)
A pair of Apple AirPods Pro 2 whose legendary active noise cancellation is a lifesaver on loud flights, when you really need to lock in, or if you just want a little peace and quiet. And all without cords! Thanks, technology.
Promising review: "If you're looking for premium sound, top-tier noise cancellation, and overall comfort, the AirPods Pro 2 are definitely worth it. They're perfect for anyone who's already in the Apple ecosystem and wants the best wireless earbuds. Highly recommended!" —anonymousPrice: $169 (originally $239)
A Bluetooth sleep headband for anyone who loves nothing more than to listen to music or a podcast while going to bed. Ira Glass, sing me to sleep! Huge bonus is that it doubles as an eye mask so if you're bothered by light pollution or any blinking chargers, you're in luck.
Promising review: "I was very cautious about buying earphones for sleeping, as I didn't think I'd like anything around my head while I slept. Instead, I found the headband very comfortable and the sound quality excellent. The speakers didn't need to be exactly over each ear in order to be heard well. I'm a side sleeper and didn't feel the speakers at all. The headband charged up in two to three hours and easily lasted through two nights. I like it very much." —ChinellaPrice: $7.89 (originally $10.99)
A Shark robot vacuum and mop to effortlessly tidy up your floors with just the touch of a button. Listen, we basically live in the future. It's about time you have a robot cleaning for you!
Promising review: "Really great suction, which was surprising. Also, I didn't realize when I first set it up that you needed to take the mop piece off if you wanted to have dry mode on, but it's simple to remove the mop attachment, and this baby soars throughout the entire house. Floors are spotless and it automatically sweeps the entire house daily at 9 a.m...get it. :)" —ChristaPrice: $248 (originally $379.99)

Price: $14.99+ (available in two sizes and two colors)
An external battery that ensures no matter where you roam you'll be able to get directions, snap photos, make payments, everything! Is it troubling that our phones are our whole lives? Yes. But that means you never want to get caught without juice.
Promising review: "Fast shipping and well-packaged. Tested immediately with iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods overnight, performed as expected, and even had leftover charge the next morning. Impressed!" —JuliePrice: $8.32 (originally $11.88)
An over-the-sink strainer so cleaning all that fresh produce from the farmers market is nice and easy. Ugh, I hate when the colander is rattling around in the sink with all my fruit and veg in there, it gives me the ick!
Promising review: "If you do a lot of cooking that requires any straining, this item is just what you need. It leaves your hands free from everything else that you have to do. It fits perfectly over most sinks, and the liquid goes right down the drain." —LauraSPrice: $16.99 (originally $18.99)

This is part of BuzzFeed's Tasty collection at Walmart. Promising review: "I love my new Tasty cutting board prep station. The originality, the thoughtfulness, and all the extras that come with it are awesome. So, if you desire a cutting board that is a cut above (no pun intended) the other standard cutting boards out there, this is the one I would recommend." —BarbaraPrice: $8.88
A Wi-Fi range extender because it's time you finally take control of your life and stop telling yourself that the internet being slow on the second floor of your house is okay. It's not okay. It stinks! It stinks like trash! And at well under $50, this is well worth the investment.
A handheld fan to tote around alllll summer long when you'd usually be sweating it out without reprieve. Tuck this handy dandy gadget in your bag and get used to your new life of cool, dry luxury.
Promising review: "Super cute, small but packs a windy punch. Stands up on the table to be hands-free if needed. USB charging option, light for night vision, and a cord to hang. Battery lasts very long so far." —PrincessPrice: $18.05+ (originally $26.99, available in six colors)
A dishwasher cleaner because — *BREAKING NEWS* — your dishwasher can be dirty! Ensure your dishes are getting the royal treatment with this easy solution.
Promising review: "I was close to calling a dishwasher-repair company or getting a new one because the dishes were coming out spotty and a little dirty, no matter what I did. I found this product online and bought it; after ONE use, the dishwasher is working again! I love it. There is no strong chlorine smell or anything, either. Great product! Try it!" —MjPrice: $7.97 for a 4-pack
A Bluetooth transmitter that allows you to connect your Bluetooth headphones to the airplane audio jack. Not being literally tethered to the seat in front of you and covered in wires while you attempt to relax is gonna be a small but mighty improvement to the flying experience, especially for those dreaded long hauls.
Promising review: "Works really well for my older Toyota Prius that doesn't have Bluetooth audio capabilities. I just plug it into the aux and it works. The battery lasts a long time." —ChristopherPrice: $21.99
A portable water flosser because regular flossing can be kind of a drag. This little device shoots a fast stream of water to dislodge any gunk instead. Pretty cool, huh? And it's small enough to travel with so you don't have to take any days off from oral health.
Promising review: "Was recommended by my dentist. I've seen major improvement days later with the brightness of my teeth and gums. For a person like me who does not like to floss often, this is amazing, and I'm very, very impressed. Please talk to your dentist first about this product or other water floss products so you know what is best for your teeth and gums, because everyone is different." —ShaleekaJayPrice: $19.47
An eight-piece packing cube set for anyone who's ever tried and immediately failed at keeping their luggage in check. Vacation isn't the time to fret over organization — let the cubes do it for you.
Promising review: "These bags are perfect! They hold so many clothes. I bought these because they were machine washable. I've washed them a few times now, and they are holding up perfectly! I like being able to organize everything. It's so much easier to go through the luggage when everything is sorted into bags." —KristinaPrice: $10.90+ (originally $13.99+, available in three colors)
A 45-piece tool set because half of getting things done around the house is having the right tool for the job. This basic set has all the...well...basics, setting you up for success for simple DIYs and tasks.
