Amazon has a seemingly endless supply of special items. After a lot of scrolling, I present you with some *extra* special items. Consider: Douglas fir tea, a retro edition of Uno, and Miffy earbuds. 

Promising review: "So cute, I love the art style and the interpretation book. I also liked that the book has spread ideas to try. The art has me ogling every time I come across a card I haven’t seen before. The box is great quality and helps keep the cards safe, along with being adorable." —Riley

Promising review: "I love the outcome! It was easy to assemble thanks to the step-by-step directions. I was in awe when I plugged it in and it actually worked! Beautiful design, beautiful sound." —baygirl

Note: Only order these when it's cold out or else they might melt on their way to you. 

Promising review: "I think the candy is very flavorful, and the little animals inside are really easy to peel out. They taste really good! This candy is especially great for younger elementary-aged kids. My 6-year-old brother loved all the animals. You have to open up each cube to figure out what animal you got, which is a fun twist." —Caitlin

Price: $2.86+ (available in two flavors and also multipacks)

Promising review: "I ordered this scarf in two colors: coffee and green. I truly love both! I had considered getting a similar scarf from a trendy brand for $30, but I found this one and decided to give it a try! The quality is the same. I love how soft the knit is on my skin; it doesn't feel scratchy or overly hot like cheap knit usually feels. The size of it is perfect for draping over my shoulders, especially with a little scarf ring to tie it in front. I'm not quite sure how else I'll style it yet. Overall, I think these scarves are well worth the money! I highly recommend the brown one, very versatile!" —Ym

Price: $15+ (available in four flavors).

They can also download user-made games and play with other Thumby owners.

Promising review: "I recently got my hands on the TinyCircuits Thumby, and it's been an absolute delight. Despite its minuscule size, the build quality is impressive. It feels sturdy enough to hang on a keychain without worries about damage. While the controls can be a bit challenging for those with larger hands, it's a minor trade-off for its compactness. The screen quality is surprisingly good for such a tiny gadget. Text is clear and readable, and the display responds well during gameplay. The Thumby is a fantastic choice." —Richard

Promising review: "Love making coffee in these cups in the morning! Gives it a different type of coffee look." —PaFoua

Price: $15.99 for two (clip the coupon on the product page to get it for $15.19).

Promising review: "This is the classic Uno I grew up playing with people of all ages, including my grandparents. I'm 53 now, and I can say without question that there's no other version of this game I would ever use. You don't have to interpret symbols or wonder if you are supposed to skip or reverse. It flat-out says it right on the card. I'm an old soul, I admit. I want clear and concise." —KH

Promising review: "This chrome mushroom lamp is such a stylish addition to my space! I was looking for something that felt retro but still modern, and this hits the mark perfectly. It gives off total mid-century modern vibes and instantly elevates the aesthetic of my office. I’ve already gotten compliments on it, and I love how it ties the room together. If you're into modern or retro decor, this is a must-have piece!" —someone

Note: Some people miss a crucial step when using this timer. They need to turn the dial all the way to 55 minutes and then turn it back to their desired time or else the ring won't be loud enough. 

Promising review: "Very nicely made timer; all metal construction. High quality for a reasonable price. Much better than the cheap plastic timers one usually finds in the kitchen supply aisle at the grocery store. Really like that it's made in Germany." —Frank M.

Price: $20.53+ (available in 13 colors).

It comes with a white cord, but it would be kinda cute to paint it green so it looks like a vine. 

Promising review: "Obsessed with this lace top!! I have it in brown and am ordering in more colors. Perfect to wear on its own with a bralette/tank or can be layered so many ways! Such great quality and super affordable! Runs true to size! Love the sleeves and neckline of this one!" —Becca

Price: $9.49 (clip the coupon on the product page to get it for $8.54; available in sizes XS–XL and 11 colors; see a similar plus-size version here)

Promising review: "Love how this makes my skin feel. I have been using it for three weeks and can tell a difference in my face. But the real surprise came from the difference I saw on the top of my hands. I usually take the product and mix it on the top of my hand, then apply it to my face. Well, my 60-year-old hands are plumper and look more refreshed. So if it’s doing that to my hand, then it’s great for my face." —Dally

Price: $19.90 (also available in four other styles).

