Shopping online is easy, but dare I say that it can be too easy? With millions of choices right at my fingertips, I sometimes find myself having trouble making decisions. Normally, that wouldn’t be a problem — except now I’m having trouble buying things I actually need. That’s why I’ve made a deal with myself: If it’s a dank thing on Amazon that’s got a cult following, it’s worth the money. Period.

And I know what you're thinking: "How can you tell if something has a cult following?" For starters, check the reviews. If the product you're looking at is relatively unknown, but it has thousands of reviews from happy shoppers, you can probably consider it as something that has a cult following. As for whether or not it's "dank," just look at it. Do you think you'll get a good amount of use out of it? Is it stylish? Hip? Affordable? All of those contribute to how dank a product is — and luckily for you, I've gathered some of the dankest products out there for this list.

But I'm not going to just tell you about all the products I've picked — you have to keep scrolling to find out. So what are you waiting for? There’s a breakfast sandwich maker in here calling your name, and I just added it to my bag.