Promising review: "This is a great gift to give newlyweds, a college student, or anyone else starting out.

No more rummaging through a kitchen drawer to find what you need!" —RebeccaPrice: $29.88
An adhesive phone wallet pouch to keep your most important cards easily at your fingertips, but still secure. Whether you're traveling or just going about your life, it'll be nice to finally have everything in one convenient place.
Promising review: "This super cute card holder is so great. The adhesive is very sticky so that it won't fall off. And the top cover piece covers the card, so no one knows what is inside. The material is a fabric and great quality! Just what I was looking for!" —AnnikaPrice: $6.99 (available in nine colors)
A stud finder so hanging up heavier artwork safely is quick and easy. It simply utilizes a magnet, which in my DIY experience really is the most reliable way to be right on the money the first time. Patching holes is no fun, so you really want to be one and done if you can!
Promising review: "I bought this due to a recommendation online when I was frustrated with a Franklin stud finder. Most stud finders don't really work. The idea of this thing is simple: Studs on walls are used to hold up drywall and other stuff, so there must be nails and screws. This is a powerful magnet that finds those nails and screws. No more worrying about getting a false positive! No more guessing why the finder is positive in one area but not another; you thought it was right! Best purchase ever for DIY work." —YoshiPrice: $9.97
A two-pack of cereal keepers because nothing ruins a day quite like starting it off with stale Froot Loops. Bleh. Keep the best part of your day perfect with these guys. Okay, second best part of your day, coffee is the obvious winner.
Promising review: "I absolutely love these 24-cup cereal keepers — I have six of them! They are perfect for storing just about any food item, not just cereal. The size is ideal for keeping large quantities fresh, and the airtight seal ensures everything stays crisp and dry. I also appreciate how easy they are to stack, which helps save space in my pantry. These containers are sturdy, versatile, and a great addition to any kitchen. Highly recommend." —TdubPrice: $10.97
A lap desk so you can be productive in spots in your house that are more comfy than your regular old desk. Treating yourself to a little couch work is a delicious part of WFH life, and this makes it more possible. You can also use it for journaling, drawing, snacks...anything!
Promising review: "I love this desk. Everything fits perfectly on it." —DianaPrice: $34.99+ (originally $39.99, available in two styles and nine colors)
A nugget ice maker — that's right, your favorite type of fast food and restaurant ice in the comfort of your own home. Getting older is all about enjoying those little treats and comforts. You've earned it.
Promising review: "This ice machine is, in one word, awesome! Portable ice machines aren't what you usually think. I make ice all day once or twice a week, depending on consumption, and fill my freezer container. When the ice gets low, I make ice. Very convenient!" —anonymousPrice: $159.99 (originally $379.99)
An Owala water bottle so you can stay hydrated all day, every day. Straw guys and no-straw guys alike dig on this bottle thanks to its wide lip, which is kind of a "best of both worlds" situation.
Promising review: "Very sturdy, can handle being dropped and banged around without any damage or dents. It keeps the liquids and ice very cold, and the ice lasts for hours and hours. The price was a little high for a drinking cup, but cheaper than Stanley cups and same or higher quality. The top closes, and the inner straw is removable, so it's easy to clean. The ability to close the lid is better than just a straw and lid-top open like the others." —linseyPrice: $27.94+ (available in six colors)
An eight-piece packing cube set for anyone who's ever tried and immediately failed at keeping their luggage in check while on vacation. Vacation isn't the time to fret over organization — let the cubes do it for you.
Promising review: "These bags are perfect! They hold so many clothes. I bought these because they were machine washable. I've washed them a few times now, and they are holding up perfectly! I like being able to organize everything. It's so much easier to go through the luggage when everything is sorted into bags." —KristinaPrice: $10.90+ (originally $13.99+, available in three colors)
A pack of Apple AirTags to attach to any old thing you don't want to lose. Why use valuable brain power to keep track of your things when you can get some of these babies to do it for you?
A pet feeder station with drawers and compartments to tuck away bowls and the stinkin' large food bag that's always plaguing your kitchen corner. There's even an extra shelf for storing extra toys, leashes, accessories, and anything else Fido has that needs a home.
Price: $102.42 (originally $155)
A wrinkle-releaser spray if you're o-v-e-r ironing for good but still want to look sharp and put-together. Smooth your style out anywhere and everywhere with just a few spritzes.
