    39 Things Under $10 That'll Make Your Life So Much Easier

    It's the little things (with little price tags) that can make a big difference!

    1. A face mask-mixing kit because you and I both know it'll be so much easier to use than whipping up your holy grail Aztec Secret mask and ACV in a cereal bowl and applying it with your fingers.

    2. Grocery bag carriers to help cut out a few trips from the car to the house

    3. A stormproof match kit will earn its keep while camping or in an emergency kit. (Though hopefully you'll never have to put them to the test under duress.)

    4. A wrinkle-releasing spray ready to revive that wrinkled shirt you found crumpled on the floor of your closet the morning of a job interview.

    5. Slow cooker liners that'll lure you into using your fave lazy-day kitchen appliance even more often — so now you're up to 6x a week. (Ain't no shame in that game.)

    6. A 30-pack of cute needle threaders for speeding up sewing repairs and big cross-stitching projects.

    7. Double-glide shower hooks so you won't have to do gymnastics to replace a gross liner or take down a shower curtain for washing.

    8. A bottle of V.I.Poo for deadening treacherous toilet smells before they can happen.

    9. Magic Erasers that'll remove scuffs and crayon marks from walls, grease from cooktops, gross bathroom residue, and about a million other unsightly household evils.

    10. An odor eliminator to toss in any place that's smelling a little funky, even after you've sprayed half a can of air freshener.

    11. A color-correcting primer for reducing redness and making your foundation stay in place throughout the day.

    12. ~Washable~ makeup-removing cloths to get the stuff your cleanser left behind without having to buy stock in cotton balls.

    13. An adorable sponge-drying rack that'll help encourage regular cleanings and also hold onto it when you're not using it to make yourself look *even more* gorgeous.

    14. A small but mighty knife sharpener for transforming your lackluster cutters into safer, sharper instruments.

    15. A 16-inch bottle brush to *truly* clean out wine bottles you wanna reuse or your water bottle that you're always a little worried is secretly growing mold in its aluminum depths.

    16. A stainless-steel bar that'll help get rid of funky food odors from your hands. Yes, stainless-steel appliances can also do that but then you *also* have to worry about cleaning fingerprints off your fridge after.

    17. A 60-pack of tabbed sticky notes you can stick in your textbooks and write on, so you don't have to worry about the student store refusing them after finals.

    18. Sheet suspenders to keep your fitted sheet from creeping up on the corners once and for all.

    19. A microwave soup mug that'll be drastically more convenient to use for a can of soup than a pot and the stovetop that always heats up your home by 10 degrees.

    20. A magnetic bottle opener you can use with *just* one hand. And it'll even catch the cap for you.

    21. Elastic shoe laces so going through airport security — or kicking off your sneakers as soon as you get home — will be dramatically quicker.

    22. A two-sided pumice stone made to tackle calluses on your feet from hitting the mean city streets and being too busy to actually pay for a pedicure.

    23. And a pumice stick for your toilet that'll finally erase those hard-water stains on the bowl that had you saving up for a new porcelain throne.

    24. Micellar cleansing water to ~gently~ remove stubborn long-wearing makeup without tons of scrubbing. (Your skin will thank you.)

    25. Low-key door bumpers that'll make the biggest difference in a family full of cabinet slammers.

    26. A flat whisk to do the job of a balloon whisk without making you curse under your breath as you hand-wash it.

    27. Makeup-erasing pen for fixing an eyeliner smudge here or there instead of having to start over from square one.

    28. And some shadow shields to fight against fallout the next time you're trying to recreate a 10-step eye look from your go-to Insta MUA.

    29. A four-pack of dip clips that can satisfy your saucy appetite without getting hounded for double-dipping in the communal dip bowl.

    30. Drain snakes to help target hair clogs without pouring a bunch of chemicals down your pipes — turns out, old pipes are not a fan of that!

    31. A travel-size laundry bag you can easily ID as your own AND tote to the machines without pulling a muscle in your back. Again.

    32. A trio of toothpaste tube squeezers ready to help you put off a trip to the store for a couple more days.

    33. A pair of multipurpose lighters for putting more (safe) space between your hand and whatever you're trying to light.

    34. Ziplock bag holders that'll serve as an extra set of hands when divvying up leftovers or meal-prepping freezer dump dinners.

    35. A flexible sink caddy that can hang around your faucet or — if you're lucky and have a double sink — can wrap on your sink divider for lots o' storage options. .

    36. A travel first-aid kit with all kinds of essentials that'll cost you about the same amount as an emergency box of bandages purchased at the drugstore for that paper cut that just won't quit.

    37. A shopping list notepad you can stick to your fridge and mark off as you run out of things — lest you plan a spaghetti dinner and then realize once the sauce is going that you're noodle-less.

    38. Goo Gone I used to remove sticky residue of (DECADES-OLD?!) magnets from my apartment fridge and you'll find so many uses for in your own home.

    39. A pair of contoured eye masks so the light will really and truly stay out of your peepers AND you can flutter your lashes as you awaken from a five-hour nap.
