As a consumer myself, I can't help but marvel at how online shopping has changed the face of retail, and the convenience it has provided to our life. Everyone is simply a few taps and clicks away from purchasing anything they might need or want.

For most of us, we're probably done with purchases that make life at home much more pleasant, such as ergonomic tables and chairs, kitchen appliances or even home workout equipment.

Now, consider these inexpensive and random items to further enhance your home life!
