Are you willing to buy them again?
Here are 40 things I purchased on Amazon in 2021 that I would buy again.
Personalized Dog Tags
They say that you did well through the pandemic if you made it through without buying an air fryer or a puppy.
Well, we made it through without an air fryer, but Sarah did get a puppy.
We got Cocoa Powder a cute little bone tag from Amazon.
The best part is I didn’t pay cash for it.
I simply used my Fetch Rewards to make this purchase.

Dog Training Collar
I love this electronic dog collar because we can just hit the sound button and the beeping sound grabs Cocoa’s attention enough to make her stop doing whatever we wanted her to stop doing.
50pcs KN95 Face Mask
Face masks.
The unexpected new thing to keep on hand.
Femometer Touchless Thermometer
We couldn’t find a thermometer anywhere in 2020.
Every time we had a phone conversation with a health professional, they wanted to know our temperatures.
I love this thermometer that I found in 2021 on Amazon.
Colgate Toothbrushes Premier Extra Clean ( 12 Toothbrushes)
I always love to stay stocked up on the basics of life.
I grabbed a bunch of these Colgate toothbrushes when the price dropped way down.
I paid around 40 cents per brush!
Scott Essential Professional 2-PLY Standard Rolls, White, 80 Rolls
Who doesn’t want to make sure they are stocked up on toilet paper after what we have all been through over the past few years.
I picked up an eighty-pack case for under $50.00.
It gets marked down often, so keep your eye on it if you want to stock up too.
Luggable Loo Portable 5 Gallon Toilet
There are so many good reasons to have a portable Luggable Loo on hand.
#1 – Only one bathroom – These make great emergency use potties.
#2 – Road trips!
#3 – Camping
#4 – Quarantined family members can have their own portable toilet.
How would you use a Luggable Loo?
The Homesteader's Herbal Companion: The Ultimate Guide to Growing, Preserving, and Using Herbs
I love this book, The Homesteader’s Herbal Companion.
I plan on writing a review on it in 2022, so watch for it!
Premium Organic Moringa Powder
Moringa is a superfood.
It is said to have 10 times more vitamins than carrots, 7 times more Vitamin C than oranges, 17 times more calcium than milk, and 15 times more potassium than bananas!
I like to order my Moringa powder, then put it into capsules myself to use as my multivitamin.
I am not a doctor, nutritionist, or health professional, but I do encourage you to do your own research on Moringa to see if it is right for you and your family.
Organic Essiac Tea
I use Essiac tea, also known as Floressence, for its health benefits too.
Again, I am not a doctor, nutritionist, or health professional, but I do encourage you to do your own research on Moringa to see if it is right for you and your family.
1000 Gelatin Capsules Clear Size 00 Empty Capsules
Truthfully, both Moringa and Essiac taste pretty bad.
That is why I order these gelatin capsules and fill them myself.
Essiac is meant to be brewed and taken in tea form, but these capsules make taking my homemade Moringa vitamins super easy.
Burpee Kaleidoscope Blend Non-GMO Rainbow Carrot
It was so much fun to pull multicolored carrots out of the garden in 2021.
I definitely want to buy more!
Lemon Balm Seeds (1000 Seeds)
I love Lemon Balm.
It smells wonderful.
I love to grab a few leaves and just smell them as I walk through the gardens.
It also makes wonderful tea.
Calendula 100+ Seeds
There are so many wonderful uses for Calendula.
They can be used in homemade remedies, lotions, and ointments.
They are edible, plus they are just lovely to look at in the garden.
2 Pack Solar Lights Outdoor
It is said that light is one of your home’s best defenses.
I love these solar-powered motion detector lights.
I plan on ordering some more.
7 Piece Stainless Steel Mixing Bowls with Lids for Kitchen
My daughter, Sophia, got married in 2021.
When I asked her what she wanted for her bridal shower, she responded, Mixing bowls!
We both love this 7-piece stainless steel mixing bowl set I found on Amazon.
Math War Multiplication Game Cards
My youngest daughter, Sarah, and the grandkids had so much fun practicing math facts with these fun Math War cards.
Math War Addition & Subtraction Game Cards
Math War comes in both the multiplication cards and the addition & subtraction ones.
The kids had fun and I loved that they were super cheap.
I paid just over two bucks per pack!
Wild Kratts Race Around the World Board Game
Sarah loves the Wild Kratts.
That is why I was so excited when I found a Wild Kratts game on Amazon!
This is the game I gave her this Christmas, and she loved it.
We have had so much fun playing it already.
An American Christmas Carol DVD
My daughter, Judy’s favorite movie is A Christmas Carol.
I thought I would shake things up a little this Christmas, so her movie gift was, An American Christmas Carol.
She loved it!
Thomas Kinkade's Christmas Cottage DVD
My daughter, Christina, is an amazing artist, so I thought she would enjoy the Thomas Kinkade Christmas Cottage movie.
Overall, it was an interesting little biography of Thomas Kinkade, although I didn’t appreciate the swearing in the movie.
