Products you buy through our links may earn us a commission. Oh, and if something's out of stock, oops, it was there (and all prices were accurate) at time of publication.

Another month, another roundup of Amazon finds. My Amazon app has a lot of incredible saves lately — from everyday problem-solvers to products that’ll keep my small space organized. Most of these products will arrive in two days or less (if you’re a Prime Member), so scroll on for time-saving products that’ll provide satisfaction after every use.

A smart stocking stuffer for college students…

I came across this Nightcap Scrunchie and it’s one of the smartest safety products I’ve seen. This scrunchie has a hidden pocket that contains a fabric cap for your drink. It’ll prevent anyone from tampering with your drink (along with preventing spills). There’s even a hole for a straw. Keep it on your wrist or in your bag during a night out.

A foldable wash basin for camping…

This durable basin has long, sturdy handles and folds into a small pouch. It’s made of a water-resistant material and can be used for just about anything. Use it as a cooler, a portable sink, a wash basin for dishes, or simply to carry tons of gear. We’d suggest keeping it in your car for any last-minute trips. ({{dynamicPrice}}, Amazon)

Spiral hair ties that won’t cause creasing…

I love these plastic scrunchies. They always keep my hair securely in place without any uncomfortable tugging. While they might stretch out after a couple uses, you can blow them with a hair dryer or drop them in hot water and they’ll shrink back to their original shape. ({{dynamicPrice}}, Amazon)

The glass tumblers I love for my at-home matcha lattes…

Drinking out of these cups is so satisfying — and I can’t really figure out why. I think it’s because of the ritualistic component of making my own afternoon matcha at home, and knowing that these special cups are just for that moment. This set comes with bamboo lids that have a secure silicone seal and matching borosilicate glass straws. The glass is temperature-resistant, so you don’t have to worry about your drinks being too hot. Once you drink from these, you’ll never want anything else. (19.99/4-pack, Amazon)

An electric back massager pillow…

This deep-tissue pillow has four nodes on each side that’ll rotate every minute to knead your muscles. You can place it at the base of your neck to massage your shoulders and neck, or you can place it along your legs and feet to relieve any muscle tension. It’ll automatically shut off after 20 minutes, and it even has a Velcro strap to keep it securely in place. ({{dynamicPrice}}, Amazon)

An odor- and stain-eliminating spray for pets…

While I don’t have pets yet, this is sitting in my cart so I can be prepared. The lemon-scented spray is packed with enzymes and an odor neutralizer to cut through any pet-related messes. Spray on the stain, let it soak, cover with a towel or a weighted object, vacuum the mess away, and repeat. You can use it on pretty much any surface, from upholstered furniture and carpet to hardwood floors and bedding. ({{dynamicPrice}}, Amazon)

A boring product I didn’t realize I needed…

All of my batteries are sitting in a clear bin under my kitchen sink. This Battery Daddy Storage system is something I’m eyeing so that I don’t have to rummage around to find the battery I need.

Under-bed storage that’ll keep your clothes protected and organized…

As a shopping editor, I’ve seen all kinds of under-bed storage that are usually flimsy and leave you feeling more disorganized than before you started. This spacious set of two from Amazon has thick zippers, strong pull handles, and a see-through exterior so you can clearly see what you’re storing. I love that these rotate and move on wheels to make accessing them even easier. They’re also water- and dust-proof. ({{dynamicPrice}}, Amazon)

Some rechargeable light bulbs solving a months-long problem…

When I moved into my new apartment, I discovered that there was a wall missing an outlet where I wanted to place a lamp. I’ve looked at cordless lamp options, but having to recharge the entire lamp is frustrating. I haven’t been able to find a fix until I came across these light bulbs. They’re rechargeable and can be adjusted with a remote control. ({{dynamicPrice}}, Amazon)

Some adorable curly glass straws…

As I mentioned earlier, my afternoon matcha ritual means a lot to me. These colorful glass curly straws have added more joy to said ritual. They’re made of borosilicate glass so they’re extra-durable, and they come with two cleaning brushes. I just brush them through a couple of times before I put them in the dishwasher.

Another hobby that I’ve gotten into post-move is coloring. I have a couple of coloring books that I reach for, but I’m intrigued by the ones from this artist.

A hamper for anyone who hates doing laundry…

I’m a firm believer that if you hate doing a certain chore, buying certain products to make it more enjoyable is a game changer. This hamper from Joseph Joseph has two compartments so you can separate darks from whites. The best part? The inner liner of each side is removable with handles so you can easily transfer them to your laundry room. Pair with my latest favorite fancy detergent. ({{dynamicPrice}}, Amazon)

Lids that’ll make your Stanley actually leakproof…

The most annoying part about Stanley’s Quenchers is that they create some of the worst spills. These lids fit snugly and will make your go-to tumblers actually leakproof. This one has a collapsible straw built into the top. Buy these for everyone who’s Stanley obsessed. ({{dynamicPrice}}, Amazon)

This tabletop lazy Susan allows guests to easily serve themselves. It comes with tracks and eight trays that you can customize based on the size of your table. To use, fit the tracks together and place a number of heat-resistant trays on top (depending on how many dishes you’re serving). Guests can glide dishes to their seats when it’s time to eat.

A portable charger key chain…

Some portable chargers are too heavy or clunky to take on the go. This one is light enough to fit on a key ring and can charge multiple devices at the same time. It comes with both a lightning cable and USB-C cable, so you don’t have to travel with extra cords. I love using it to charge my laptop anytime I’m working from a coffee shop.

A decorative acrylic tray you can customize…

This scalloped tray has a magnetic base that allows you to display any mementos, photos, fabric, or scrapbook paper at the base.

A set of ingredient keepers for an organized pantry…

This is another great Amazon find for anyone who loves to bake. These canisters will keep your go-to baking ingredients fresh and airtight. What sets them apart from other basic canisters is that each one comes with magnetic accessories that sit neatly on top. You’ll get a terra-cotta tamper for brown sugar, a leveler, and dusting spoons. I love the mini canister for storing sprinkles or baking soda. ({{dynamicPrice}}, Amazon)
