Once My Fellow Weirdos Find About About These 35 Products, I Fear They Will All Sell Out
This season it’s all about Shrek’s new “mud pie” lip gloss and this calming meditation sloth.
1. Dawn Pumpkin Spice Powerwash Spray — yes, the holy grail of all dish cleaners comes in AUTUMNAL form for a limited time each year, and it is so beloved that it tends to go fast! Reviewers love how it smells like warmth and fall without being too overpowering, but it still has all the grit and cleaning power of the original spray.
Amazon
Promising review: “Dawn has done it again with this spectacular product to do your dishes with a scent of fall. I love it! Highly recommend it for all fall lovers. It makes doing dishes not feel like a chore.” —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $6.24 (also available in an apple scent!).
2. A Froot Loops–inspired rollerball scent you will be CURIOUSLY in love with — as will everyone who gets a sweet, nostalgic whiff of you. A ton of reviewers mention that this sweet, lovely blend of tart lemon, warm toasted wheat, and slight floral notes has gotten them a LOT of compliments!
Promising review: “I was craving a Froot Loop scent since I got a wax melt that had similar notes. This. Oil. Is. It. I have close to a hundred sprays and oils that I have curated, and this outperforms most of the ones I have. So many compliments were given today when I wore this, and people were tickled when I told them it was, IN FACT, a Froot Loop scent. I really did not have high expectations for the longevity and projection, but really, truly, this is a beast. I will buy this again and again!” —Audrey
Get it from Amazon for $12.99.
3. A “This Is Fine” Dog mini build set as the best kind of desk buddy on days when you and your coworkers are at a full 🫠.
4. A “Meowdy” door mat so everyone knows when they walk through your door that they’re in for a rootin’ tootin’ good time.
Promising review: “I’m really happy with this rug! The coconut fiber is the best textile I’ve ever felt for an outdoor doormat for scrubbing off dirty or snowy shoes, and it feels very sturdy. I suspect this lil’ feller and us are gonna be friends for a long time, and now we have the best doormat of the building!” —bluejay80
Get it from Amazon for $25.99.
5. A NeeDoh SplootSplat, another release from the *elite* Needoh sensory fidget toy line for anyone who wants to add more calm and focus to their day. This goo-filled, delightfully bendy fidget has a satisfying squish with tentacles you can push and pull before going back to its original shape. Reviewers also love that it doesn’t have the kind of stickiness that picks up debris and makes it hard to clean.
Schylling is a small business that specializes in modern and retro toys, games, and sets.
Promising review: “It feels like a real hand if you interlock your fingers with its tentacles. You can push a tentacle inside of itself for some sensory as well. I’m an avid Needoh collector and enthusiast, and I can confidently say it’s competing in the top two spot.” —Matthew
Get it from Amazon for $7.38 (colors will vary).
6. An Oscar the Dog Dish Brush who is such a genuine Good Boy that reviewers swear by him for scrubbing off their toughest stains, and love love *love* how easily he cleans up in the dishwasher.
Promising review: “I clean my dog’s food bowls nightly and this little brush is perfect. The design lets everyone know this is used on the dog bowls so they don’t accidentally use it, and it works great for scrubbing out their bowls. I love little kitchen gadgets like this and I would definitely buy it again. I wish I could get them in different dog breeds just for fun.” —Ginny B
Get it from Amazon for $16.95.
7. A mini Bob Ross paint-by-numbers kit for anyone on their “happy accidents” beat — this itty bitty set comes with everything you need to create three tiny masterpieces of your very own.
The kit comes with three different numbered canvas designs, seven paint pots, a mini brush, and an easel.
Promising review: “I have to admit I was skeptical because of the price and size. However, I got these for my husband for his birthday (he loves Bob Ross) and what a find!! We had so much fun mixing colors and painting. Would definitely recommend. The fact that they are small makes them even more special. I wish there were more to paint!” —slb m
Psst — you can snag a Bob Ross color-by-number coloring book on Amazon, too!
Get it from Amazon for $6.51.
