If You Haven't Heard Of These 43 Clever Things, You're Really Missing Out

Amazon

Take it from someone who's never been able to pass up on an impulse purchase: It's usually a good idea to stick with the clever Amazon products that have tons of positive customer reviews. Why? Because if you're going to whip your wallet out and buy something without a second thought, it might as well be something that's enjoyed by the masses. Plus, if it's praised by thousands of customers and you don't get it, you might feel like you're missing out.

I mean, let's face it: There are so many brilliant products available online that it's hard not to buy them at moment's notice. I'm talking about organizers that keep your trunk looking tidy, adjustable stands for your laptops, and scrunchies with hidden pockets for cash. And don't get me started on the miniature vacuum for your desktop, because I've already added it to my cart.

Oh, and have I mentioned that a lot of it comes with free, two-day Prime shipping? Because if that doesn't get your inner impulse shopper itching, I don't know what will.

We only recommend products we love and that we think you will, too. We may receive a portion of sales from products purchased from this article, which was written by our Commerce team.
