These socks come in one size, but reviewers ranging from women's size 5.5 to men's size 11 say they fit!

Promising review: "These socks brighten my day every time I wear them. I love that they hold hands and have other sock friends to hold hands with. I gave the second pair to a coworker so we can high-five throughout the workday. Makes our hard days better and our good days even brighter!" —AK Lady

Get two pairs from Amazon for $12.34 (available in black, white, and a black and white combo).

Promising review: "If this isn't the cutest thing EVER! I use it for carrying my ponytail holders, bobby pins, etc. in my purse. I totally heart it." —Pudingal1

Promising review: "I got this for a coworker who had been stressed out lately and happens to love chicken tenders/nuggets. She loves it and has kept it in her office. Everyone comments on how cute the nuggets are and can’t resist picking them up." —pantone76

Get it from Amazon for $13.69+ (available in 15 designs).

Promising review: "We had no good place to put a toilet paper holder in our bathroom layout, so this was a cute and perfect solution! We get so many compliments on it from guests. Plus, they never have to go searching if a roll runs out. Great quality and color looks exactly as shown; can hold up to 4 rolls of toilet paper." —Kelli

Get it from Amazon for $27.25. (also available in eight other animal designs).

I've written about this book so many times and decided it was about time I get *myself* one, especially because my screen time makes me feel reaaaally bad about myself sometimes. I've made a lot of unnecessary purchases in my life, but this is one of the best ones — I use it so much that it's starting to feel like a necessary purchase. Let me preface this by saying that I did not draw that pic above (I can't take credit for it). Whenever I have my friends over, I hand them this book and let them draw something in it (hence the amazing drawing of the house in space), and everyone loves it, even if they don't have a single artistic bone in their body. Let me just say, my boyfriend is the least artistic person to have ever walked this earth IMO, and he loves doodling in this book! I spend so much time drawing silly little pictures that my screen time has actually gone down (now why did Apple make that a feature...)! It's so entertaining, and it truly amazes me how much joy can come from a book that's the size of my hand. 

Promising review: "Saw it one day when I was just browsing. That’s usually dangerous, I know. It’s actually heavier than I thought it would be, in a good way though. It’s not cheaply made. I’ve gotten a few laughs from people in other vehicles. The only side effect is if you get upset at other drivers, it isn’t very intimidating when you’re giving the mad stare. LOL. I was pleased with the purchase in all." —Charles Ramsey

Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in eight animals). 

Promising review: "This is so cute. I'm so happy with this. I'm not sure how they managed to keep this from swinging all over the place like some things that you hang on your rearview mirror, but this doesn't do that. Maybe it's the two-string design. Whatever it is, I appreciate it. I forget it is there. It's big enough to see but not overbearing in size. It is really nice quality and a nice weight. I am pleased with my purchase." —Rebecca

Get it from Amazon for $8.89 (available in eight duck styles with different accessories).

This little dancing dude is 17 inches tall! It uses 9-volt alkaline batteries (must be new) or an AC adapter — using an AC adapter with the proper specs is the recommended choice for best performance.

Promising review: "I opened the package and screamed for joy! As I placed the 9-volt battery, my hands were trembling with what was going to happen next! As I turned on the wacky waving inflatable tube man, I knew I have a friend for life. Someone you can really count on cheering you up when you are feeling down. He brought me such joy I started to cry with laughter and happiness." —Robert Wurstner

Promising review: "These slides are so comfortable and fun. Feels like a cloud. I receive many compliments on them. I wore them almost every day this summer, on normal days, to the river, camping, and they’ve held up very well. When they fall apart, I’ll be ordering another pair lol." —Hanna

Get them from Amazon for $19.99 (available in women's sizes 4–13 and 12 colors/styles).

Promising review: "This dino chicken nugget pillow is a real Jurassic dream come true! It's the perfect cuddle companion for all the paleontologists-in-training or anyone with an insatiable appetite for comfort. Just be careful not to accidentally take a bite while you're napping, because it looks deliciously deceiving!" —LadyTee

Get it from Amazon for $12.49+ (available in three dino shapes, two sizes, and in multipacks).

Promising review: "I am always using super drying products on my face to target this annoying adult acne I now have, but that causes flaky skin. I have sensitive skin so there are only so many affordable store-bought scrubs I can use, and so far the ones I've tried don't do enough or anything at all. The FIRST TIME I used this I literally watched my pores get cleaned out and my skin wasn't irritated at all by the ingredients. The scent is very pleasant and not too strong at all I think. It seems like it will also last awhile because I really used the heck out of it the first day because it was working so well and my pores are deeply clogged. When I was done, my face looked SO much better and was super smooth; I was really amazed that this tiny little Tako could do that. I love this thing!" —Diane Delfino

Promising review: "I love this little guy. I found him on a BuzzFeed list and had to have it as soon as I saw it! I’ve minced as many as five cloves in it in seconds. It’s a little tricky getting all of the garlic out once minced (I use a silicone basting brush to get most of it but I always use more than the recipe calls for anyway so it’s not a deal breaker). Cleanup is a breeze because he goes right in the dishwasher!" —Barbie

Get it from Amazon for $12.95 (also available as a peeler and a rocking crusher).

Promising review: "Absolutely love my Nessie bookmark. The product looks exactly like the images on the website. It's very durable and gives me a small boost of serotonin every time I pick my book back up to read. I've already gifted to a few people." —Brisag64

Get it from Amazon for $9.95 (also available as an astronaut and spaghetti).

