Confession time. I've purchased over 300 items on Amazon so far this year. My husband thinks this is an addiction and I should seek help ASAP (let's be honest he's probably right). But I think it's an opportunity to tell the world about my faves, which is why I've spent the last 3 days sifting through my last 300 purchases to find the best ones.

I also pride myself on my expert gift-giving abilities, and a lot of my purchases were for my family, friends, and coworkers - so even if you don't see yourself using one of these handy gadgets, keep it in mind as a gift for a friend!

We hope you find these products as awesome as we do. Just an FYI: We are a participant in the Amazon affiliate program, and may receive a share of sales from links on this page. Prices on Amazon fluctuate so anything mentioned below might change as soon we publish it!

Here are the 37 Amazon gadgets that actually changed my own life or, if it was a gift, the life of a friend or family member. Enjoy!
