The Best of Amazon: My Favorite Items

One of my vices that continued after the pandemic was online ordering. I was using Amazon for every-thing, often forgetting what was in the box sitting at my door. It’s ok though, it was like opening presents and guessing what’s inside! Other than the ease of ordering from your couch at any time of day, Amazon carries items I can’t find near me, often with the best price compared to other brick and mortar stores. Below is a small list of items I love and how to find them on Amazon.

Bissell Crosswave Pet Pro
