amazon.com, amazon.com

Promising review: "So far I have had these for a few weeks and I wear them way more than my Bombas. To be honest, I think the quality of these has been pretty comparable! My husband is picky with socks, so I encouraged him to give them a shot during his workout, and he loved them! I got both white and gray. Highly recommend both." —Morgs

Price: $14.36+ (available in sizes S–XL and eight color packs)

2. A Simplehuman pet food storage container with an airtight seal for storing your pet's food. This will keep their kibble fresher for longer and keep out any ants that may be looking for a little snack.

amazon.com, amazon.com

Promising review: "Keeps kibbles fresh as advertised. I buy my husky’s kibbles from Costco...so huge! I used to put it in a plastic container (the ones everyone has), and the rest was left in the bag with a chip clip. My husky would eat kibbles alone the first day, but then hardly would touch (unless I added a lot of meat and rice) otherwise. Now she eats her kibbles as if I opened a new bag. Also happy that the whole bag from Costco fits, so no more chip clip! It’s pricey but worth it in the long run." —HH

Price: $119+ (available in three sizes and three colors)

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "These are so cute and very easy to set up. I have my hairclips and scrunchies in them. I love that they are stackable, so they don't take up too much space.

If you're thinking about getting them, I highly recommend them!" —Dog_Mom

Price: $9.99 (also available in two other sizes and six colors) 

10. A high-end bottle of Takesan Kishibori soy sauce, because it's the condiment that goes with pretty much every savory dish. Sure, you could buy the regular ol' stuff from the grocery store, but this stuff is richer and more complex (and honestly tastes waaaay better). 

www.amazon.com

Promising reviews: "This is my go-to soy sauce for sushi and all Japanese dishes. The depth of flavor from aging in oak barrels is obvious, as is the nuances in the flavors, compared to the sauce aged in stainless steel. I always have a bottle in reserve." —CN

"A few years ago, a food blog evaluated soy sauce brands and put this one on top. The usual Kikkoman is fine, but this is better. I gave it a try, and... Well, now Amazon reminds me that I've purchased this product four times already. That says something; it's not like I go through soy sauce that fast. As artisanal products go, this is affordable. It's worth the experiment!" —Esther

Price:$13.99

Promising review: "Absolutely stunning! I bought this dishware set for my mom; however, once I saw it, I knew I needed a set for myself! The orange rust-colored glaze is beautiful! The dishes are also quite heavy, so they feel very luxurious, especially for the price. The size of the dishes is perfect as well. I love that you get four different sizes of bowls/plates, so it’s perfect for every occasion. Just from the few times we’ve used the dish set so far, it really has held up well. There are still no visual blemishes from what we can tell. Overall, a great purchase!!!!" —Danny_bear

Country Chic Paint is a family-owned small business that specializes in all-in-one paint. 

Promising review: "I've bought a total of four of these things. I went on a kick of painting all of my generic black/dark brown Ikea furniture. I used this on both the shiny/smooth furniture and the wood furniture, and it worked well on both of them. It definitely worked better on the wood furniture, though. The paint was unexpectedly very easy to use, and the color came out a LOT prettier than expected! It was easy to clean off my hands and brushes, and the paint came right off my clothes in the wash as well. Overall, I'm very very pleased with this paint and will purchase more if I need any crafty paint in the future." —Anna
