As I write this, we're a few months removed from the world's largest spend-a-thon, AKA the holiday season. And boy, is my wallet hurting. But, no-spend Spring? Not when I have Amazon.

Perfection? Darn close.
I use a lot of my free time to go down the rabbit hole - the Amazon rabbit hole, if you will.

Grab your iced coffee and buckle up because I'm about to take you on a 50-product tour of the best things I've discovered on Amazon in the past 30 days.