8. Colourpop’s Shrek Ultra Glossy Lip so you can turn heads all over your local swamp with just how decadently hydrated and glossy your lips are. Bonus: the flavors are mud pie, pina colada, waffle, and blueberry muffin!
9. A blackhead remover anxiety relief toy perfect for anyone who likes to relax in the most bizarrely gross yet satisfying way possible. Reviewers mention this lil’ dude helps give them relief from other less healthy fidget habits, like pulling and picking.
Promising review: “I have trichotillomania and really love these little guys. They help refocus my habit, and the pull is very satisfying and realistic. I’ve had to repurchase already, and I’ll reorder more in the future. Can’t recommend these enough, as I’ve been searching for this type of tool for a long time.” —Danika Hill
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in nine styles).
10. A freestanding light-up ghost dog complete with a handy remote control, so even if the whole block is going full spook, there will always be one Very Good Boy at the door to protect the kiddos from monsters!
Promising review: “These are so cute! Not cheap quality, easy to assemble, and a steal for the price! The remote for the lights controls both, so I only need to have one out. The tripod stand is adjustable so they can be smaller in height. I got two because I have two dogs. You cannot top the cuteness factor!! Totally worth it!!” —Melissa Kramer
Get it from Amazon for $18.99 (also available as a regular non-dog ghost, but whatever).
11. Murdle, Volume 1, a true essential for anyone who relaxes to true crime podcasts or Only Murders in the Building. The book is full of 100 mystery-themed logic puzzles with four different levels of difficulty that they can do solo or with pals, and in order or out of order (although if they do it in order, they get the full scoop on Deductive Logico and Inspector Irratino, whose hilarious misadventures guide you through the book).
Check out a TikTok of Murdle in action.
The best part?? Once you finish “Murdling,” you can use your sleuthing skills on Volume 2, Volume 3, and a whole BUNCH of other themed Murdle books — PLUS a Murdle board game!!
Promising review: “The puzzles are a lot of fun, but the characters, story lines, and other details take the Murdle experience to another level. I have no idea how the author came up with all of this creativity! You can Murdle solo or with friends. I look forward to future volumes, but this one will keep me busy for a while!” —Liz Gately
Get it from Amazon for $12.84.
12. A mini inflatable tube guy for your desk to cheer you on (or remind you to take a lil’ dance break whenever you overwork yourself).
The inflatable tube guy requires a 9V battery, which is not included.
Promising review: “OMG! I love this guy! These things, large and small, will ALWAYS make me laugh. My husband bought the desk version for me, and I can always count on it to make me laugh. My co-workers love it, too. People just stop by to turn him on for a quick pick-me-up. I would recommend getting the AC plug since batteries can run down fast. I think we should create a community of fellow air-dancer-havers and post clips of our little guys dancing to our favorite songs. Anyone in?” —Mark
Get it from Amazon for $11.66.
13. Liquid Death’s Cereal Criminal Sparkling Water, which is basically Fruity Pebbles in bubbly drink form — incredibly bizarre, but WILDLY beloved. Reviewers note that, unlike other sparkling water varieties, this legitimately TASTES like the flavor, and leaves a delicious aftertaste in its wake. (Psst — some reviewers even love it as a mixer with their favorite liqueurs!)
Promising review: “This is the absolute best-tasting flavored sparkling water on the planet. When you pop the can open, the smell of Fruity Pebbles brings back so many great memories. But the smell isn’t the best part — it’s the taste. It actually tastes like Fruity Pebbles, but not in an overpowering way. It leaves a sort of slight Graham cracker in milk aftertaste.” —Amazon Customer
Get a pack of 12 from Amazon for $14.36 (also available in seven other flavors and a variety pack).
14. A set of book-shaped sponges, aka what happens when Cinderella and Belle collaborate on your birthday gift.
Promising review: “These are super cute and durable! Oh — and they work! I just rotate them out as I throw the dirtiest one in the washing machine and use the next one. They have a softer side and a scrubby side and stay attractive as well as useful. A great addition to my kitchen!” —K. Schiller
Get a set of three from Amazon for $9.99.
