Whenever I have some extra money lying around, I’m always looking for the weirdest gadgets and products that make life better. Which usually means any surplus income goes straight to genius products on Amazon wish lists. Why buy clothes or go out to dinner when you can have a dog bed that looks a shark, a notepad you're supposed to microwave, or a shiatsu massager you can strap to your car seat? These brilliantly odd items are just what I never knew I needed.

Even though I write about products almost every day, Amazon's most wished for page constantly refreshes with new and more innovative stuff. Other buyers are on it like nobody's business, and when they hit "Add To List," Amazon tallies it up. Soon enough, you've got yourself a catalog of exactly what's trending and what people can't wait to get their hands on.

Oftentimes, you'll find stuff that's selling well for a reason, but won't necessarily come up as a top result if you're using the search bar. So no matter what you're looking to buy, do yourself a favor and check out these awesome items people are adding to their wish lists. You never know when you might need a portable water filter or a bracelet that keeps away mosquitoes.
