Amazon Prime Purchases - December

December was a big prime month just like November. I bought lots of last minute items, or items that I couldn't find in the store. What did you buy last month from Amazon Prime?

Blackstone Griddle Grill Cover

I bought Rory the Blackstone 28" Griddle Grill that I posted on my Men's Gift Guide, so I had to get him the cover to go with it to protect it. The Griddle Grill has been a huge hit and he was very happy with the gift!

No Poreblem Primer

This was my seventh time purchasing this stuff on Amazon. So I am sure you can tell how much I use it and love it.

Kids/Small Velvet No Slip Hangers

I bought these a few years ago for the girls and I knew they would be needing more after their birthday and Christmas. These are the best!

Melissa and Doug Cookie Dough Cutting Set

I bought this as a birthday gift for the girls. When they opened it last week, they loved it. They love playing pretend and baking/cooking!

Adjustable Phone Tripod

This was a gift for Rory. When we were in a store a few weeks ago, he said it would be great to have one of these, so I made note of it and got him this one. This is how we took many of our Christmas evening photos.

Silicone Back Scrubber

The girls and I have silicone loofas and Rory complained that every time he buys a back scrubber that they get moldy and gross quickly. With this one, he can put it in the dish washer to clean it. Plus this is the extra long one so perfect for mens backs.

Adjustable Phone Stand

I bought this so I can conduct my interviews of my applicants and not hold my phone anymore. It has been a game changer.

Bona Floor Cleaner Refill

I love my steam mop, but sometimes I just want to get the floors clean quickly. I have a Bona mop as well (which is like a Swiffer wet mop but uses plant based cleaner) and I needed to vacuum and mop the floors Thursday quickly before heading over to my parents. This is the mop and cleaner that I use when I don't have an hour to mop the house.

Zinc Tablets

I needed some zinc tablets since I couldn't find them in stores, so I bought them on Amazon. We have been taking them daily as they are supposed to help prevent you from getting Covid.

Melissa and Doug Diner Set

I bought this for the girls birthday, but they ended up getting it from their grandparents. They each got a set, so I returned mine and the girls are getting something else. Maybe something to store all the food and things like this. Ha.

Universal Socket Tool

This was a stocking stuffer for Rory. He needed something that can fit any bolt. We sometimes have a hard time finding the right socket wrench and this makes it so much easier.

Premium Corkscrew

I got this for Rory's stocking as he needs to put this in his truck. Whenever we go camping or to Graeagle in his truck, we never have a wine opener. This will change that.

Gear Ties

This was another stocking stuffer. You can use these gear ties like a twisty tie, but they are reusable and sturdier.

Rock Paper Scissors Egg Game

I saw these on another website, but they sold out quickly, so I went to Amazon for them. The girls love playing rock, paper, scissors and now they can play against each other and us on the go. It came with four eggs.

Disney Princess Wallet

This was also a stocking stuffer for the girls. They have been asking for a wallet to put their tooth fairy money in, and I knew this one would be a huge hit with them.

And that was it for the month. Did you buy a lot on Amazon last month?

    1. Rory likes the socket because it fits all sizes and you don't have to look for the correct size. Rory loved the gear ties too!

  2. Such fun finds! Zachary said he wants a phone tripod, but I wonder if he'd really like a phone stand just to not have to hold it!

  8. That Melissa and Doug set is so stinking cute! I'm almost tempted to buy it and we don't have any kids! LOL! I bought a lot of gifts last month and very few things for myself. This month, though, there are a lot of necessities I need to catch up with. And then there is the need for a spending freeze at this point because I WAY over did it on Christmas! HA!

    1. It is sooo easy to use and you can use the clicker to take photos and not set your phone timer. You should totally break it out!
