One bottle can help keep you headache-free for up to 55 glasses depending on how many drops you use.

Promising review: "I drank wine one night and did not use the drops. WOW, my IBS hit me like a knife! This proves that they really do work. I wish I had an option to give this product 10 stars!!!! I have had IBS for several years and last fall my IBS went into overdrive, after trying to figure out what was possibly causing it I realized that I have been drinking more red wine then usual. I researched it and sulfates in wine are known to irritate people with IBS. I put five drops in a glass of wine and stir it with a spoon; it does not change the taste of the wine. My youngest daughter also has IBS. I had her try it and it also cured her sulfate issues. I thought that I would have to give up wine, but no more!!!" —Keywest

Promising review: "I have several houseplants that had stopped flowering, so I put a few of these spikes in the pot (there are directions on the back of package for quantity), and approximately a month after using these spikes, my peace lily had three flowers on it, and my African violets plants all got several blooms on them! This worked wonders for my plants that don't flower also! I noticed that my ivy and cactus plants started growing faster, and they became more green and healthy looking. I am very happy with this product, and I will buy it again." —Elizabeth

Promising review: "My girlfriend is a coffee lover and a backpacker. This is a bad combination because until this device appeared on the market, there was no way to get a really good cup of coffee on the trail. And, like most coffee lovers, things could get really ugly in the morning if she didn't get a great cup of coffee. JoGo makes a great cup of coffee, according to my girl. It's also light and compact and durable, so it should survive well on the trail. Which bodes well for my own survival. Thank you JoGo! You saved my life! Update: We did a backpacking trip to Joshua Tree National Park specifically to test the JoGo in the wild. It worked perfectly. My girl loves it!" —Ron

Promising review: "The recipients of this poster loved the idea. They are an outgoing and adventurous couple. They said they would be hanging this in their office space and scratching them off as they complete them. They commented that moving to another country might not ever be scratched off but they are looking forward to doing as many as they can." —VLR

Promising review: "I ordered this as a gift for my boyfriend who is a pilot. My thought was we could use it to scratch off places we visit together or even places he has flown to for work. He absolutely loved it! It is the perfect size, perfect for framing and hanging on the wall; he plans to get an open frame and scratch off places while it hangs on the wall. It was delivered tube style and I was hesitant about some countries being scratched off like others noted but it was delivered spotless! I highly recommend this map for anyone. I’m not sure I could’ve found a better quality map either!" —Ashley C.

Promising review: "This book was a lot of fun to fill in with fun memories and personalized sentiments. There are many, many pages so be prepared to sit down and think of a lot of ideas to completely fill this book. I gave this to my boyfriend as a gift and he thought it was so sweet that he cried the good kind of tears. Very clever gift idea." —Denise K

Kit comes with molds, deco pen, stamps, and wrappers.

Promising review: "We use Enjoy Life chocolate chips to make dairy-free chocolate bars and it is so much fun. This kit has been great. We've been using it for a couple of years now. We make chocolates for Halloween, Christmas, etc. I highly recommend this kit! I don't really use the red squeeze bottle though, I find you end up wasting chocolate that way. We just use a double boiler to melt the chocolate and then spoon it into the molds." —H. Collins

Promising review: "This cup holder is perfect! It helps me a lot! Last time I took a plane with a suitcase and a cup of coffee, when it was my turn to check my passport and ticket, the coffee cup fell to the ground and coffee spilled. It was a nightmare! This time I bought this cup holder! I don't have to worry about where my cup and phone are! I can free my hands to do other things. I love it so much! Hope you love it too." —Philip

Promising review: "After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me, smells great too. Here's how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt is visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, then I used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like myself." —LuckLocust

Promising review: "I spend about 90% of my day silently screaming at the computer because, well, welcome to customer service. Since this little goat arrived, I no longer look like I am practicing for my appearance on Jerry Springer. I just push the little goat. He screams (but not in a disruptive way). I smile. I am no longer annoyed. I survived peak season because of this goat. I owe my sanity to you, screaming goat." —Gab

Promising review: "This is by far the cutest idea! I love that this is a mystery box and what you get is completely random. I think this was a melon type of hat and it fit puurfectly! My cat is rather small but the hat has a good stretch to it and seems decently made as well. If you're thinking about purchasing this just do it, you won't regret it!" —Daniel Pollack

