Review:“Wow, did this ever work great! It’s so exciting to get a product that actually does what it promises. Getting rid of used oil is always such a pain. This made it so easy. I just reheated my oil, poured this stuff in, forgot about it for a while, came back and it popped right out of the pan. I"m glad I bought 2 packages. Now I have a good supply.” -SakeSan

Review:“I absolutely love this lighter so, so very much. Use it for low candles, incenses etc! This thing is perfect.. One thing I’ve noticed though. There must be a high frequency noise because anyone I use it, my cat jumps up and looks around like a panic, wants to find the noise.” -Swnsasy
Review:“SO I BOUGHT THIS KEURIG THIFT SHOPPING…So I already knew I was going to send it thru a vinegar cycle but wanted something else to deep clean it. Got these lil pods and the first picture is the first pod, second pic is the second pod and I didn’t get a pic of the 3rd cup cause it was so clear that I hurried and made my coffee lol. It tasted great with no greasy looking residue in my cup.” -Nani
Review:“Best money I’ve spent in a long time. Endless fun for all ages. Heck I even play with them and I’m 33 😂. My 7 year old loves them. When the sticky goes away you just wash them off and it comes back just as sticky as they were when you opened the package.” -Krissy
Review:“This worked in all three different airlines during my travel to Hawaii. American Airlines, Hawaiian Airlines, and Southwest Airlines. It’s very sturdy and holds well with a movable child sitting in front. I’ve also find it useful for the rental car to hold up my phone for GPS. It’s small and compact to fold into your carry on bag. Highly recommended!” -Riley

Review:“We went for a 2-hour lobster fishing boat trip and a 4-hour whale-watching boat trip. These worked surprisingly well for both my husband and me! Neither of us experienced sea nausea so we could enjoy the trips fully! And I have a reputation for ANY kind of motion sickness (car/sea/flight/etc)! Usually I’ll take a motion sickness pill but I’m pregnant now so I’m trying not to take meds these days. These little bands are amazing~~~” -Aileen
Review:“product works great to keep little fuzzies and dust out of the bottom of my bag. Easy to clean and use again. Only qualm is that it sometimes comes “unclasped” so the ball just rolls around sans the cage, but that’s not a big deal. Would buy again!” -Emily H.

Review:“Never thought I could get enjoyment from a kitchen device! This frother is strong and easy to use and comes with a handy stand. Usually after I froth my milk I’ll just quickly rinse it with water, give a push of the button for the frother to spin and dry and put back in it’s holder. It’s perfect! No dripping mess, clean up quickly and gives you the best frothy milk you can get!” -SavouringLife
