Many people routinely rack up giant credit card tabs in the course of their Amazon shopping. But if you’re trying to save money, you may need to be more judicious about the items you purchase.
The good news is that Amazon’s inventory is truly massive, so you can browse the site and find plenty of useful items at a very reasonable price point. Here are a few bargains you might find this week for less than $20.
1. DaCool Insulated Lunch Containers
Bringing lunch in from home is generally a far less expensive option than buying it at a restaurant or cafe near your office. And even if your office doesn’t have a fridge or microwave, this insulated container will prevent your lunch from getting warm or cold. It features a 16-ounce capacity and is available in pink or blue. The price point for the former is $16.99, while the blue version will cost you $15.99.
2. Mindfulness Coloring Book For Adults
These days, coloring books aren’t just for kids. For many adults, they’re a way to relax, de-stress, and keep your fingers busy so you’re not biting your nails, picking away at your cuticles, or engaging in other such nervous habits. This mindfulness coloring book costs just $6.99, and it features 50 animal and flower mandalas to color in.
3. Apetpup Dog Toys for Aggressive Chewers
Have you ever brought home a toy for your dog, only for your furry friend to rip it to shreds within minutes? If you’re tired of throwing your money away on dog toys, try this one from Apetpup. At a price point of $13.99, it may cost a little more than what you’d normally spend on a chew toy. But if it lasts 10 times as long, it’s worth the money.
4. Smart Planner Pro
Many of us opt to organize our lives electronically these days. But if you prefer to take an old-school approach, and your “stick a Post-It everywhere” method just isn’t cutting it, then it may be time to upgrade to an actual planner where you can write down your appointments. You can buy an 8.6 x 5.7-inch Smart Planner Pro for just $17.99, and it could be your ticket to mapping out your days in a stress-free manner.
5. EINSKEY Sun Hat for Men/Women
If you’ve spent the better part of July nursing a sunburned face, then it’s time to break that pattern. And a good way to do so is to invest in a wide-brimmed bucket hat that will give you all of the sun protection you need. Enter this unisex EINSKEY hat, which comes in a variety of colors. It’s foldable, so you can stick it in your bag and bust it out as needed. An investment of $17.99 might spare you a world of actual hurt.
One thing you should know is that if you’re not an Amazon Prime member, your order will need to total $25 for you to avoid a shipping charge. But if you’re already signed up for Prime, you get fast free shipping on orders of any size. So if any of the above items sound appealing to you, you may want to scoop them up before they sell out, or before their prices increase.