Promising review: "I love this! I got it for me and my partner and I'm very happy with it. It's very well made; I love all the details and the care that went into it. It was packaged securely and delivery was quite fast. I can't wait to watch all the movies and find new favorites!" —Amy

Promising review: "I LOVE this thing. The air is lightly heated and I really enjoy the option to add essential oils to scent the air while you soak. In my opinion this product is superior to a jetted tub in that it requires very little maintenance. I allow the pump to run for a few seconds after the tub has completely drained, and then I use the suction cups to hang it on the wall of the tub to allow any residual water to drain out. If I am not using it for more than a few days I roll it up and store it when it is completely dry. It is rare for it to be stored though because I love it. Once you figure out the mechanics of how the bubbles work you can position yourself so that more bubbles are directed to your neck or the small of your back. I highly recommend this product to anyone who loves to soak but doesn't want the high maintenance of a jetted tub." —Marty

Promising review: "This cookbook brings Disney Magic to your kitchen! If you have grown up going to the Disney Parks or discovered them as an adult then you know that, easily, one of the greatest aspects is the food. I always wanted that food when I got home and now I can have it. This book is so comprehensive, covering the best dishes organized by park. It is a beautiful book that will bring our family magic for years to come!!!" —Jason M. Bernhisel

Promising review: "I got these for my husband who loses everything! It's a full-time job constantly looking for his keys, phone, etc. I have been wanting to buy these for years and I am mad at myself that I waited so long! So now when my husband loses something he just hits the button! Several times a week to several times a day. Every single time he does I tell myself Merry Christmas! It's the best gift I have ever gotten myself! It's also like having three gifts in one since he can hit the button to also find his phone. (Merry Christmas to me!) I love not dropping whatever I am doing to look around for his lost item. (Merry Christmas to me!) I love not hearing him fuss and being overdramatic because his keys are 'lost forever!' (Merry Christmas to me!) Get it, it's worth it." —Lori

Promising review: "These hooks work great and function exactly the way I had hoped for! I actually turned them around and use them for the front of the seat. These hooks have solved the dreaded 'bag dump' when you have to brake suddenly. No more lunch spilling all over the inside of my work bag!!" —katie grimm

Promising review: "I use a loofah everyday, so I just bought this to use once a week, not thinking it would do much if anything. Man, was I wrong!!! I read reviews, viewed pictures, and watched the videos. I assumed they all used tanning products or spray tans, because the skin in the tub was brown/black. OMG, mine was too!!! I haven't tanned in 15 or so years. It was gross. On the bright side, my skin really does feel great. Just get it, seriously..." —Kim McMahon

Promising review: "Bought this handy little thing to use with on a family vacation since our flight didn't have in-flight entertainment screens. It clipped right onto the pull-out tray just like the product photo and kept my toddler entertained (thank god) for our short flight. Love the simplicity — it's light and compact (folds to the length my palm), has good rotation (head clicks into place) and is surprisingly versatile. I use it to browse articles in the morning (folded into a kickstand on the table), follow recipes in the kitchen (clamped to a cabinet door above my cutting board), and to watch stuff hands-free (clamped to a side table) when the kiddo/husband is hogging the TV. Buying another one for our next vacation since this one is staying at home!" —ThatCookieCutterLife

Promising review: "10 out of 5 stars. Status: Legendary! It is a true marvel of science, magically producing perfect frozen yogurt from fruit, yes that's right, magic. It blew my mind how similar it is to real ice cream. If you had placed a bowl in front of me, I dare say I would not recognize its true composition of pure fruit. I can say with confidence, this magic frozen yogurt leaves you feeling full, like you've just had a bowl of ice cream...for breakfast. Which I will admit without shame is my dream breakfast, but a breakfast I have held out on for the sheer sake of dignity, until now my friends. Furthermore, I nominate the creators of this glorious feat of engineering for the Edison Award, or an award of comparable recognition in the categories of invention and nutrition. Bravo! Yonanas inventors, Bravo! You...are...legends." —Tosh

Promising review: "I absolutely love this and am amazed at how much fuller my brows look! Application is also super easy and quick! I took three pictures. Top picture is before I applied it. Middle picture is after application. Third picture is after I've drawn a line under my brow to clean up the look and filled in some sparse areas." —P.A.