15. A guided visual sloth “breathing partner” you can use for meditation and calm to shift your mindset. This is designed to guide you through either the popular 4/7/8 or 5/5 “calming breaths” to help reduce stress and anxiety, using colors that fade in and out softly as cues. Bonus: it’s kid-friendly!
Amazon
Mindsight is a small business that specializes in calming personal care and decor products.
Promising review: “I’m a yoga teacher and I started using the sloth light in my classes to help guide breath work. My students love it and find it very helpful as a visual aid, so I don’t need to do all the counting for them. Love this product!” —Robin
Get it from Amazon for $23.95+ (available in six styles).
16. The Book of Weird and Unusual Trivia full of 704 pages (!!!) of bizarre facts, strange figures, and uncanny tidbits to make your brain go 🤯. This book contains trivia about everything from how Uranus used to be known as George to absurd stories of criminals throughout history to common misconceptions about things we do and see every day.
Amazon
Promising review: “A fun read while eating breakfast or chilling at the beach! My husband loves the fun facts in this book! I purchased another one for my mother-in-law’s birthday gift and she loves it! A great book for teens as well!” —Ohana Maui
Get it from Amazon for $10.51.

Another psst — you can pick up a cult-fave colored pencil set on Amazon!
Promising review: “This book is a must-have for horror lovers. So many adorable renditions of classic and newer horror movies that are a blast to color. I like the simple style because it allows me to add my own flair and techniques like a lot of the popular ‘cozy’ coloring books nowadays. I so hope this artist does a second version because I plan to finish every single picture in this book!” —AyemmeJay
Get it from Amazon for $10.84.
18. A Warm Buttered Bread candle for anyone whose dream life begins and ends with sticking their head face-first into a warm loaf of bread. This is also a handy way to trick your friends into thinking you can bake!
Promising review: “This is my absolute favorite candle. It truly smells like bread baking! Village Candle has the strongest, long-lasting scent of any candle I have tried over the past several years. I used to love Yankee, but the scents were not as strong as they used to be, so I am so happy I found the Village Candle.” —elidobie
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
19. A “Gracula” garlic crusher, because you know what? If a 108-year-old vampire lurking moodily in the trees in the Pacific Northwest isn’t going to fall in love with you and grant you immortality, one might as well make your life in the kitchen a little easier.
Promising review: “I love this little guy. I found him on a BuzzFeed list and had to have it as soon as I saw it! I’ve minced as many as five cloves in it in seconds. It’s a little tricky getting all of the garlic out once minced (I use a silicone basting brush to get most of it, but I always use more than the recipe calls for anyway, so it’s not a deal breaker). Cleanup is a breeze because he goes right in the dishwasher!” —Barbie
Get it from Amazon for $16.95.

23. A Godzilla microwave cleaner you can fill with water and vinegar and stick in the microwave. After five minutes, the gunk will be so loose that you can DESTROYYYYYY it all the way this big dude came after Manhattan.
Promising review: “Worked fantastically. My wife had doubts about how egregiously dirty and caked-on the gunk in our 15-year-old microwave was (she thought we’d need serious chemicals!), but with only one pass of using this, it got 80% of all the gunk built up. A second pass, a few days later, got most of the rest!” —Some Hyena
Get it from Amazon for $21.95.
24. A magnetic goose key holder for anyone who has been a silly goose about losing their keys one too many times. This lil’ guy will keep them safe for you and give all your guests a giggle when they behold him diligently guarding your keys in the doorway.
Promising review: “I have this duck placed in my office on my desk because I always misplace my keys. It’s adorable and extremely practical! Also, everyone who visits my office has to comment on how cute it looks. The magnet is quite strong! My keys are heavy as I carry many keys with me, and they always hold them strongly! I definitely recommend this.” —EgyMom
Get it from Amazon for $23.55+ (available in three styles).

Emma Lord/BuzzFeed

This vase is so quirky and ADORABLE — every time I see it in my living room, it makes my heart happy. I am on a mission to make my living room space as un-boring as possible, and this may be a small piece, but it’s got a BIG personality. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun piece of decor!
