Happy summer shopping everyone! My assistant, Melissa, and I compiled a list of what we plan to purchase or hunt for on Amazon Prime Day. You need to be a Prime member to get these deals, but in my humble opinion, it’s well worth it! I have one child moving into college this fall and another moving into her first apartment, so we have quite a few things in our cart as I type this.
Just to be straightforward, I receive a small and stingy commission from Amazon for these recs, but I would be forever grateful if you use the links I provide to purchase anything you’re interested in. I do not advertise on my website and only occasionally accept sponsored posts for things I truly love and use. This is a small way to help me “keep the lights on.” Let me know what you’re looking for in the comments or DM me on Instagram! You can also find my curated shopping lists in my Amazon Store.
Hurricane Preparedness
Since Texas seems to be getting hit with a multitude of weather events lately, I wanted to put together a list of items for all of my Southern followers. We were without power for a week and had to throw the majority of the food in our fridge and freezer, so I might also be in the hunt for a generator sometime soon.
Chargeable Light Bulbs (when we lost power in May, these saved me. I used them in my cooking class without power!)
Battery Operated Fan (when you lose power in Texas in July, it gets hot FAST)
Battery Operated Fan with Light
Outdoor Faucet Covers (believe it or not, we also have freezing temps in winter)
French Press (if you have a gas stove you can light it and boil water for pour-over or French Press coffee)
Pour Over Coffee and Stainless Steel Filter
Organizer for Important Papers
Travel
European Fast charger (I took this to Europe in June and it worked great)
Rolling Rack (to mind map and strategize your packing)
Apple Air Tags for luggage
Airplane outfit option 2
Airplane outfit option 3

College Dorm
Standing Fan (Texas heat means lots of fans!)
Small bathroom or makeup organizer

Laundry Bag / Hamper on Wheels
