Welcome to 2023 and a new year of the Prime Purchases link up! I'm so thankful that there is continued interest in this monthly spot on the internet. Many of you say it is your favorite blog browsing event of each month...thank you!
January is always a big month for Prime Purchases, because many of you post about all the holiday gifts you gave and received. Maybe you couldn't show them in the December post because the recipients were blog readers! Let's get started...as always, link up below and be sure to visit some other bloggers.
I posted about this in December and promised to report back about the quality. I love this curling iron! Because of the long barrel, the heat reaches all of my hair and the curl stays longer.
I ordered another set of these bags and plan to give G and J 2 bags each. Somehow, packing takes up more space coming home than moving in to the dorm so these will give them some overflow space. By the way, these are so much better than the original Ikea bags I bought for Grace. They are much sturdier, and you can carry them as a backpack or bag.
All things Auburn for Jack. These were in the "advent calendar" I made for him.
This was one of Jack's favorite gifts. They are wireless transmitters for an electric guitar so you don't have to be plugged into the amp. He can walk around the house and play his guitar.
I bought this Apple watch band for Michael, based on Heather at My Glittery Heart's recommendation.
These exercise bands were on Grace's wishlist.
Jack has started lifting weights at the gym, and this wishlist item is a big hit.
Here's another gift that Jack received. He loves it. He said he was getting looks in class because his mouse made so much of a clicking sound. Problem solved! (Most students use the trackpad, but he likes the mouse.)
Here's a fun little stocking stuffer for Michael.
I bought this tote bag for my niece, and now Grace and I both wish we had one. It has some great organizing compartments and the quality is great.
This is a repurchase - this time for my niece who will be going to college in the fall.
A gift for my sister-in-law
A gift for my niece
Michael loves this phone/airpod/watch charger.
I think I saw this one recommended here on Prime Purchases!
My sister-in-law asked for this charger. It looks like another winner.
Michael got air tags for his birthday. We put one in each car and...
one on Albie's collar in this waterproof case.
A repurchase of my fave brow pencil
and my favorite whitening eye drops.
I had worn these flip flops out, so I asked for a replacement for Christmas. These are my favorite beach/pool/yard/quick errands flip flops!
My pretty new phone case
Thanks to Heather at My Glittery Heart for this recommendation.
Now I can organize the cords of our mixer, coffee maker, etc.
One last thing...I had two posts last month about updates around the house: the living room here and bedrooms here. I am so pleased with all of the items I ordered for these updates, so be sure to check them out. I think the biggest winner is the recliner from Walmart, great price and quality!

Tanya! I’m so happy you got Airtags, can you report back in a month or so on how you like them? We have one and sometimes it works like a charm and sometimes it doesn’t work at all. I’m wondering if I got a faulty one? Thanks! Love that the link up is on Monday now!

I will definitely report back. I know it depends on surrounding iphones to provide the tracking, so that could make it patchy on reporting back if there aren't other phones nearby. It's kind of crazy how it works. Happy New Year!
DeleteThanks so much for hosting. I linked up with #3. Hubby would love those Auburn cards and pennant, he's a Tiger fan living in Tuscaloosa surrounded by Bama fans. I prefer a mouse too over a trackpad. I've been looking at those food storage bags wondering if they're worth buying. I recently bought those cord organizers too, I like them!
ReplyDeleteThe storage bags look really nice. I don't use as many zip loc bags now that I'm not packing lunches. That's so funny about being an Auburn fan in the middle of Bama fans. Happy New Year!
DeleteHappy New Year Tanya! Thanks for hosting the party and I love that it's on Monday now. I will have to check out that charger and the cord organizers...very cool!
ReplyDeleteI think everyone likes the change to Monday! Happy New Year!
DeleteThank you for hosting us again this year! And thanks for that eyebrow pencil rec- I just ordered one in the same shade of taupe, since my eyebrows are naturally light. I cannot wait to try it when it comes! It'll be here Wednesday. ❤
ReplyDeleteI hope you like it. I have tried many others, but always come back to the Elf one. I think it is better than many higher end pencils! Happy new year!
DeleteThanks for hosting again!!!! I see the birdie all over tiktok but have never known someone to have one. I would imagine you like it if your gifting it to your niece to?
ReplyDeleteIt works really well. To be honest, I don't know if Grace uses it on her backpack. But I feel better just knowing that she has it as an option.
DeleteThanks for continuing this link up! We were just talking about getting an air tag for Homer! The food storage bags look like something I could use for my lunches. I've never heard of a silent mouse! Genius.
ReplyDeleteWe feel a little more secure knowing if Albie got out, we could track him. Thanks for joining in!
DeleteI’m with Jack. I like a mouse too and the wireless ones are great. Fab finds here and it’s my favorite link up too. I’ve contemplated to quit blogging but ones like this keep be going. Thank you and Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteOh no, Andrea...don't quit blogging! You're a bright light here in blog world. :)
DeleteMay have to have that all in one charger since that would make my life much simpler. :o) Always, always enjoy this link up and blessings abundant to you and yours in 2023!
ReplyDeleteThe multi device chargers always seem so smart to me! I also really like your flip flops!
ReplyDeletePutting an airtag on a dog is such a good idea! We have the Life360 app on our phones for us, but I know a lot of parents who stick airtags in their kids' backpacks to track them and make sure they got to school, etc.
ReplyDeleteMy Sanuk yoga mat flip-flops are what I wear around the house in the summer. They've been going strong since 2017.
Those cord organizers are going on my list of things to buy!
ReplyDeleteThose cord organizers are on my wish list. I need to buy the Birdies for my girls. Thanks for hosting again in 2023!
ReplyDeleteGreat post, Tanya! I'm adding a couple of these items to my Christmas Shopping List for 2023. I'm going to stop working sometime this year so I'm looking forward to rejoining the blogsphere. Reading is fun, but I really miss writing posts. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to buy myself some exercise bands.. I used to have a few that came with our Wii sports kit and I loved working out with them but they've all either been broken or lost since then.
ReplyDeleteOh so much goodness in one post- thanks for all of the inspiration Tanya!
ReplyDeleteThose airtags are lifesavers. Thanks for hosting and I wish you a healthy 2023!
ReplyDeleteOh that is absolutely brilliant to put an air tag on Albie's collar!!!! So so smart!
ReplyDeleteWhoa! Wait a minute! I had no idea that eye whitening drops existed. My eyes are ALWAYS red! I'll be trying this for sure!
ReplyDeleteYou definitely had some great purchases! I need to grab some of those airtags! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun assortment! I love the cord holder for the mixer and the travel bag. It looks like you hit the jackpot with amazon Christmas gifts. I'm linking up tomorrow! Thanks for hosting :)
ReplyDeleteLove the tote bag and the water bottle! The bag is super cute!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year sweet Tanya! I am so sorry I could not get my act together to get my post done - ugh! But I certainly enjoyed yours. I really like that phone stand charger - I may need that for myself. You found some great things this month! And that recliner from Walmart looks so nice - I want to replace my family room furniture but we're not quite ready yet. I love a good room refresh!
ReplyDeletexo,
Kellyann
Wait...do you put an airtag on your dog? I love that idea!!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year. I really need to start using Air Tags when I travel and for other things. Looks like you got some great items last month.
ReplyDeletelove the prime post every month!