Get it from Amazon for $28.95.
27. A set of lil’ cat butt coasters so all your beverages can come with a side of 😳🐱😳🐱😳.
Promising review: “These kitty coasters are the perfect blend of cute and practical! The craftsmanship is excellent, with intricate details that bring the cat design to life. They’re thick enough to protect my furniture from hot or cold drinks without being bulky. Plus, they add such a fun and cozy touch to my home decor! I’ve received so many compliments on them from guests — they’re definitely a conversation starter. Bonus: They make a fantastic gift for any cat lover. Highly recommend!” —Renae
Get a set of three from Amazon for $9.99.
28. A dimmable sad duck night-light, because sometimes you just have to look at this emotionally deflated creature on your desk and be like, “Welp. At least I’m doing better than that little dude.”
Amazon
Promising review: “I ordered this lamp because of its appearance. I didn’t NEED a depressed duck lamp … but it has totally filled a void in my life I didn’t know existed. Everyone who sees it pokes it. The lamp is actually very functional. It’s got a really nice set of brightness options and the glow is yellowish, which is much nicer than white in a dim/dark room. One thing that isn’t mentioned in the description is that its legs are utterly floppy. It’s terrific.” —Literated
Get it from Amazon for $16.99.
29. Vlasic’s Pickle Balls, a flavored puff with a cult following so feral that the last place I’d want to be is in between one of these bags and a fan. If you’re a pickle fan, this will be a low-risk, high-reward buy that might just reach your Snack Pantheon, too.
Promising review: “These are so good, I have tried nearly everything pickle there is. Including the pickle slush from Sonic. This is my favorite pickle-flavored item. It is actually pickle tasting, and the texture is amazing. The thing about pickle-flavored things I have the biggest problem with is the salt levels. The salt is so overwhelming usually that it almost isn’t pickle flavor, or it’s just dill flavor, and I personally hate dill, but love dill pickles!” —Brenna H.
Get it from Amazon for $2.19.
30. A set of cowboy straw toppers to add some much-needed “yeehaw!” into your hydration regimen, and keep your straws safe from germs out here in the wild, bacterial west.
31. A set of delightfully chaotic but durable magnetic pigeon bag clips for anyone who gets ~peckish~ for chips and cereal and wants a fun way to seal the bag.
Amazon
Promising review: “Super cute and great quality. Holding up well so far.” —Amazon Customer
Get a pack of four from Amazon for $12.12 (available in two other styles).
32. A light-up solar frog figurine for your garden or porch, so when you come home from that “just one drink” dinner past midnight, this croaky lil’ fella can lovingly judge you for it.
Promising review: “I love this! It’s well-painted, and the solar light works great. It is the cutest thing on my patio table.” —solowithpits
Get it from Amazon for $16.77.
33. A camera lens–shaped thermos that is both aesthetically pleasing *and* delightfully practical — this 12-ounce insulated mug not only will keep coffee hot, but will keep iced drinks and smoothies cold on the go. Why say “cheese” when you can say “caffeine?”
Promising review: “I saw this while browsing, and at first, I thought it was a real lens (until I saw the price). I clicked and had to laugh because it incorporated my husband’s two loves — coffee and photography! I got it for him as part of his Christmas gifts, and he loves it. The designer did an excellent job with this. It looks real at first glance, and the raised areas make it very easy to hold. We laughed when he opened it, and it has become one of his favorite mugs.” —Susan
Get it from Amazon for $13.41.
34. A set of emotional support pickles you can keep on hand and carefully give out to friends, family, or coworkers who are … in a pickle, for lack of a better word. This will remind them that there is always a briney light in the darkness, so they can dill with whatever comes their way!
Promising review: “Very satisfied!! The plushies are so cute and fit very nicely in the little basket. It even comes with a card with each of the plushy’s names and personalities!!” —Adelyn Dvorak
Get a set of six pickles for $16.99 (available in 11 other styles of emotional support snacks and figures).
