A Squatty Potty you’ll never poop without after that first easy breezy BM, all thanks to a ~stool~. Changing your position while going #2 may prevent painful straining! Plus, you won’t have to awkwardly wait in a checkout line with it tucked under your arm.
amazon.com
Read more about constipation relief at home, including using a squatting position, at Cleveland Clinic.
FYI — Many reviewers with chronic constipation and other gastrointestinal issues swear by this!
Promising review: “I like to poop. It’s literally the first thing I do in the morning. This makes it even more enjoyable. I bought this about a month ago for my wife and I. We are pretty healthy people and have no ‘problems’ when it comes to #2. But with this you just sit down, put your feet up, and bombs away! It feels like a straight pipe coming from your colon. Remember those difficult to push out BMs? No more! With just a slight push, you are done. Gravity takes over, and out it comes. This is how the human body was designed to poop. We literally pooped like this for thousands of years! I recommend this to all my friends, who laugh at me until they try it. Stop making it hard on yourself when you poop. This is by far the best bathroom accessory you can buy!” —jjl1911
Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in two sizes and in a pack of two).
2.
A nickel foot file for turning your crusty skin problem to ~dust~ in just a few swipes. This can help tackle tough calluses and get rid of dead skin. What you do with the leftover pile of remains is your business!
amazon.com, amazon.com
Promising review: “I love this. It removed so much after one use – more than any other after multiple uses. The picture is just from one use (pictured above, right).” —ctnightmare
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in six colors).
3.
A weed cookbook if you’ve always wanted to become a pro chef with a knack for using…a special kind of greens. No bombastic side-eye from the bookstore employee, either.
Amazon
This cookbook includes drool-worthy small bites recipes like spiced superfood truffles, duck meatball sliders, carrot cake energy bites, and more!
Promising review: “Tasty recipes! Easy to understand directions. These recipes are great with or without the cannabis. This book contains many solid recipes that are great for many occasions. I can’t recommend this book enough. Try the Mac n cheese bites recipe first. The best!.” —Anna
Get it from Amazon for $19.95.
4.
A shoe spray so you can address the disturbing stench emanating from your gym kicks, especially if you’ve been avoiding the task because you didn’t wanna buy a spray at the store. Problem solved.
amazon.com
Promising review: “For some context, I am a college student. My dorm room is small and would quickly smell with a bad odor due to my shoes being taken off and left there. I use this product by spraying the inside of my shoes every time I take them off. This product does a good job at not only removing the bad smell from my shoes, but replacing it with a pleasing mint! At times, I also spray this directly onto my feet before putting my socks on. I will continue to buy this product for my shoe-smell needs.” —Chicago, IL
Get it from Amazon for $14.95+ (available in two sizes and in a pack of two).
5. A fast-acting extra-strength hemorrhoid cream when your butt is begging for mercy. You’ll potentially get sweet relief in a tube without ever having to leave the comfort of your bed. Lidocaine helps numb the pain, and glycerin helps reduce friction. The anti-inflammatory ingredients help provide quick, long-lasting relief your bum so desperately needs.
Amazon
Read more about hemorrhoids and treatment at Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: “I was hurting horribly, so I ordered this cream; I’d never used a cream before and always used a suppository. This product was a little pricey, but at this point, I didn’t care. I wanted relief! I now work remotely from home, so this affected my job as I sat all day, and even using a donut wasn’t helping! This cream is great! It gave me fast relief and shrunk the external hemorrhoids! I will definitely purchase this again and keep it on hand always! I wish I would have found this product before this time!” —Pam
Get it from Amazon for $34.95.
6.
A hefty bottle of Poo-Pourri before-you-go toilet spray that’ll help keep your bathroom smelling fresh at all times. Clicking “add to cart” has never smelled so good.
Amazon
Promising review: “One bathroom in an apartment just isn’t enough for two adults with healthy colons. Enter Poo-Pourri. It has an amazing scent. It’s very fresh and not overpowering, and it isn’t synthetic smelling. With most room sprays, you end up just smelling flowery poo. This masks the smell completely. I can walk in the bathroom 30 seconds after my boyfriend and only smell lemon.” —Allison H
Get it from Amazon for $9.84.
7.
A pack of disposable urinals, which may seem like the world’s most embarrassing purchase, but it’s quite useful for camping and road trips! Luckily, you won’t have to endure an uncomfortable in-person exchange when buying ’em.
Amazon
This biodegradable pouch is filled with a unique polymer substance, which absorbs liquid waste and turns it into an odorless, spill-proof gel.
Promising review: “As embarrassing as it is to admit, I used this in the car on a road trip. I didn’t know exactly what to expect but I was thrilled with the outcome! I pulled over, positioned myself over the bag, and it was easy peezy! The crystals absorbed the urine and there was no mess or smell. I have kids and these will work great for them too. I’m really glad I bought these. We travel with our dog EVERYWHERE and we can’t leave him in the car to stop for bathroom breaks at rest stops so these have already proven themselves perfect for traveling.” —Ella
Get a six-pack from Amazon for $18.49.
8.
A memory book because you’re not a regular parent, you’re a ~cool~ parent! If your kid’s milestones aren’t exactly suitable for the IG grid (first tantrum in the grocery store, first projectile vomit, you know — the usual), this book will help you cherish those rather odd memories you love looking back on.
Amazon
Promising review: “It’s not always about the cute stuff! This book has been a must-buy gift for all of my friends and family members who have had children or who are expecting. Everyone always gets a kick out of it and I like to think that somewhere down the road my nieces and nephews might enjoy reading it and laughing about the funny and disgusting things they put their family through. It definitely brings a much-needed sense of humor to baby books! Because we all know that it’s not always about the adorable things children do that make us laugh.” —iknwxaclywhtthysay
Get it from Amazon for $10.96.
9.
A jug of bed bug spray you might want to use expedited shipping for. At the very least, you won’t have to lug a gallon of this stuff to the cash register while letting everyone know what’s waiting for you back at home.
Amazon
Promising review: “My grandson came to visit and left something to remember him by. BEDBUGS. We tried so many products until I think the bugs waited for the new flavors. I was so frustrated!!!! I was ready to burn the house down and build a new one. I saw the reviews one dreary, sleepless night and decided to try once more. I was not disappointed. This stuff works. I mean actually works. I recommend this to anyone who hasn’t slept in months with their eyes open. You will not be disappointed.” —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $58.40 (available in two sizes).