Promising review: "Probably the cutest candle I’ve ever seen. Smells great and as described, and the container is so cute and reusable. 10/10." —Stephanie C.

Price: $31.95+ (available in seven scents)

Promising review: "This thing is so soft and so pretty, and the color is so rich! I thought I'd be throwing it off the bed like, well, a throw pillow (I just got why they're called that), but I end up essentially snuggling it like a stuffed animal because it's so comfortable. It adds the right amount of '60s/'70s campy hotel kitsch to my room." —Ashley Diamond

Price: $16.99+ (available in two sizes and nine colors)

Promising review: "Wow! I love this sweater. It's buttery soft, and the velvet bows add a touch of class and elegance. This is a great holiday sweater. What I really like are the buttons underneath the bows, so you don't need to wear anything underneath. I may have to buy it in black too. 😀" —steff

Price: $26.52+ (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and three colors)

Promising review: "I bought this bowl as an elevated dog food bowl and found it perfect for my dog to reach and eat out of it. The quality is actually much nicer than I expected, with a heavy weight to it and nice ceramic feel. The pretty orange color is also nice." —Amazon Customer

Price: $26.99+ (available in three fruits).

Promising review: "I am so impressed with this suncatcher. I couldn't believe that it came so beautifully packaged, and the suncatcher is amazing. I loved it so much, I sent one to a friend for her birthday. She loved it. If you're looking for a nice gift, consider this. Your recipient will love it." —Patricia

The Wine Savant is a New York-based small business established in 2017 that specializes in unique, quality drinkware and accessories. 

Promising review: "Love these! Wasn’t ready to splurge on Estelle stemmed glasses so I got these instead. I’ve run them through the dishwasher once so far, and they held up fine. Glass is thin near the top, which I love in a wineglass. I would recommend!" —Tricia

Price: $49.95 for six (also available in solid color sets).

Coops is woman-owned and all of their sauces are made in small batches.

Promising review: "I have been buying Coop’s for a couple of years now and I have never encountered a hot fudge I love more. It’s rich, creamy - amazing on ice cream or just a spoonful to end the day! In my experience, both children and adults love it." —Meghan E. Smith

Price: $13.89+ (available in five flavors and multipacks)

Promising review: "I bought these pants for a festival, and they are very comfortable. I think they can be worn for most casual occasions. They are also long enough, breathable, and made of high-quality windbreaker-like fabric. They do make that swishing sound, but it doesn't bother me. I also LOVE the pockets because they came in handy walking around at the festival. If you don't mind that and want comfort pants, then I highly recommend." —Michaella

Price: $30.99+ (available in sizes XL–5XL and five colors)

Promising review (in berry scent): "This is a great lip mask! I put it on at night, and my lips stay hydrated and wake up feeling so soft, not dry. This is worth the price you pay, as it may be small, but it has lasted me for months, and I'm not even halfway through it. It only takes a little bit to put on your lips every night to keep them moisturized. Works great, worth the price, go and buy!" —C Hodge

Size up if you want a real PJ experience. 

Promising reviews: "This has become one of my FAVORITE Amazon pieces! It’s so comfortable and lightweight. The sweater material is light enough to wear on a cooler summer day and will transition nicely into fall. It has a heaviness to it, though, that makes it fall nicely. I will wear the sweater with jeans through the winter!" —suitelikewillowrock

"This is the perfect set for a beach trip! I loved throwing this over my swimsuit for the beach. It's great quality for the price!" —Caitlin

Price: $42.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and 21 colors)

Promising review: "I bought the Hally gem pen for my daughter’s special event, and it was a total hit! ✨ The gems were super easy to apply, stayed in place all day, and added the perfect sparkle to her hairstyle. Removing them was just as simple — no damage, no tangles. We got so many compliments on her festive look, and she felt like a little star." —Alina

Price: $33.99+ (available in two color sets and refill packs)

Other fun examples: shrimp-shaped eye patches, a bat-shaped nose mask, and Benny the Bigfoot-adorned booties. 

Promising review: "These are so adorable!!! My son loves a face mask and we love Squishmallows, so I had to get these for him! He was SO EXCITED!" —Chef Ryder’s Momma

Price: $10.15+ (available in seven pack types)
