8 products SO good, I am willing to advertise for free

1. Trader Joe's cilantro jalapeno hummus. Take one bite and you'll understand why I drive 20 minutes to Trader Joe's just to buy this product. I get sick of hummus and go through phases, but this flavor/brand is a constant that I have yet to get sick of.

2. This runner's flip belt. Not cheap, but well worth the price, as it has saved my runs/active things. I love to be able to listen to music and I'd much rather have something around my hips, nice and snug, then sliding down my barely-there-bisep. I love to record my runs on my running app to track my progress! Also, these are (obviously) not my abs, but maybe we can pretend like they are? :/



3. Harper's homemade bread. As much as I'd like to say that I hand-make bread every week like my  mother does, I don't. It's not practical for a single working woman. And plus, why would I make bread when I can buy this bread, which has NO preservatives, and whose ingredients are all things I can pronounce? It tastes delicious and is also very cheap.

4. Ninja blender. This thing is so convenient, and makes healthy eating quick, easy. You just put all of the materials in one of those bottles, put the blade on it, turn it upside down, and push. Then you take it off and replace the blade with a top and you have a healthy breakfast to go. It is so easy, and perfect for someone who only feeds one person.

5. Lunchbox. What's that, you say? Lunchboxes are for kids? FALSE. I may not have a Superman one like the below, but having a lunchbox full of healthy food I can eat during the day has saved me time & money & health. It makes healthy eating accessible & so I save money by not buying unhealthy junk that is convenient. This is a lifesaver for a working person.


6. Fire-roasted Kroger canned salsa. Canned salsa..gross, you say? That's what I thought, until I was introduced to this cheap, wonderful beauty by a friend. It's cheap, and it's amazing salsa I could eat by the spoonfulls. Yes. I do, actually. Then my sister Angela showed me that it's even better if you just add lime and cilantro right out of the can. I LOVE salsa but don't always have the time to chop up tomatoes (and I hate store-bought tomatoes) so this is a quick way to appease my salsa-loving self



7. Venmo App. This is free, which is even more reason that everyone should have it. It's an app on smart phones you can use to pay your friends. It doesn't have any extra fees, and is SO convenient. If you're like me, and you always forget to pay rent on time because you're out of town on the first of the month always, this app is for you because you can pay remotely.

8. WellsFargo app. This is also a free app on which you can do MOBILE DESPOSITS. Do you realize what this means? It means you will never have to go to the bank to deposit a check again. Maybe you have all already realized this, ten years ago, but it's revolutionized my life. I LOVE TECHNOLOGY!