Promising review: "I was skeptical that a spray could remove wrinkles. I took it on vacation and used it to smooth wrinkles from packed clothes. I was pleasantly surprised how well it worked." —JStarrPrice: $1.50

30 Walmart Items To Help You Get Through The Summer
A pet hair remover because pets shed more in the summer, especially if they have a double coat. This reusable roller works on carpets, couches, beds, and even clothes — and the included detailer works for small areas where the larger roller can't reach. And since this roller works by trapping fur in nylon bristles instead of sticky tape, it can be cleaned and reused over and over. Promising review: "I bought this because obviously, I have a cat. Love my cat but, she sleeps in the crook of my arm at night and I have cat hair up my nose and everywhere else. Thank you for this product, and I appreciated the thank you card included in the box. These two removers work wonderfully on the job they're supposed to perform. I love the mini detailer which is a breeze to use and is very effective at every task it tackles. Wish I had bought them 50 years ago. Excellent purchase." —JamesPrice: $13.49 (originally $21.99) An 11-quart portable cooler that has a carrying strap that you will be SO grateful for when it comes time to bust out the drinks at your next softball game or lake expedition. Keeping both of your hands free — what an innovation! Promising review: 'This small cooler is perfect for carrying a few items with a nice pink outer color. Everything I wanted to take fit nicely inside. Handy strap carrier was also a plus. Instead of tying up one of my hands, it freed it because the strap fit right on my shoulder." —DebbiePrice: $39.98 (available in two colors) A foldable camp chair, because summer presents no shortage of events where you'd like to sit, but nary a seat can be found: outdoor concerts, Little League games, trips to the beach, a three-hour line outside a bakery to get a croissant-bagel hybrid you heard about on get the idea. This chair is lightweight and folds into a carrying case, so you might want to get a few and throw 'em in the back of your car for the whole season. Promising review: "Love the bright red color and great shoulder strap to transport. So comfortable to sit in and cup holder idea. I have a small area on my outside stair landing where I wanted a chair and table. This was the perfect answer. Collapses to a minimal size to store in winter!" —auntpattix3Price: $6.96+ (available in 12 colors and in sets of two) A set of four waterproof outdoor pillows, so you can be prepared the next time you forget to bring them inside from the patio before one of those unpredictable summer rain storms. Promising review: "These pillows are so gorgeous!!!!! Definitely buying again!" —JodiPrice: $39.94 A 3-in-1 portable evaporative air cooler, because we all have a space that gets hot as the dickens, but simply cannot accommodate a traditional AC unit. (Helloooooo, stifling screened-in porch!) This air cooler operates by remote control and also works as a regular fan and humidifier, so it'll help you out all year round. Promising review: "Nashville's blazing, but this cooler's a game-changer on our patio. It's super easy to use — just add water, hit power, and you're set. I've ditched my old fan for this. Plus, the remote's a nice touch. Totally satisfied!" —Darlene GPrice: $78.95 (originally $109.99) An ingrown hair and razor bump roller for folks who may be shaving extra body hair during shorts-tank-tops-and-swimsuit-season and want to avoid the painful little ingrown nubs that often come with it. Apply right after shaving, and the formula can help soothe existing bumps and possibly prevent new ones from forming. Promising review: "I put this on straight out of the shower or bath after shaving while still damp. I use it under my arms and my bikini line. I apply three days in a row with not a one bump in sight! It also helps keep ingrown hairs at bay. Huge believer in Megababe." —CassEPrice: $13.97+ (available in one and two packs) A self-watering pot because summer vacation is great for not so great for the plants you forgot to ask anyone to water. Reviewers say that this genius pot can keep your green bbs hydrated for over a week (!) so you can enjoy your time away guilt-free, instead of worrying that you accidentally became a plant murderer. Promising review: "I struggle to get all my plants watered on time and this is such a cute and minimalist fix. It's clean and having that visual queue makes things so much easier. I got two so far but will slowly switch all my plants. 🪴 No worries if I will be out of the house for a week because I know my plants will be hydrated." —anonymousPrice: $6.72 (originally $8.96) And a glass watering globe, so your outdoor plants can stay fully hydrated, too. Fill it with water, stake it into the soil, and it'll slowly drain as the soil dries. This globe can hold water for up to two weeks! Promising review: 'Love these things. I've always had the hardest time keeping plants alive. I bought a couple of these for a peace lily and Christmas poinsettia and they are still alive months later. Just bought another for my new lily." —AmandaPrice: $3.98+ (available in one or two packs) A nine-piece pantry and fridge storage bin set because while the cookout fixings and fresh veggies from the farmers market are delish, they can also create total chaos in your fridge. These bins will not only keep things orderly — they'll also make it so you can actually see what you have. So say goodbye to your annual tradition of buying some bell peppers, and then forgetting about them ' (Yikes!) Promising review: 'I can't believe how clean this keeps my refrigerator. Now if I have something with the potential of making a mess, it goes in the bins.' —gieseler4Price: $30 A foam weatherstrip kit so you can close any gaps around your windows and doors because (extreme parent voice) what are you, trying to air condition the outdoors?? But seriously, summer air can slip in through gaps, which leads to a hotter house and a higher electricity bill. Plus, this will also help when the seasons change again (noooooo) and you need to stop the heat from leaking out. Promising review: "This stripping seal really gets the job done. My front door has a huge gap in one side on the top, and I have bought weather stripping before to try and fill it, only to have the stripping come loose and fall off in a day or two. When I saw this at Walmart, I thought I would give it a shot, and boy, am I glad I did. This weather stripping is very thick, and the adhesive sticks great! I even tested it out, and stuck a small piece of it to a piece of wood, and it would not come off. It only took me like 5 minutes to measure, cut, and install this on my door, and I did it all by myself. No more drafty door facing in my house!" —cadkins0132Price: $5.24+ (available in one or three packs) And a slide-on draft stopper for doors with an annoying gap at the bottom. This addition can be cut to size and helps keep out warm air (and bugs!) during the summer. Promising review: "Perfect fit! I had a large gap and this