A Tushy bidet attachment if you’re so completely done flushing money down the drain. The best part? No one will have any idea how long it took you to hop on the bidet bandwagon.
Tushy, amazon.com
Promising review: “Where has this thing been my entire life? I love it! I don’t have any complaints at all. I had no problems installing it, which surprised me because usually there’s something that goes wrong. My partner mentioned that the water is cold, but I don’t notice that, tap water temperature feels just fine to me. I’m saving so much toilet paper that I’ll pay for this in probably a year. Admittedly, I was a huge toilet paper user, I like to be clean. I’m also saving water, because I previously had to flush at least three times to make sure the toilet didn’t get plugged with excess toilet paper.” —Donna Gettys
Get it from Amazon for $78.20.
11.
A box of gas relief pills that’ll be a huge ~relief~ to buy online — instead of receiving some very weird looks from your neighbor who just happened to be at the store at the same time as you. These can minimize bloating and gas relief in a matter of minutes!
amazon.com
Promising review: “Thank goodness for these pills. These are super fast acting and so effective. I get so sick whenever I eat basically anything and these have helped so much. I can take two in the morning and I’m not in pain all day or sick if I eat. I’m ordering more ASAP.” —Nerdy Chic

Amazon, amazon.com, amazon.com
Promising review: “If cat hair is what you have then this book is what you need. Or if you have a super cat-loving mother, such as myself, then you buy this for her for her birthday and laugh your arse off at her reaction to opening this as a present. Now my mom says she’s going to make me some cat hair mittens for Christmas. One can only hope!!” —Erin
Get it from Amazon for $8.01.
13.
A bottle of Carpe antiperspirant foot lotion if you cannot stand those clammy feet for a moment longer. A few dabs of this in the morning and at night may help get those sweaty dogs under control *without* having to face a cashier.
Amazon
Promising review: “Bought this for my boyfriend who is on his feet all day and was always complaining about how sweaty his feet got. He usually had to bring at least one extra pair of socks to change into during the day. He also had to buy shoes more often because of how they smell. It would be impossible for us to get out the smell. Since he began using this product, he can’t believe how dry his feet stay ALL day. His socks don’t even smell after a full day of work. He’s now obsessed and it’s become a part of his daily routine.” —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $17.96 (also available with an applicator and in multipacks).