Promising review: "I got this for my birthday. I love it so much! It's completely functional and super easy to clean. The best part is that it's fun! She just sits in the soup, hanging out, watching everyone enjoying their soup, waiting to be useful." —SKW

Get it from Amazon for $16.95+ (available in two sizes, four colors, and in other styles).

Promising review: "It’s half my height and it’s softer than I expected it to be. Takes up a good portion of my bed. It came inside a vacuum-sealed bag, and it fluffed up in seconds. It was not flat whatsoever. My dog thought it was real 😂. Just took a nap with it. Very comfortable, especially when I sleep in the fetal position. It looks very realistic and goes well with my France Countryball plush. Would 100% recommend." —Emily C.

Get it from Amazon for $30.99+ (available in three sizes).

Promising review: "Absolutely gorgeous. It gives my kitchen a fun dopamine kind of vibe! Perfect length." —Chia Seeds

Promising review: "Honestly, I saw this tarot deck and thought I needed this for ha has. But man. This deck’s images are hilarious. It’s so much fun, and I felt so drawn to it as soon as it was in my hands. I am smitten over these kittens. 😍 10,000% worth the purchase!" —Kathryn Prouty

It's fixed with two screws in the back so you can nail it into a tree or your fence. 

Promising review: "We love this purchase. We bought it to try and get the squirrels away from the bird feeders. They found it and used it within minutes of me loading it up. Such a fun, new addition to our front yard!" —McKay P.

Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in three wood finishes and three umbrella colors).

Promising review: "Such a cute little item. Giving this to my friend for her birthday. It's one of those things you didn't know you needed 'til you see it." —Theresa Jenkins

Get six magnets from Handy Cute Art on Etsy for $10.50 (originally $14).

And check out this creative reviewer, who used the magnets as cake toppers!

Promising review: "Hilarious and perfect for our fridge. It is a little unsettling how real some of them look! I will be buying more colors of them. The magnets have varying strengths, but I think that has to do with the way the sushi is around them. They hold up an average sheet of paper or photograph just fine, though!" —Katherine Storm

Get a set of eight from Amazon for $13.99.

Promising review: "I love this SO MUCH. I embrace my inner snail every time I wash my face. It's soft but not too fluffy and thick. It has a nice stretch, but it's also not too loose where I feel like it's falling. Buy some for you and your snail friends :)" —sam

Get it from Amazon for $5.99+ (available in 18 colors).

Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE my Mystic Pickle!!! Thank you, Dr. Dingus, for this magnificent creation of arcane ability. He's already told me that now is the time to get a lottery ticket, and I'm thinking my chances have got to be way above average — the Mystic Pickle cannot lie!!! Each question I've asked has been met with wisdom greater than the greatest minds combined! It's the perfect size to hold, very lightweight, and the sound quality is great! He's destined to function for decades! From an American family-run company — BONUS! If you do not buy your own Mystic Pickle, you are missing out!!! BUY ONE NOW!!!" —Scordra

And yes, if you've seen Studio Ghibli's Princess Mononoke, you'll probably recognize these adorable creatures (also known as kodama) from that film!

Promising review: "I have actually bought a couple of packs of these. I think they’re so cute and fit so well in a little plant or around the house. Sometimes, I like to let my friends pick out some little guys as members of their families.  Plus, did I mention how cute they are? And they glow in the dark very well." —Jen

Get a set of 20 from Amazon for $9.69+ (available in three colors/styles as well as a set of 10). 

Promising review: "This is so cute AND useful to hold your stirring spoons. With the claws being silicone, they can expand to hold different thicknesses of spoon handles. The lower body of the crab detaches, allowing you to use the bottom claws to hold cooking utensils too! Love this kitchen tool!" —Catherine R. Yacola

Get it from Amazon for $12.95 (available in two colors and other novelty styles).

Promising review: "I have sensitive ears and only wear light earrings. These are light, were fine in my ears, and I got so many compliments. I adore them! Highly suggest!" —Emily J. Fuller

Promising review: "This product is a little smaller than maybe what I was expecting. But, regardless, it is still very comfortable. I spend a lot of my time sitting on the computer but don’t have a legitimate desk chair, and this has definitely been a breath of fresh air for my rather unforgiving wooden kitchen chair. Plus, I was looking for something cute and fun to bring some more color to my apartment, and this adorable duck definitely accomplishes that. I think it would be extra perfect for kids, too!" —Claire Rorick

Promising review: "Otto fits right in. Exactly what I was looking for. It's perfect as a footrest. It comes with little discs to put on the legs to even it out and keep it from wobbling. Took a little fiddling with but eventually got the legs level." —Panda

Get it from Amazon for $75.59 (clip the coupon on the product page to get it for this price).

Promising review: "I have trichotillomania and really love these little guys. They help refocus my habit, and the pull is very satisfying and realistic.

Promising review: "I was really excited when I got this kit. It comes with all the tools you need, including a variety of colors, and it inspires such fun creature ideas! It also includes a QR code that takes you to several (short) tutorials for different shapes, and teaches you the basics of needle felting! I thought it was going to be much harder than it was. (You don’t even need to watch the whole tutorial to pick it up.) I actually bought the same kit for a friend who loved it also!" —Kt
