Things to Buy on Amazon with Hoe Money
Sometimes I take Amazon gift cards for skype payments, panty sales, etc. Instead of using that balance on cheap lingerie or shitty toys, here is a list of a some cool, practical things that I have bought on Amazon with those gift cards or have gotten from my wish list.
**If you are new to camming/content making: This business happens to be full of time wasters and assholes. Make sure that you don't send out any videos, panties, etc without first physically receiving the items on your wish list. Assholes can cancel their orders after you have sent out your stuff so make sure you receive your gift before fulfilling. Also, sometimes Amazon will send your zip code (and in rare cases, possibly the delivery addresses) to fans that buy you things on your wish list. I highly suggest using a PO box to receive your gifts. I have one about 45 mins away from my house and I make the drive to ensure my privacy. I have one through the UPS store and I think I pay about $200ish a year. Sounds pricey but if really recommended if you have a fan base that sends you things often. I also use the PO box return address on items I sell so that I don't have to use my home address.* If you do get a PO box, make sure you check it regularly (or have a notification sent to your phone when you receive something) because if you leave your gifts for 5+ days, they could start charging you fees to hold your items.**
Cam/clip model stuff:
The best ring light IN THE WORLD: Ok, this light is pricey if you are just starting out BUT I promise this light will change your content. I have both the older version of those (with the tube light) and the new version pictured here. I recommend the new one listed here. It is tubeless, can withstand plenty of kitty-knocking-this-over-abuse, and you can change the color temperature. I use this every single time I film. It also comes with a little attachment where you can attach your camera or phone and film through the light. Highly recommend.
Logitech webcam: I'm listing the 922 here but the 920 works just fine. I listed the 922 since it has a bit better quality and auto corrects more quietly than the 920, plus it's like 15 bucks more for the 922. I started out using my default webcam and just lamps but once I bought this webcam, the quality of my stream definitely improved. This camera is super tough also. I have shot it repeatedly with a Nerf gun and it is still totally fine. I've had to replace it about once every year and a half or so because the USB connection starts to wear.
Fairy lights: I use the 3M stick up hangers and drape fairy lights on them behind my bed. This particular one listed has different modes and doesn't get too hot, unlike others I have had in the past. I've had these particular ones for 3 years now and they only have 2 light bulbs burned out.
External Mic: I sometimes use a mic for stuff like voice over in my vids when my neighbors finally decide to mow their lawn the second I turn my camera on to film vids. I've had this mic for a year and it is still in good shape, again after all the kitty abuse of being knocked off my desk constantly. I don't sing into it or anything so it might not be suitable for actual recording but it does super well with standard voice over stuff.
External Storage: I store all of my clips and pictures on an external drive, so that it doesn't take up all the space on my computer. I have the one listed in the 5TB size (no longer listed) and I have over 500+ videos stored on it & there is still plenty of room left. The 3 TB listed seems like plenty of space. Really easy to use- I just transfer all of my content onto this storage as soon as I have edited a vid.
Instax Camera: This fun little camera takes tiny little Polaroid like pics and then you can turn around and sell them as fun one of a kind photos. Film found here.
Toys: There are SO MANY toys on Amazon that aren't body safe so please please please be careful. I only use this toy as a prop for videos and don't actually insert it. I have taken it traveling with me and took photos of it in front of landmarks and shit. Pretty funny. Even after 5 years and being thrown around, it's in great shape.
My One True Love: Who needs a man when you have a hitachi? This one is even cordless. I'm not even going to write anymore because you all know how great this is.
Home stuff:
Steam Mop: Every adult with tile, hardwood, or vinyl should own a steam mop. They are super easy to use and get your floors really clean. I fill mine with some vinegar and water (says distilled but yeah fucking right, I'm not driving to target because I don't have distilled. I use tap water and whatever, it's fine.) It dries super quickly also. It will get pretty hot though so watch your toes if you hold it in one place for 15+ seconds.
Carpet Shampoo-er: If you have pets or kids, your carpets are probably grossies like mine. I have had several different shampoo-ers through out my life and this one if the easiest to use. I'm a tiny little girl with zero strength and I can easily carry this around and even upstairs. I just use the standard carpet cleaning solution that I find at target but have been on the lookout for a more natural option. Will update here when I find one.
Pregnancy Pillow: Not just for pregnant ladies! I love to snuggle with a body pillow so I was searching on Amazon and they suggested this in the lineup. I ordered it and haven't slept without it since. My brother and mother both bought them after taking a test drive nap with mine. I have no idea how I slept without this before.
Salt Lamp: I am obsessed with salt lamps. I have one in every room of my house. This one is my favorite and people are constantly asking me where I got it. I've never seen another square one like this out in the wild, lol. It doesn't get very hot and is still in really good shape for the 4 years I've had it.
Sound Machine: My brother has a sound sensitivity and has a real problem sleeping when he can hear birds and noises outside. I bought him this sound machine a few years ago & now he can't sleep without it. I even had to buy him the travel version for him to use when he sleeps at my parent's house. I'm pretty sure they recommend these for babies but it works for bratty brothers too.
