40 Marvelous Products On Amazon That Are Cute, Useful, And Under $8

RSVP Endurance Mini Whisks, $7 (2 Pack), Amazon

These miniature whisks are adorable and just the right size for making dressings, sauces, or fluffy scrambled eggs. Each set comes with two sizes: a 5-inch whisk and a 7-inch whisk. They're made from stainless steel, and one reviewer writes: "When I first separated one of the whisks from the packaging, I thought oops . . . maybe I should have searched for "small" whisk, not "mini." Then I took it for a spin. It turns out, these are the perfect size for whisking small amounts like miso-butter, an egg, or even homemade vinaigrette."

Riipoo Cable Clips, $7 (12 Pack), Amazon

Keep all your electronics cables organized with these colorful cable clips. With adhesive backing, they stick to your desk and have grooves for holding cables, cords, and wires. They help prevent tangles and — more importantly — make your desktop look a little less unruly. You can also use them as pen-holders, so you always have a writing utensil nearby.

Fox Run Pig Pot Clip, $5, Amazon

I would buy this pig spoon holder simply because it makes for a cute kitchen mascot, but it actually serves a practical purpose as well. The pig clips to the rim of your pot and has a slot for holding your spoon. It keeps your stovetop clean and works better than regular spoon rests since any dripping will only occur over the pot. The pig clip is made from heat-resistant silicone.

LEDING Phone Ring Holder, $6, Amazon

This cat-shaped phone holder slips around your finger like a ring, and frees up your hand for other things, like holding your keys or latte.

It also doubles as a kickstand, so you can FaceTime hands-free. It even comes with a hook so you can use it with any car mount.

ENEEKO 2-In-1 Mini Camping Lantern, $6, Amazon

This mini camping lantern can be recharged by USB, but it also works the other way around: it can be used as a power bank to charge your phone, tablet, or computer. The lantern has three lighting modes: low, high, and "SOS' flashing — for any unexpected emergencies. Use the hook to hang it on a branch to light up your campsite while you're setting up the tent.

You know those last drops of sauce in a jar? How it's so hard to reach them, so you end up just throwing the jar away even though you know there's more goodness in there?

SpaRoom Mini Essential Oil Diffuser, $8, Amazon

This small essential oil diffuser is small enough to stick on your desk at work. Plus, it's USB-rechargeable, so you can plug it right into your computer to power it up.

Happy Sales Microplane, $7, Amazon

Finely grating garlic and ginger is a tricky task because your fingers get so close to those sharp blades —so use this ingenious microplane instead.

It'll safely shred without the risk of scraped knuckles, and because it's made from stainless steel, the microplane is dishwasher-safe.

Murlien Massage Roller, $7, Amazon

With the amount of muscle tension this massage roller is able to release, you'd think it would be a lot more expensive.

It also helps with fatigue, and can help get rid of stress, too.

Is this makeup hair band my favorite thing of all time? Quite possibly. Slip the soft and stretchy band onto on your head to hold your hair out of the way while you're washing your face or putting on makeup in the morning.

DEEZOMO RFID Blocking Wallet, $8, Amazon

This RFID blocking wallet protects you from electronic pickpocketing.

This dachshund ice mold tray is almost as distinctive (and adorable) as dachshunds themselves. Each tray makes nine "dachshunds".

This survival multi-tool is about the size of a credit card, but it just might come in handy in case of apocalypse.

The 3-foot cord works as a tourniquet, or can be used to hang food out of reach of wild animals.

Prepworks Dip Clips, $8 (4 Pack), Amazon

There's a fatal flaw to dip-based hors d'oeuvres: all that dip spreads out all over the plate, making it hard to actually dip. And that spread-out dip ends up getting all over the other foods, too. Arm your guests with these dip clips instead. They clip to the side of any plate or bowl and make it easy to dip carrots and chips.

Scalp massages can even help stimulate hair growth. Here's what one reviewer writes: "This works really well for massaging your shampoo into your scalp. I like the shape of the little prongs; they feel nice when you (gently!) rub them on your head. The white part has a little handle on the back thats easy to slip your fingers around to get a better grip when you're scrubbing with slippery soapy hands."

First things first: these silicone scrubbers do a bang-up job of cleaning dishes. They're powerful on pots and pans, but they won't scratch anything up. They also dry quickly, which means they won't harbor bacteria like traditional sponges.

The containers can be opened with just one hand by squeezing the sides until the top pops off, and each set comes with three container for various needs.

Kokuyo Stapleless Stapler, $6, Amazon

Perhaps stapler isn't quite the correct term for this stapleless stapler. It's more of a paper fastener. It works by punching a series of small holes in your stack of papers. The punched out paper pieces then create a tab that secures the papers together. This staple-free stapler is super portable and fits in the palm of your hand, too — and it's cute.

All the tools nest together in one little plant and make for a cute and practical decoration for your kitchen windowsill.

NewKelly Wire Scrubber Holder, $3, Amazon

In the words of this Amazon reviewer: "This little plastic shark fin holder is a great product. It’s saved my fingertips from getting all torn up from holding the metal sponge while scrubbing my ceramic stovetop."