item fills it perfectly. I have a white door, and this blends in very well. Best of all, it requires no nails in my door — just slide it on and it's very secure. I used small hand snippers to cut it." —tinaat1013Price: $14.62 A bottle of Method degreaser and kitchen cleaner because — and I am not trying to be gross, just factual — if you spill food on your counter or stove top and don't clean it thoroughly, it will become an ant buffet in a matter of hours. Spray and wipe away messes, and it'll be like they never happened. Promising review: "Not sure how this works like it does, but it is the best at removing grease from my range top, counters, and range hood. Very nice, fresh scent." —OmymyPrice: $4.39 A package of Terro liquid ant baits, so you can deal with situations where cleaning up crumbs and grease just isn't quite enough to keep those tiny unwelcome visitors away. My home used to be Ant Central Station, but now that I put these out every May, I never see those little troublemakers anymore! Promising review: "I had tiny ants coming out of my wall over my kitchen sink. Terro saved this infestation! It took a few days so be patient. They eat the Terro liquid then go back to their nest and die. I had tried other brands but none worked. I will always go to Terro as needed." —BarblsPrice: $4.28+ (available in packs of 2,4 and 12) A Zevo flying insect trap, for anyone whose summer bug woes are more of the flying variety. The blue light lures flies and gnats, and the sticky pad catches and hides them until they're ready to be disposed of. Promising review: "This is brilliant! I have a fruit fly infestation that I've been battling for a month and NOTHING seemed able to kill them. I tried everything: apple cider vinegar, fly traps, etc. Only the Zevo fly spray seemed to kill them on contact, so I took a chance on the fly traps. Best move I've made! It caught so many flies after ONE night! Amazing! I look forward to this infestation ending soon!" —mariposa34221Price: $37.47 for two A collapsible duffel bag so you can be ready to go for spontaneous weekend trips, and know that your luggage won't take up a ton of room in your closet once you come home. Promising review: 'Had almost two years and loving them still! We got these bags last year to go on our trip out west. We chose them because they were literally the last ones on the shelf in our price range. They have been the best duffel bags we have ever owned!!! We have four of them. They have been everywhere – summer camps, grandparents, camping, and across the country. We love them! We like the color, the durability, and the collapsible part. It makes storing them so wonderful. Highly recommend!' —HeatherPrice: $13.58+ (available in two colors and in 10 packs) A pair of noise-canceling headphones because even though it's the summer, you still have to if you work from home, that can be made far more difficult by the sounds of lawn mowers, your neighbors chatting on their deck, or even your own little (nois)y angels home on summer break. These babies have a 30-hour battery life, and reviewers say the noise-canceling function works extremely well. Pop them on and you'll never know that your neighbor's kids are trying to invent a new form of water polo. Promising review: "I was skeptical because of the low price but they really work well! Noise cancelling feature is really on point. I have accidentally startled my husband a few times because he didn't hear me calling his name while wearing them. I also appreciate the lifetime warranty feature." —Macy"Lightweight, easy to turn on and off, easy to recharge. Really do block out other noises. I love that they are attractive with a shiny black finish and silver trim. I love the price. I have had much, much pricier headphones and these are superior to them in every way." —PrudencePrice: $31.48+ (originally $69.99; available in six colors) A smartphone wallet so you can show up to summer music festivals as unencumbered as possible. After all, you're there to enjoy the music and pay way too much for a hot dog, not to lug a big heavy bag around. The wallet holds three cards and attaches magnetically. Plus, it pops out and serves as a phone $19.88 An all-purpose car upholstery cleaner because whether your summer involves taking kids and dogs to the lake, or just taking yourself out for some soft serve, things can get a bit messy in your car. This foam cleaner breaks down the stuff that causes stains, like grease, mud, and spilled lattes. Plus, it comes with a built-in brush, to tackle the most truly tenacious car messes (i.e. that gum you tracked in from the town pool)! Promising review: "I use this power foam all the time to remove stains and odors from my vehicle's carpets. Having a toddler who makes big spills and messes is easier with this product. I recommend." —LayciPrice: $5.97+ (available in one- and two-packs) A 30-ounce stainless-steel mug with a built-in reusable silicone straw, so you can make this the first summer you actually stay well hydrated. Promising review: "I bought this cup a few weeks ago, and it is the best cup I have ever had! This cup has allowed me to easily triple the amount of water that I drink daily. This cup is easy to clean and carry around. I bought it in the bright pink color, so neither my husband nor grandkids can claim it for themselves. The next time I'm in Walmart, I will be buying three new cups in different colors for the rest of the family!" —SondraPrice: $9.43+ (originally $13.79; available in six colors and in one or eight packs) A pack of Clean & Clear oil-absorbing sheets to help you no longer have to deal with the "glow" (aka layer of sweat) you have hanging around your face from June through August. Promising review: "I have used these things for many years now and are the one product I can count on to reduce oil and shine on my face. Powders can get cakey and other products have a tendency to irritate my sensitive acne prone skin. These sheets suck up the oil without adding any product or residue. The package is small and convenient, easy to keep in a pocket, purse or even a wallet (one thing my brother does with his, which is also a non-makeup alternative for oily skin for men, too.) Overall, I love these things." —JammyDieselbugPrice: $6.78+ (available in single or three packs) A set of acupressure anti-nausea wristbands because there sure are a lot of fun summer activities that can make us kinda wanna barf: cruises, theme park rides, boat rides down the river.... Give these wristbands a try — you may finally be able to go on the Tea Cups, worry free. Read more about acupressure and nausea at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer review: "Excellent non-drug alternative for motion sickness. Went on my first cruise and used these for the first two days. Removed them for our beach day and never had to put them back on. The ship was rocking more at the end of the trip, but I had my sea legs! I will keep them handy for future use. Loved that they worked! Follow the instructions to make sure they are putting pressure in the right place." –GAmom26Price: $8.54+ (available in single or multi