Pots and Pans: I received this as a house warming gift from my favorite sissy and am so happy with this set. These replaced a beloved Caphalon set but I've been way more pleased with All Clad. Works well on a gas cook top and cooks pretty evenly.
Knife Set: This knife set has been the best set I've ever had. I ended up ordering more of the steak knives because I sometimes have more than 4 people over for brunch. I rarely sharpen them and I throw them into the dishwasher (which I know, I know, I'm not supposed to do) but they have held up super well regardless of my laziness.
Cutting Board: This is an excellent cutting board. It doesn't warp, it is easy to clean, and it has little grooves that hold the juices from dripping all over your counter top.
Blender: I have a big giant ninja blender and I never ever pull it out. It is heavy, clunky, and I never have all the pieces together. I bought this little one for my one serving smoothies that I make and it's so much easier. You can even use the blending bottle as a cup to drink out of with the little plastic cap.
Aromatherapy Diffuser: I don't like to use room sprays in my house because of the zoo that lives here but I do use this on the second floor of my house, where my animals are not allowed. (I don't use this around my animals because I am paranoid that the smell is too much for them.) I put in some essential oils and water and just let the water run out and the system automatically shuts off. It turns different colors and holds a few hours worth of water.
Ramen Kit: I ordered this through their website and then found it a few dollars cheaper on Amazon (dammit, I hate when I spend more than I have to....) Anyway, the ramen kit is VERY good and super easy to make. The Peruvian chicken is very good too. Most of the items are freeze dried or in pouches and can sit in your pantry for 2 months without refrigeration. The portions say feeds four but I've easily fed 6 people on both the ramen and the chicken. Make sure you add the suggestions like the boiled eggs... Really good.
Cat Tree: This cat tree is like the Taj Mahal of cat trees. Takes about an hour to put together but my cats couldn't wait for it to be completed before they jumped on it so could take less than that if you don't have to fend off kitties. It has a weird little swingy hammock thing at the bottom that they couldn't give a shit less about but every other thing on here is used for hours daily. Supports one full grown kitty and one psychopath little nut job kitty. I don't think it will have any trouble supporting both of them when they are older and bigger.
Home Security Cams: I actually bought this on QVC when they had it as their Today's Special Value but this is the same set (QVC has 4 camera option for a better price than Amazon.) I can watch this on my phone, it saves clips to the cloud (for no extra cost, some companies charge for this service), and the camera quality is really really really good. Even records sound. I have 3 outside and 1 inside my home and I will be adding more to the inside so I can watch the dogs and make sure the house isn't burning down or whatever I worry about when I'm away.
Chandelier: I have the bigger version of this but they don't have it on the site anymore so this is the link to the smaller one. Really fucking beautiful and was easily installed by someone that had only previously installed a ceiling fan. HOWEVER, it comes without a single part of this attached so you will spend hours and hours and hours with little white gloved hands putting the pieces on. I bought a little ring for the ceiling above it and it's absolutely beautiful. I can even see it shine from outside in the yard looking through the window.
Bed Frame: I love this bed frame. The cats are constantly trying to destroy it with their little razor blade finger nails but it keeps holding up. I also shoot a lot of porn on this bed and it's still in great shape, lol.
Hangers: I have converted all of the clothes in my house on to these hangers. You can get cheaper ones at Marshall's but Joy's hangers here are far superior. They are heavier and thicker and can hold much more weight than those cheap shitters.
Self Care:
Massage Wand: Ok, not the massage wand you thought you would find on a "must haves for hoe list" lol but this one works wonders too. Allows you to get to pressure points in your back pretty easily.
Arnica Bath Salts: These bath salts are almost as good as CBD bath bombs. Helps your muscles relax and will make your aches and pains a bit better.
Tea Diffuser Bottle: I drink a lot of tea but mostly cold tea. I make my hot tea in this bottle, let it steep and cool, and then add ice to the bottle once cooled. Very handy when I'm out running errands and saves me a ton of time and money instead of going to Starbucks everyday,
Foot Pads: I don't know if these things really work but I seem to have convinced myself that I sleep better with these things on. They are all gross by the morning but they are like some really fun science experiment.
Foot Peel: Now this shit is like some science fiction scary movie shit. Put it on and a while later, your feet will start to peel. Like layers and layers of skin. But then after the freak out wears off, you will have baby soft feet.
Coconut Oil: After spending time with a friend that claims everything can be cured with coconut oil, I realized she is right. Or at least, coconut oil can be used on so many things. I put this on my face and neck at night, put it on my doggie's sunburned little nosey, and coat the ends of my hair in it once a week. This is my favorite brand.
Natural Deodorant: I put out a call for natural deodorant a few months ago because I was having breast pain from deo with aluminum and someone replied with this link. I tried it (although I actually found it in Marshall's for half the price as here but it's the same as listed here.) I love it. It smells just like Palo Santo and is real earthy. I have to reapply a few times a day but it's my new go to deo. (They also have a lavender sent that is really great.)
Crystals: I have a ton of crystal that I have ordered from other places but I had this one on my wish list and a good friend bought it for me. It's so fucking brilliant and beautiful. I have never seen another amethyst as bright and beautiful as this one. It truly looks as brilliant as the photos.
I know I'm forgetting a ton of stuff so I will update this as I remember, lol.
