Find of the Week ~ |
You ever stumble across something and immediately think, “Where has this been all my life?” That’s how we felt about this week’s fun find: Rechargeable Hand Warmers - in a 2-pack with a charging case! Perfect for chilly morning commutes, winter walks, or outdoor adventures like golf and hunting. They’re dual-sided, long-lasting, and rechargeable. No more burning through disposable warmers. Honestly, a small thing that makes a big difference when the temps dip. Bonus idea ~ they make great stocking stuffers! |