packs) A bug bite suction tool that sucks the venom right out of your skin before you can have a reaction to it — so that means no swelling, no bumps, no lotions, and no furiously scratching every single second when you think no one is looking. Promising review: "I got unexpectedly attacked by a lot of mosquitoes, and I am allergic to the bites. So, I was grateful to have the Bug Bite Thing on hand! I used it on the mosquito bites I found. I couldn't see anything come out, so I didn't know if it had done any good at all. But the bites that I used this on didn't swell up while the bites I missed swelled up a LOT! So it worked really well! Later, I used it on a very fine splinter of glass that I could barely see, and it got it right out! I highly recommend this tool!" —OstracaPrice: $9.98 A stick of Megababe's Thigh Rescue so this can finally be the year when shorts, mini-skirts, and sundresses don't mean chafed thighs screaming in agony. This anti-friction stick will help your thighs glide like buttah. Promising review: "This is the best thing I've ever used for chafing. I mean it's so great even my husband uses it. Absolutely amazing! There may be a wet or sticky feeling for a second, but that goes away very quickly and then you just feel great. You forget you are wearing it or why you had to in the first place. Obviously, depending on what you're doing, you might have to reapply, but it's worth it, people." —JessicaPrice: $13.97 A leather passport holder that also holds your driver's license or other small ID, credit cards, cash, tickets, important random papers, and a pen (!!)... Basically, if you need it to get in or out of an airport, hotel, or cute cafe during your international travels, you can fit it in here. Promising review: "Sturdy passport case that stood up to travel to Europe. Awesome color as well." —DennisInThe707Price: $7.95+ (available in 16 colors) A mini trash can so that Road Trip Season doesn't have to turn into Ridiculous Car Mess Season. Use this handy little can for food wrappers, receipts, and all the other random stuff that seems to wander into the far corners of your car and establish a permanent home. Promising review: 'Mini trash can sits perfectly in the cupholder that I don't use. Perfect for the occasional candy and gum wrappers. It's so cute. You just push the lid in and drop your trash just like a big trash can." —HeidiPrice: $3.98 A can of antifungal foot spray because no one wants to talk about it, but between wearing flip-flops 24/7, walking on damp surfaces at the pool, or just not toweling down properly after a trip to the feet can get kinda funky. This spray can help put a stop to all that. Promising reviews: "The powder spray is my favorite. I think it tends to stay on the skin better, thus doing a better job at fighting athlete's foot. The price is way better than the name brand." —Gordon Bombay IIIPrice: $5.97+ (available in one and two packs) A Neutrogena SPF 50 sunscreen stick so you don't have to worry about a bottle of traditional sunscreen spilling in your bag and getting goop on everything.

Promising review: 'I use this for quick application to my face and shoulders when I'm out in the sun for extended periods of time.

The HEPA purifier has 10 speeds, a programmable timer, four different fan modes, and smart control options. Promising review: "The fan blows cool air and has a filter acting as an air purifier. The fan also blows a lot harder than a Dyson." —anonymousPrice: $149 A Degree 72-hour deodorant so you will no longer need to carry around a deodorant and, uh, covertly re-apply throughout the day. (It's fine, we've all been we DON'T have to be there anymore.) Promising review: "This is the only antiperspirant deodorant product that actually works. It works very well.

Prime Day is 1 Week Away, but I'm Already Filling My Cart With These Summer Vacation Essentials, Starting at 75% Off
Before going on vacation, I can't help but do a little shopping. After all, my travel wardrobe usually needs a slight refresh before heading to a new destination, and there are some practical essentials I always find myself missing. Ahead of my upcoming summer vacations, I'm eyeing breezy fashion pieces, must-have tech, and more. Luckily, I just found my entire wishlist at Amazon. While Prime Day may be a week away, you can already score massive savings—and I've filled my cart with summer vacation essentials up to 75 percent off. Now, I'm sharing the best deals in my cart, starting at $5. I've been eyeing these Anrabess Palazzo Pants for months. The wide-leg silhouette ensures a breezy fit that's perfect for hot summer days, and I love that the smocked waistband creates a cinching effect. They're slightly cropped, making them perfect for petite shoppers. While I'm not petite, I love that the shorter length ensures they won't drag in the sand during walks along the beach. This summer, I'm swapping my canvas tote bag for a straw bag—and I have my eye on this now-$19 option. According to one reviewer, it's big enough to hold all your beach essentials, from a large towel to a cosmetics case. I also love that it has a zippered pocket to keep your wallet and phone secure and sand-free. I've been holding off on buying wireless earbuds for years, but I'm finally pulling the trigger on the Apple AirPods Pro 2. I'll use them on train rides, beach days, and workouts. They feature high-quality audio, noise-canceling technology, and even a transparency mode, which I'll use to stay aware while walking through crowded destinations. The B2prity One-piece Tummy Control Swimsuit has a classic yet unique design, with flattering ruching along the bust and waist. I love that I can pair this swimsuit with a pair of wide-leg pants to grab a pre-beach breakfast, and it comes in 32 stylish colors that are all marked down today. The Anrabess Crochet Swim Coverup has a high-quality, handmade look, and I can't believe it's available at Amazon for just $34. It's selling quickly, with over 2,000 shoppers purchasing it last month, and it's easy to see why. Reviewers are raving about its durable material and flattering style. I'm the type to be walking around an unfamiliar city with a low phone battery, but I'm turning over a new leaf with the Charmast Portable Charger. I love that it comes with built-in cables to charge multiple devices at once. Needless to say, I'm sure everyone will be borrowing this genius device on my upcoming girls' trip. Havaianas are trending again, and I'm snagging a pair on Amazon while they're marked down. The classic Slim Season Flip Flops come in so many colors, from this classic black option to a vibrant floral pattern. Best of all, plenty of reviewers rave about their comfort, with one shopper even calling them the 'most comfortable flip flops ever made.' At the advice of a dermatologist, I'm swapping out all my chemical sunscreens for mineral versions, and this Blue Lizard sunscreen is already in my cart. I love that it's a spray, rather than a lotion, so it will be so much easier to apply (and reapply). Plus, it's water-resistant and reef-safe. You can snag this portable handheld fan for a whopping 75 percent