As you may have guessed, I do a lot of online shopping. It's fun to browse products and make wish lists of items that capture my attention. Some things are cute, some are practical, and some make me slap my forehead and say, "That just makes so much damn sense!" Here, I'm recommending 37 of my favorite products from that list.
Take, for example, this purse insert that helps you easily organize your stuff, then transfer to a different bag every day. Genius! I'm also a fan of these ice molds that perfectly fit water bottles. And when I saw this cup holder for the bathtub, I skipped the wish list and immediately clicked add to cart. Read on, and I think you'll find at least one "of course!" product you, too, can't resist.