A balm to help treat just about any persistent skin condition you’ve been plagued with. Whether it’s ringworm, athlete’s foot, jock itch, or plain old dry skin, this stuff may just solve the problem — and you can buy it online.
amazon.com
Read more about tee tree oil: how it can help with athlete’s foot from Mayo Clinic and jock itch from Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: “I cannot believe the difference this product has made. I’ve seen a dermatologist for a rash on my armpits for over a year now with no answers, no solutions, nothing. They’ve prescribed me topical creams, steroids, antibiotics, I’ve even had two biopsies with no relief. I finally came across this stuff. The first day I used this I had relief. My symptoms were a red, EXTREMELY itchy rash in both armpits. I’m talking itchy like to the point where I could not sleep at night. It was awful. The next day I could feel and see that it helped. I was still unsure if it would actually do anything to resolve the problem entirely, but I decided I’d do an experiment and continue to use it on one armpit only so I could test the difference. The relief was unbelievable. It has been awful to not put it on my other armpit as well but I wanted to hold out until I got the stitches out so I could show the doctor the difference. If you have a weird rash that you can’t seem to find relief from, I would recommend giving this a shot. I’m so glad I did.” —Jackie

16. A wart-removing gel made with salicylic acid when you’re determined to dry out those pesky growths if it’s the last thing you do! Plus, it comes with waterproof patches for an effective, no-mess solution you’ll be so grateful you found online.
Promising review: “I had five awfully painful plantar warts on my foot for about four months. They were all about a 1/4 inch apart on the ball of my foot and I had a massive one under my second toe. It was becoming hard to walk with how painful they were. This was a Hail Mary and it worked phenomenally. The gel coats well right where you apply it. It doesn’t have an awful stench. I applied it every three to four days for a couple of weeks. I noticed the pain was less and less until I didn’t notice any. Last night I was actually able to pull and peel the remains of the dead warts out!! Kinda gross, but kind of cool. Seriously, this product works. If you have annoying warts…this is the answer!!!” —CJ805
Get a kit with the gel and 12 patches from Amazon for $12.

A box of anti-diarrhea medication worth stocking up on and taking before the you-know-what storm 💩 hits. Keep it in your bag and remember to take it prior to indulging at the all-you-can-eat buffet. Yes, this means you could potentially avoid abdominal discomfort, bloating, pressure and gas!
Amazon
Promising review: “I can’t survive without these things. I have quite a sensitive stomach and any greasy or spicy food works like Drain-O on my stomach. So if I know I’m going to have some food like that I’ll use these to settle my stomach. Without these, I would be stuck on the toilet for an hour or two. These things are a lifesaver to keep on you, and are essential for any home.” —Reviewer
Get a 12-pack of caplets from Amazon for $8.28 (also available in larger multipacks).

A nail biting polish if the phrase “old habits die hard” feels a lil’ too real. Snag this game-changing solution online and you may just ~nail~ that bad habit to the wall once and for all.
amazon.com
Promising review: “This really helps!!! I’ve been biting my nails to the nub for 24 years. I have nails now and I don’t bite anymore; that’s all I wanted. This product made that happen. It taste SO bad, I never realized how much I subconsciously put my hands in my mouth until I used this. However, I figured I should warn you/give you guys a heads up, be prepared to taste this on ANY AND ALL foods you have to eat with your hands. To me, that was a small sacrifice I was DEFINITELY willing to make to get my nails to this point. I don’t even need to use it anymore because now I’m more aware of my nails. All in all, I HIGHLY recommend this product.” —Kelsey Walton

I’m going to buy more. I’m also very white, so you can see imperfections more easily if I’m not tan, and this helped a lot.” —AM_Mama89

It never worked til I bought this one. Let me tell you it only took just under a week to see GREAT results. It’s pretty much gone and it’s been less than 2 months. Buy it and don’t think about it!