off today. It has two fan speeds and has 15 hours of battery life. I'm planning on keeping it in my bag all summer long to use on stuffy subway cars and sunny beaches. I'm fortunate to say that I've never lost my luggage, but I'm taking extra precautions to ensure it never happens. Many travelers swear by Apple AirTags to keep track of their checked bags, so I'm buying one while they're marked down. You can use an AirTag holder to attach them to your bags, keys, or wallet. In fact, I think I'll snag a four-pack of AirTags and keep track of all my valuables. If there's one item you don't want to be without on summer vacation, it's a beach towel. If you aren't staying at a resort or rental house that can provide one, it's best to bring along a travel-friendly option that won't take up too much luggage space. This one is quick-drying, sand-repellent, and comes with a travel bag for easy packing. Beach trips aren't just about catching a tan; it's also important to curate a good vibe. For just $22, this Soundcore speaker offers 'surprisingly good' sound and a 20-hour battery life, so you can have a personal soundtrack for every vacation moment. We tested it and loved that it's a perfect companion for carry-on-only travelers. Now all that's left to do is create the perfect summer playlist. There's nothing better than a breezy linen dress on a hot summer day. That's why this scoop-neck option is in my cart ahead of Prime Day. Currently marked down to just $64, it's a timeless option that I'll style for day and night for years to come. Stylish sunglasses are essential for any trip, and I love these best-selling aviators that are now just $15. They provide 100 percent UVA and UVB protection, so they're equally functional and fashionable. Plus, they come in 21 different colors, and they're all marked down today. I usually travel without a neck pillow, which means I always start my vacations with a neck cramp. Before taking any more long-haul flights, I'm snagging this reviewer-loved Napfun Neck Pillow. According to one shopper, it provided them 'unmatched comfort' on a 10-hour flight to Europe thanks to the soft memory foam pillow and cooling cover. Love a great deal?

I immediately went online to see if there was sunscreen for lips, and I was so excited to find this UV protectant for lips. I couldn't find any sunscreen for lips in the stores near me, so I ordered it, and it came the next day. We went on our friend's boat again, and we were very comfortable, and it worked wonderfully, and no one had sunburned lips!" —Rochelle Holloway"This SPF lip balm has been a staple for all my outdoor activities.

It has been forgotten in blizzards, NUMEROUS tropical storms, and Hurricane Henri, in which our chimney cap literally relocated cities. It still amazes me that it not only turns on, but also works great and has amazing sound. JBL has lifetime customers now." —Jordyn TaylorGet it from Amazon for $37.95+ (available in 11 colors).

Promising review: "I recently tried the Carroten Intensive Tanning Gel, and I have to say, I'm pretty impressed! It worked really fast — I started noticing a nice deep tan right away. The gel has a pleasant smell, which is a bonus because some tanning products can be overwhelming. I love that it's non-greasy and water-resistant, making it perfect for a day at the of the things I appreciate the most is the blend of carrot and coconut oil. It feels nice on the skin and keeps me feeling moisturized and hydrated, thanks to the added vitamin A and E.

With its compact and lightweight design, it's incredibly easy to handle and maneuver. The three heat settings allow for precise temperature control, ensuring that you achieve the perfect press every time. The precision tip is great for reaching tight corners and intricate designs. The ceramic-coated heat plate provides even heat distribution, resulting in professional-looking results. If you're looking for a versatile, portable, and efficient heat press, the Cricut EasyPress Mini is a fantastic choice." —elizabethGet it from Amazon for $49.

This'll melt the powder into the rest of your makeup for a seamless, glass-like blend. One/Size is a queer, Filipino-owned business founded by makeup artist Patrick Starr to ensure that makeup is really one size fits all, as it should review: "WOW Patrick, I never got your first setting spray, but you DEFINITELY got my attention with THIS new one. Of course, I've only used it once, but for me, having to use a setting spray one time makes a difference in whether I like it or not, and WOW, I am OBSESSED. The lay down on this setting spray is GORGEOUS, my new obsession." —nikkicalebGet it from Sephora for $34. And their new On 'Til Dawn Mattifying Setting Spray with SPF 28 so you can have your makeup locked in *and* get 80 minutes of sweat-resistant broad spectrum protection without a white cast or sticky feeling. Plus, reapplying will be so easy. Promising review: "Girl, you're telling me you're giving me a two-in-one.

I have these, and I'm *obsessed* with how these make my hair look. Ariana Madix, Peacock, if y'all need a new Love Island bombshell, I'm available, cuz these rollers have me ready. I used them for my first professional photoshoot, and my hair looked phenomenal. I was way more confident knowing my hair looked immaculate, seriously, it helped calm my nerves about being in front of a camera, cuz how can you not feel like the hottest thing alive when your hair is perfect? They're fairly easy to use; I just curl my hair, roll it up in these, let 'em cool, take 'em out, spray my hair with hair spray, and *voila* the most perfect blowout that looks like I just spent hours in a salon. My hair looks AMAZING lately, and the curls last all day without falling. In the gif above, I'm wearing two packs of their clip-ins in 20 and 24 inches, which I dyed red myself, then cut to layer with my real hair and give them even more volume. The combo of these full, luscious extensions + the rollers is top freaking tier. Buy the dang rollers, you won't regret them from Luxy for $35. A lightweight waterproof dry bag to take with you on any water activities you have planned and keep your things dry. It also conveniently includes a waterproof phone pouch so you won't need to add that to your *before vacation list of things to buy*. Reviewers are also using it to put their wet bathing suits in it so everything in their suitcase remains dry. Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE this bag! We took it to the water park, and I completely submerged it under the water with my phone, keys, and money inside! Nothing got wet at all!! I even used it as a float on one of the lazy rivers because they had no more floats available. Still nothing got wet! The only thing I do recommend is getting a bigger one! The smaller one only held one towel and a few other things, but not a lot." —Cheyenne StanleyGet it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in five sizes and 11 colors). An Ilia Milk Essence moisturizer, a lightweight, hyaluronic acid-packed bottle of goodness that's perfect to incorporate into your skincare routine before sunscreen and makeup.

