Having shopped and worked on multiple Amazon Prime Day deal events, I’m often asked what to buy, or more specifically, what I’m buying – so here’s the most random list of goodies that I think you might want to look at.
From cleaning and household products for the home I share with my housemates, to books and snacks for my dad, beauty items I need a top-up of, this is quite the eclectic mix.
This March, Amazon has treated us to a longer Spring Deal days event, and boy, have there been some bargains to snap up.
Personally, I’m buying what most would call ‘boring things’, but quite frankly, they are necessary for sure.
From Garnier’s cult cleaners to undereye creams that hide my incredibly dark circles, loo roll, hydration sachets, snacks for work at Metro’s HQ, tweezers and, yup, Scampi Fries for the garage at my parent’s house – Amazon literally has everything I ever need.
So please, take a look inside my mind and wonderfully weird shopping habits – plus the items I’ve put into my basket, and I’m eagerly awaiting to be delivered.
I should also mention that you have until 11:59pm on April 31st to make the most of these bargain buys – so what are you waiting for?
