GTKU- Recommendations

What is one product you would recommend to your fellow WPs? Could be your favorite makeup, food, toilet paper, whatever.

One product...

Online Grocery Ordering or Delivering. We would not make it without that.

Wait...that's a service. 

Bare Minerals is my favorite make up but I learned about that on here. 

Yeti Travel Coffee Mugs.

Siggi’s triple cream yogurt (9% fat). The lemon is the best. It’s thick and amazing and has a lot less sugar than most yogurt. Siggi’s is carried by a lot of stores, but I’ve only found their triple cream yogurt at Whole Foods.

Erin Baker's breakfast cookies. I eat one almost every morning for breakfast. Double chocolate is my favorite. The granola is really good too.

I love Jackrabbit socks for running. They aren’t crazy expensive, are super comfortable with a really nice compression.

I put up a combo pin board/chalkboard/key rack from Target just inside the door from the garage and it has been amazing. Important papers and schedule info and keys are all in one place now.

Because it's baseball season...

I love my foldable canvas cargo wagon. I got it on Amazon for around $35 a year ago or so (after seeing all the other smart baseball moms with one). I love it. It fits a large bag of snacks, our medium size cooler, my camera bag, DD's bag of things to keep her occupied, and our camp chairs.

Crockpot liners! I love them, they make life easy, and I don't have to scrub out the crock pot 2 or 3 nights a week.

A jade roller set for your face. I got one in a box I’d ordered of sustainable, good for the earth products, and thought it was stupid. I was so wrong. You use it to make your jawline look more toned and your whole face look more glowing and less puffy. When I go a couple of days without using it, I can see all the fluid moving under my skin when I use it.

Libby - it's an app that allows you to borrow audio/e-books from your local library. I've been reading a lot more because of it.

traveltheworld, my book club friend just have me a tip around library e-reader books - she said she puts her e-reader in airplane mode until she’s done with a book so they can’t take it back . She said that it doesn’t prevent anyone else from checking it out because it still shows as having expired/been returned on the original day. I don’t have an e-reader but thought it was an interesting idea.

Oh that's awesome! Will definitely use that trick.

covergirl82, do you have a link to the wagon? I'm sick of carrying 4 chairs, snack bag, blankets, toys, etc in my arms.

mellym, this is similar:  www.amazon.com/FIXKIT-Collapsible-Outdoor-Shopping-All-Terrain/dp/B07G5CZ7NL/ref=sr_1_22?crid=N0Y1VNGJN3QG&keywords=foldable+cargo+wagon&qid=1559223629&s=gateway&sprefix=foldable+cargo+%2Caps%2C276&sr=8-22

There are also nicer ones around $100 that have thicker wheels and a tray.  I think someone has told me before that Costco also carries these kinds of wagons, but I haven't checked the store or their website to confirm.

If you are ever in a position to renovate your bathroom or kitchen, I recommend getting heated tile floors. They are game-changers.

[sdlaura]

freezorburn, the house we rented in Santa Barbara last weekend had them in the bathroom, and they were amazing!

[polecat8]

And if you can't afford the heated tile floors, a bathroom exhaust fan with a heater option works nicely too!

[campermom]

mommyatty I had never heard of a jade roller and I got one after seeing this. The before/after are comical, as if a grandma turned into a young woman!

I’m looking forward to it though!

Lancôme Skin Feels Good now makes my list. It’s a tinted moisturizer/light foundation and it’s exactly what I have wanted. The lady at Ulta steered me away from BB and CC because I wanted buildable coverage if a first layer didn’t hide the red spots. They said BB and CC were not as likely as this to help and I think they are right - the BBs and CCs left me too ... dewy. I’m using this in the morning and it looks the same in the evening. Unreal!
