Transcript

I have a hack, all I hack for you and it's only gonna cost you $3. Before we start, though, can we talk about how this Target walking at 8 AM, the music is blaring and I'm kind of here for it. But if you are someone who is constantly carrying a lot of drinks from point A to point B, whether that is just in your personal life, if you're bringing drinks to your coworkers, and you don't want to spill them from your car to wherever you're taking them to, this is such a hack, affordable, comes in four colors. Trust me, you're gonna want to see this. So down here in the back to school section, they have this entire section of affordable organization bins. They're all $3. But down here, these are little caddies. We have pink, this really pretty like Robin's egg green, we have blue and we have white. I'm, you know, I'm gonna get the pink. Look at this. This is, you can totally use this for things other than drinks, but for me, in my life, when I go get a drink, I have to get it for me, my husband and my kids. So I'm bringing in four drinks at a time. And sometimes when I go get a drink, they're out of the little carriers. Making trips to my car to my home, which it's not a big deal. But if I can save myself for the hassle for only $3, I'm going to get this. And keep this in my car. This is phenomenal. You could get two of them and carry 12 drinks at a time without spilling them. How fun is this? Three bucks. We love a little life hack.
