I Hate Spending Money. Here's What I'm Actually Buying On Prime Day

I hate spending money. This may seem strange, since I work on as shopping writer, but it makes sense to me: I like finding cost-effective products that will actually make a difference in my and readers’ lives, distinct from shopping just to shop.

Because I dread parting with my money (I have a savings account to build!), I plan to utilize Prime Day to snag items I’ve been wanting for a while, for less — and to stock up on items I regularly use, for cheaper.

My criteria? Items that I’ll actually get a lot of use out of, and which are actually a solid deal.

I must admit, I had a lot of fun hunting around. Here are the picks I’m looking at for Prime Day, below.
