10 (Wednesday) Favorites: It's Prime Day!

 


Hello and Happy Hump Day from Florida! Steve has a business trip this week, so I decided to tag along and call it a "writer's retreat". So this is where I've been sitting and trying to come up with words since yesterday. That's the Tampa Bay right out there and a beautiful sunrise this morning. 

Yesterday, I wrote so many sentences about emotions and grief and parenting and Jesus, so I thought I'd come in today with some unimportant words and some retail therapy to help me take a break from feeling my feelings. Just stuff them all down for a bit. Cool?

If you've been under a rock and haven't heard, it's Amazon Prime Day time. There are 7 million and one people telling you their favorite picks, so why not add number 7 million and two? Let's go.

 This Cool Life luggage set that I got for Christmas last year makes me so happy. It comes in lots of colors and the 4 piece set is only $169.00 today. This is where I would like to point out to you that Steve pleaded with me to only bring a carry-on on this four day trip, so I sacrificed all the shoes that I usually bring on a trip and stuffed everything into one bag. I can't remember the last time I accomplished a feat so daunting. I'll accept your congratulations. Thanks.


2.



My favorite Glamorous Wash Diva detergent that is stupid-expensive for a detergent, but makes your pjs and sheets and towels smell like heaven's laundry room is 30% off today. GO!

Ok, admittedly I've never used Grande Lash Serum. I used one for awhile that was really great but costs five times as much as this one. YIKES. Then I used another cheaper one for awhile and recently there was a recall on it. DOUBLE YIKES. I've heard good things about Grande Lash and it's 30% off today, so I'm going for it.

My Amazon history tells me I've purchased the Lumene CC Cream five times. I'm not stopping now. I love this stuff. It's not too heavy and still provides great coverage. It's not all that expensive to begin with, but it's 23% off today, so I'm stocking up.

5.



Y'all. I'll never stop talking about this BAGSMART toiletry bag. I don't even think there's a special deal on it, but I'm still listing it because I was just hanging it up in my hotel bathroom and it's so great. So many of my friends have mentioned they purchased it and love it. It holds everything you can imagine to take on trips with you and you know your girl has A LOT of products. I have the medium and it comes in a bunch of colors.

I bought this dress in green in the spring and I love it. It's on sale and comes in every color you can imagine. I think it would be so cute for a college football game in your team's color this fall with sneakers or cowboy boots. 

7.

I must have seen this striped color block sweatshirt a bazillion times over the past six months and I never bought it. I have iron will, as you know. But now it's 27% off and I might grab it. So many cute colors and I've seen it in real life. It's good.

Perhaps the Olympics can save us all from our anxiety about our flawed, but beautiful, amazing country. Let's all buy ourselves a giant USA sweatshirt that we can wear while we eat Ben & Jerry's on the couch and imagine that our cheers and helpful critiques will be heard by world class athletes across the globe, shall we?

Drew stole my fan that I bought recently because he's working at a baseball camp this summer in a facility with no air conditioning. I'm fairly certain I will never see that fan again, so this one is only $13.00ish today. It's pink so maybe I'll be able to keep this one.

I keep seeing these walking pads that apparently allow you to move your body while you're working on your laptop. I understand the concept and I get why it's important, but is this really something people are able to do? Since I've been writing so much this summer working on my book or devotional or collection of essays or whatever the heck it is, this seems like a great idea to allow me to work and not be stuck in my chair for hours at a time. I'm just not sure I'm coordinated enough for it. This is a massive deal though - 92% off - and it might be worth a shot. Please advise. Does anyone have one of these?

That's what I got for today! Happy Shopping, friends!!  See you on Friday if my fingers are still working enough to type.
