1. Chi Flat Iron
I have curly/wavy hair, and like to wear it straight occasionally because it's just easier. Blowdrying works OK, but it never gets truly straight unless I have it done at a salon. And on a humid day - forget it! My mom got me a shiny red CHI flat iron for the holidays and it is AMAZING! My hair gets pin-straight in less than 5 minutes, and stays that way through any kind of weather. I've gotten so many compliments on my hair when it's straight, too. I know it's damaging so I only do it once a week, or for special occasions. But it's a great option to have when a good hair day is a must!
2. Bracketron GPS Friction Mount
I got a GPS last Christmas, but the suction cup thingy meant to attach it to the dashboard didn't work. A friend suggested a friction mount, and I finally got around to ordering this Bracketron Friction Mount from Amazon.com 2 weeks ago. It came last week and quickly rocketed to the top of my favorites list. It really does stay put, even around corners. And it puts the GPS at perfect eye level. I can glance at the map without taking my eyes off the road, and because the GPS is no longer sitting on my lap the speakers are exposed and easier to hear.
I just got this awesome new phone for free with my "New Every 2" discount. I was very happy with my old flip phone except that it took 10 minutes to type a text message using the typical phone keypad. I'm not a huge texter, but my friends are so I had to bite the bullet and get a qwerty keyboard to keep up. I also love the color - red's my favorite color and this is just a sexy looking phone! Plus, it is powerful enough to work from the back aisle of the grocery store where all the metal coolers are. My old one didn't, which was less than convenient!4. The "Young House Love" Blog
If you are in to decorating, this blog is a must read. I just found it last week and have already learned so much from the great advice they give. Plus, the blog's authors are just fun people! Definitely give it a read.

5. SIGG 0.6 L water bottle in "Wheels of Karma"
I was hesitant to get a metal water bottle because I was afraid the water would taste like metal, but it doesn't. I love the design of this one (even the name is great!), and the loop top is super easy to carry. Plus I'm doing something good for the environment by not using paper cups or plastic water bottles over and over.