These clear cards are truly waterproof, making them perfect for beach trips, camping, or even just playing by the pool. They handle moisture with ease and don't get soggy like regular cards. The transparent design is a fun twist, and they shuffle smoothly without sticking together. They're also incredibly durable, holding up well to repeated use in various conditions. If you're looking for a reliable deck for all-weather play, these cards are definitely worth it!" —Amanda CruzGet it from Amazon for $5.99. An Armani luminous silk foundation with "Micro-fil" magic that'll instantly smooth the appearance of texture, pores, and fine lines. Remember that magic mask from Goosebumps that kinda morphed into the little girl's skin? This'll be like that, but way less spooky. Promising reviews: "Normally I never leave reviews, but this item deserves the credit. I finally found a foundation that is a game-changer. It's silky smooth and sits perfectly on my skin. Most foundations I use end up looking 'caked on' and make my pores look big, but this one doesn't do that at all. I don't know what magic they put into this bottle, but it has worked wonders for me, and I will definitely be using this one from now on. —BFlippen"This foundation is amazing. Lightweight enough to feel like I am not wearing products on my skin, and yet enough coverage to even things out. It sits beautifully, doesn't cake, and lasts all day. As someone who typically looks for alternatives or swaps to more expensive products, this is absolutely worth the investment." —randichevGet it from Sephora for $48+ (available in two sizes and 40 shades). A three-pack of mini drink floaties so you can enjoy a hands-free dip in the pool, but still keep your bevy close by. Nothing more magical than seeing a flamingo floatie carrying your ✨margarita. ✨ Promising reviews: "Bought these as sort of a gag gift for a pool party, and they were a huge hit! Very stable and drinks didn't tip. We even had bottles of beer in ours — didn't work as well with a completely full bottle, but once you drink down past the neck of the bottle, these things work like magic. Didn't use a coozy or anything for stability, and they still worked great. Also, as an added bonus, they provided hours of enjoyment when we decided to put them on our hands and knees and try to self-propel around the pool. Laughter ensued. Memories were made." —CEFeliciano"Bought these in 2021. They are a staple of the pool. They've been through every season in Maryland, held thousands of drinks, been the center stage of pool parties, bachelor parties, pool fights, vacations, in the ocean, on a lake, down a river, used as a football, used as a bat, used as a bug swatter, sat in the baking sun, frozen in 3-inch ice several winters and they've held up. 10/10 would recommend." —HerricaneGet a three-pack from Amazon for $4.99+ (available in 10 styles). An active acne scar primer made by Topicals for those with acne-prone skin. Not only is it great for blurring pores and raised bumps for a flawless makeup application, but it also can help reduce texture over time with regular use. Makeup + skincare wrapped into one bottle?! Pinch me, I *must* be dreaming. Topicals is a Black woman-owned small biz!Promising review: "This is it. This is the one that *actually* blurs and fills in significant pitted scarring and large pores. My skin is oily/dehydrated. After years of trying every single primer available and being let down, I am astonished. On a totally bare, clean face, I press it into the scarring (don't rub, just tap it in) and wait for 30 seconds. The primer dries completely and levels itself into smoothness. I use Estée Lauder Double Wear foundation on top, and it actually stays put all day. I was worried about the silicone in this primer causing foundation separation issues, but after a 10-hour day, everything is still in place. I did look a tad oily after six hours and had to re-powder." —lcsftwGet it from Sephora for $34. A Graco convertible crib and changer with storage drawers, a full changing table, and four adjustable mattress heights that'll grow with your kiddo from crib and changer to toddler bed to daybed to two different styles of a full-size bed. Since your little ones grow quicker than you realize, and you're constantly buying new shoes, clothes, car seats, and such, wouldn't it be nice not to have to buy a new bed every year? Promising review: "The Graco Hadley 5-in-1 Convertible Crib has been one of our favorite nursery purchases. It's beautifully designed with clean lines and a modern farmhouse look that fits perfectly in our baby's room. Assembly was straightforward with clear instructions, and once put together, the crib feels incredibly sturdy and really sets it apart is its versatility. It converts from a crib to a toddler bed, daybed, and eventually a full-size bed, so we know we'll be using it for years. The built-in drawer underneath is a great bonus for storing extra crib sheets, swaddles, or diapers without needing another piece of very high-quality for the price. We feel confident knowing our little one is sleeping safely and comfortably. Highly recommend for any parents looking for a long-term, multifunctional crib solution!" —AlexGet it from Amazon for $449.99 (available in four colors and another style). A sophisticated and leakproof laptop lunch tote that's like the mullet of lunch bags. Business in the front — or, the main part of the bag, which works like a traditional tote that you can throw your laptop, wallet, notebooks, pens, and such in. And party in the back — a lil' insulated compartment that'll keep your drinks and lunch nice and cool. It'll also come in clutch for days that you feel like lounging by the pool! A hair-tools travel bag with a flap that folds out and doubles as a heat-resistant mat that you can place your flat iron on so that you don't rack up a fee for *accidentally* burning something at the hotel. The RoC vitamin C Eye Balm that's *loaded up* like Dora's backpack with peptides to firm and tighten the skin around your eyes. Since it looks like we're gonna be tired for the rest of our adult lives (sobbing, why didn't we cherish naps