You’ve probably used Amazon in the last few months.

Whether it’s to buy a new book or gadget, or whether you want to order groceries and watch TV – Amazon has all our needs neatly in one place. Of course, we all have different needs and we don’t always want to buy the same thing!

We’ve compiled a list of Amazon’s ‘Must Haves’ that both make total sense and yet are also a shining example of what the platform has to offer. Check these out…

Please note that Editor Choice may profit from any purchases made through this story.



Nicholas Cage Pillow

Buy it on Amazon for $19.95

Ok, we love a good Nicholas Cage movie as much as anyone. And we also love pillows. But we never quite thought we would ‘need’ this pillow of Nicholas Cage. Strangely, these items are in production and can be shipped all over the world.

via Amazon

It’s important to note that the 15.7”x15.7” cover is exactly that: just a cover – no pillow included! The sequined design also makes it fun to play with, as well as unique decoration that is sure to leave an impression on houseguests.


Cards Against Humanity

Buy it on Amazon for $25.00

One of the most popular games to come out of America in recent years, Cards Against Humanity is the self-described ‘party game for horrible people’. It’s based on the classic game ‘Apples to Apples’, where players match answers to incomplete questions and statements.

via Amazon

The biggest attraction to Cards Against Humanity is its un-PC and risky nature – often showing players who their friends really are! It originated in 2011 after a successful Kickstarter campaign. It contains more than 500 cards and millions of possibilities.


Nintendo Switch

Buy it on Amazon for $299.00

At the very top of Amazon’s ‘Video Game’ section sits the Nintendo Switch. The console was released in 2017 and is widely considered a huge success for the company. It’s a hybrid console that can be used as a stationary or portable device and can be played online.

via Amazon

The Ninento Switch arrived at the perfect time for the company which had seen declining sales and revenue since 2010. Today, it is played by children around the world and includes classic characters like Mario and Luigi in all new adventures.


A LICKI Brush

Buy it on Amazon for $18.95

This one caught us a bit off guard, but wanted to include it here. The LICKI brush is literally a tongue brush for your cat. As if cat owners needed another way to get closer to their cat! Owners can simply bite down on this external tongue and ‘stroke’ their cat with a large tongue.

via Amazon

This is certainly a gimmick but is cheap enough to buy on an impulse and see your cat love you even more! Stocks for this particular item often run out (bizarrely), so it’s worth a quick purchase.


Becoming – Michelle Obama

Buy it on Amazon for $21.45

One of the most popular books on Amazon, Becoming is the first memoir from former First Lady Michelle Obama. Of course, she was in the White House between 2009-2017 while her husband served as President of the United States. Two years after he left public office, Michelle has now released her account of what life was like in Washington.

This book is considered compulsory reading for any political junkie and fan of women. Obama has described herself as ‘one of the most iconic and compelling women of our era.’