Timeless Classics - Family Film 12 Pack DVD
Sarah loves to watch old-fashioned type shows, so her Christmas DVD contained 12 timeless classics, like Heidi, Sounder, and Alice in Wonderland.
Fire 7 tablet, 7" display, 16 GB
Sarah’s birthday was in November.
I decided to order her a tablet of her own.
I figured she could do a lot of her school on it, plus use it recreationally.
She was shocked and absolutely loved it.
I loved that Ibotta paid for it instead of me!
I had acquired enough Ibotta points to purchase an Amazon card valued high enough to completely pay for Sarah’s new tablet.
Ibotta makes it pretty easy to earn money fast by purchasing things you already planned on buying anyway!
If you decide to start earning extra spending cash with Ibotta, please use my referral code.

Lipton Gallon-Sized Iced Tea Bags
Tea is one of my favorite beverages.
I love these gallon size tea bags for making iced tea.
Are you a tea drinker?
Carnation Breakfast Essentials
These Breakfast Essentials are a great way to make sure you and your children are getting all the nutrition needed on those days when a full-course breakfast isn’t doable.
Betty Crocker Wild Blueberry Muffin and Quick Bread Mix
This was just a fun purchase I made to surpise Sarah.
She normally makes everything from scratch, but it is always nice to change things up a little.
Radish Sprouting Seeds
I keep a variety of sprouting seeds on hand.
Sprouting seeds give me the ability to always be able to provide fresh greens for my family, even in the dead of winter.
Radish sprouts only take a couple days to grow.
I like to eat them fresh from the sprouting jar.
I also add them to salads and sandwiches.
Organic Alfalfa Seeds For Sprouting
I typically have more than one type of sprouting seed going at a time.
They mix well and taste great.
Antioxidant Mix of Sprouting Seeds, 8 Ounces - Broccoli, Clover, Alfalfa, Kosher, Raw, Vegan
This package of sprouting seeds is already a mixture of different seeds, including broccoli, clover, and alfalfa.
Vacuum Sealer Bags, 6 Pack 3 Rolls 8"x16.4' and 3 Rolls 11"x16.4' Food Saver Bag Rolls
I was really hesitant about buying these off-brand Food Saver bags at first.
Now, I wouldn’t buy anything else.
These are great quality bags at a fraction of the price.
Mountain House Breakfast Skillet
I love to add new things to my long-term food storage.
I call my long-term food storage my retirement plan.
This package of Breakfast Skillet has a 30-Year Taste Guarantee!
30 years!
I don’t really just save it all though.
I love to have shelf-stable food on the shelves.
It cuts way down on emergency trips to the store to buy perishables.
Augason Farms Dehydrated Potato Shreds
I almost always have fresh potatoes on hand.
I also can a lot of my own potatoes, but I still like to have dehydrated potatoes on my long-term food storage shelves.
Augason Farms Dehydrated Potato Slices
I watch Amazon for long-term food storage items that I use in my everyday life to get marked down, then I buy some.
Dehydrated Diced Carrots
Carrots are another everyday item in my kitchen.
I don’t want to start to make a nice soup, stew, or casserole only to realize I am out of fresh carrots with no alternative.
I do dehydrate a lot of my own carrots, but I love that these are sealed and guaranteed to still be fresh in 25 years!
Augason Farms Dehydrated Chopped Onions
No kitchen should ever run out of onions.
Onions are a staple!
I never want to run out of sweet Bell peppers.
I use fresh if I have them.
I use a lot of my home dehydrated peppers.
But, I love the security of having these cans of peppers sitting on my shelf.
Augason Farms Cheese Blend Powder
I know that many of my friends have given up on dairy, including cheese, but my family would feel like they were suffering a great deal if we were to ever run out!
Augason Farms Honey Powder
I actually buy my honey in 5-gallon buckets from local providers, but I like to have this powdered honey on hand too.
Augason Farms Dehydrated Apple Slices
I like to have a variety of fruit and veggies on hand too.
Dehydrated Apple Slices can be eaten straight from the package, or used in baking.
You can even mix up some applesauce with them.
Augason Farms Freeze Dried Sliced Strawberries
Dehydrated strawberries make a yummy snack straight from the package.
You can also grind them up and sprinkle on food to add a little strawberry flavoring.
You can cook with them too.
Augason Farms Banana Chips
My kids and grandchildren love banana chips.
It’s hard to keep them stocked!
They can be eaten as is, or rehydrated to use in baking things like banana bread.
Augason Farms Dried Whole Egg Product
BONUS #1 – I didn’t buy any Whole Egg Powder in 2021 because I still had a good stockpile.
I use my egg powder a lot.
It is not an emergency if I am in the middle of baking only to realize my fresh eggs are all gone.
I just reach for the egg powder on the pantry shelf.
My adult children, grandkids, and even my father love it when I make up a big batch of just-add-water homemade pancake mix.
I wouldn’t be able to make this without my dehydrated eggs!
Augason Farms Butter Powder
BONUS #2 – I was also fully stocked up on my Butter Powder.
I like to sprinkle my hot popcorn with butter powder.
I add it to many dishes.
I save on fresh butter by adding a little butter powder and olive oil into a pan before frying up meat.