more as kids?!) you're gonna want this to brighten those dark, puffy, sleep-deprived eyes. Promising review: "Magic in a tube! On days when my under-eyes are a little dry and my concealer is starting to look cakey, this stuff is amazing. It's super moisturizing, lightweight, and easy to apply. Just swipe, tap in, and your concealer will go on super smooth." —JenniferGet it from Amazon for $26.99. A portable booster seat so that you always have somewhere to plop your little one down with snacks during your outdoor summer family adventures. Promising review: "These are non-negotiable! So good for spring/summer. So much easier to clean up after feedings with twin babies than high chairs. Take up nearly no space at all and are easy for on-the-go, picnics at the park, or sitting for playtime with a suction cup toy while I cook dinner. My babies love this, and I'm a huge fan as well. Wish I had these for my older two when they were babies." —Marisa BrownGet it from Amazon for $24.98+ (available in 14 colors and four styles). An alcohol-free daily brush cleaner spray that'll help you remove the caked on foundation buildup on your brush in between your monthly deep cleaning. This'll be the best $10 you've ever spent, truly. Promising review: "Exceeded my expectations! I just spray on a paper towel, and it legitimately takes off all of the makeup and dirt from my brushes, and they're like new again! So much easier than using soap or something." —HanCenzGet it from Sephora for $10. A precious teeny lil' 14-ounce Stanley Cup perfect for your little one to keep them hydrated *and* keep them matching your aesthetic. Cuz don't you love when you and your mini me pull up looking like the cutest, most fashionable duo there ever was. Now they can carry their own lil' Stanley, just like you. A BrüMate hard cooler that is just magical, truly, purely magical. It's def a step up from any cooler you've ever had — with a built-in tap to dispense your bevys (!!!), a bottle opener in the lid (*gasp*), a dry rack to keep snacks off ice, but still cold (😱), wheels, a handle, secure latches, and can hold up to 48 12-ounce cans (omg omg omg). Oh, annndd ice can last inside it for seven days! Are you shook? Cuz I surely am. An electric pool scrubber because you wanna clean out your pool so you can *finally* take a dip, but you also would rather do anything other than scrub down your pool. If you download the app, you can control this lil' summertime lifesaver with your phone, and it has smart mapping! Just plug it in and let it get to work, scrubbing your pool walls and floor. Promising review: "I don't often leave reviews, but I simply have to share. If you are considering a robot pool vacuum, stop searching. I had previously purchased a cordless vacuum that was rated the clear winner in robot vacuums. I don't know what it won, but it certainly wasn't the number one in pool cleaning. I literally watched it pass over small debris and sand and leave it behind. So I sent it back and ordered this vacuum. Hoping for the best but expecting the same performance. Boy, was I wrong. My pool was very dirty, and within one hour, there wasn't a morsel of sand or dirt in the bottom of my pool. Don't hesitate. Just buy it, you won't regret it. Sit back and relax by your clean pool." —Shelly FordGet it from Amazon for $799+ (available in seven styles). A Huda Beauty plumping lip gloss that isn't sticky and pairs gorgeously with their lip liners. Exhibit A, look at the pic below. I have four of these lip combos currently in my cart. Hydrated, smooth lips with blurred fine lines? Sign me up. Promising review: "PERFECT gloss!!! I finally found my new fave lip gloss after many failed attempts. It makes your lips look fuller, but without the tingling sensation that plumping lip glosses have. Obsessed." —kaylaluckyGet it from Sephora for $21 (available in two finishes and 11 shades) A set of freckle makeup pens to add some different shades of freckles to your gorgeous little face. If you hate when your foundation covers up your beautiful marks, grab these to bring 'em back like Winnie brought Billy Butcherson back from the dead. A rechargeable grill scrub brush because you could really go for a grilled hot dog, but you change your mind as soon as you open your grill and see how much elbow grease you'll need to clean it. Cleaning your grill just got 10 times easier. Get it from Wayfair for $38.99. A 2-in-1 knife and cutting board since half the reason that you don't cook is cuz you hate having a pile of dishes to clean up after. I mean, it's just a quick avocado toast, do you seriously need a whole cutting board? No, no you don't, thanks to this. The scissor-like thingamajig features a flat surface so you can easily slice up your veggies, then slide 'em into your dish. Genius. Beauty Pops aka your new summer fave. They're literally portable facials made from a blend of turmeric, aloe, papaya, and banana to help de-puff and refresh your face while also cooling you down from the deathly summer heat. And if they seem a bit familiar, it may be because you've seen 'em on Shark Tank. A compact Nori travel iron and steamer in case you get to the resort and there's no iron, only some expensive laundry service. It has six fabric settings, will heat up in *just* three minutes, and will get the job done super quick cuz it can get rid of wrinkles on both sides of your clothes ~at the same time~. A Kulfi Beauty hydrating crease-proof concealer that's long-lasting, conceals dark circles, hyperpigmentation, and blemishes, banishes redness, and ~illuminates~ the under eye. This stuff will give you the plumpest, most moisturized, smooth, supple, balanced skin of your life without even needing to crack open a spell book. A garment and travel bag set — are you hearing me?! Two wonderful necessities wrapped into one! It's basically a hanging garment bag that can transform Optimus Prime-style into a roomy carry-on bag *with* an anti-theft lock, thank you very much. You know what this means right? A discreet way to bring even more 'fits. You, looking at the daily brush cleaner spray: The reviews used in this post have been edited for length and clarity.
