Top 5 Gifts Under $200
1) Water Purification Pod
Use this little water enhancer to purify tap water in a bottle for on-the-go drinking or in a pitcher for the whole family. GoPure’s porous ceramic absorbs impurities and releases trace minerals to balance the pH levels. And it uses an all-natural, fine-grain rock (Diatomite) to filter out lead, arsenic, chlorine, and other contaminants you don’t want in your system. It’s a portable solution for potable water.
2) Multi-Use Food Tongs
This one-handed tool allows you to whisk, grab, and serve with ease. Turn over any shape of food, remove it from boiling water or hot oil, or plate your final dish. Folds flat and locks for easy storage.
3) Soco Sustainable Everyday Bag
The Soco Sustainable Everyday Bag is the perfect, effortless everyday bag. Inspired by simplicity and sustainability, this long-lasting, super sturdy bag is made from a durable material that feels like paper but is fully washable and reusable. Made in the USA.
4) 15" Trowel with Soil-Saving Grate
This trowel is designed with a built-in soil grater so you can aerate and reuse nutrient topsoil. The blade is made with power coated, commercial grade tempered steel, which makes it rust-resistant and durable for a lifetime of use. The lightweight, reinforced steel handle is paired with an ergonomic rubber grip to provide maximum comfort while protecting your hands.
5) 3 Color Thermometer
This patented steak thermometer uses three LED lights to tell you when the steak is medium rare, medium, and medium well. No more guessing and no more raw or overdone meat. Get your steak exactly right, every time with SteakChamp. (Works on grill, oven, or stovetop and with duck, fish, and game, too.)
