Don't wait for the holiday chaos to hit. The best shopping trick this season isn't about gifts -- it's about stocking up on essentials now. Beat the rush, avoid packed stores and snag better prices while you still can. This will save you time, stress and money. Get it done today and make your winter easier.
There's been some crazy weather this year, so get a high-capacity power bank before you really need it. I have a couple at home. This Marbero portable power station ($76, 30% off) charges multiple phones and laptops at once and has built-in flashlights.
Is yours putting off that weird burning smell? Grab a new one before you start shivering. A solid option is this Dreo space heater ($79, 11% off) with a bunch of heating modes to choose from, plus overheating and tip-over protection.
They sure beat burying yourself under four layers and rubbing your feet together for warmth. The Bedsure heated blanket ($39, 33% off) comes in lots of pretty colors and has six heat settings and an auto-shutoff mode for sleeping.
It's hard to explain to an 8-year-old Santa's workshop is low on inventory, so get to shopping before these sell out. This 3D-printing pen ($39) is super popular this season -- think "Harold and the Purple Crayon" brought to life.
💝 "Kim, what about my 12-year-old nephew?" Don't worry, I'll share lists for everyone you're shopping for soon!
'Tis the season for sniffles and coughs. Making sure you've got lots of supplies -- like Vicks NyQuil Severe ($19 for a twin pack) -- means you can stay cozy in your sick dungeon without having to venture out into the world.
🥊 Ah, doesn't it feel good to be all stocked up? Speaking of, a Costco worker asked me, "Wanna box for your groceries?" I said, "No, I'll pay for them." Everyone's so violent these days.
