I ordered from Martie, a discount specialty food site that has tons of cheap and fun snacks

2 weeks ago | businessinsider.com | Sally Kaplan |Lily Alig

The advertisement that got me to click on Martie's website said, "It's like shopping the snack aisle at Marshalls!" Martie sells fun and interesting specialty foods (plus a few beauty and home products) at a major discount. As someone who can frequently be spotted in the snack aisle of my local HomeGoods, this ad was highly targeted and extremely effective. I spent about 20 minutes adding random snacks, acai smoothie boosters, teas, and more to my cart.

I slept in a 'human dog bed' and it was as absurd and wonderful as it sounds

1 month ago | businessinsider.com | Lily Alig |Lauren Savoie

When you buy through our links, Business Insider may earn an affiliate commission. Learn moreWhen I stumbled across an advertisement for a human-sized dog bed, I couldn't believe how genius it sounded. The Plufl has the best features of a dog bed reimagined for human comfort: supportive sides, a thick cushioned base, and a washable cover. The result is something like a combination of a giant bean bag chair, a memory foam mattress, and a Sherpa blanket. Is this absurd? Yes. Has it transformed my life?

Learn more If you live in a shared space, have a large household, or host gatherings, then you need a versatile coffee maker that can brew in bulk. Dual coffee makers give you the most options because they combine pod and drip coffee makers, or single-serves and large carafes, in one machine.

Learn more Making espresso is an art, but we don't all have the time to grind coffee beans, dose and tamp the grounds, pull the shot, and clean everything up before starting our day. An automatic espresso machine saves you time and effort, but you lose the ability to fine-tune your drink. That's what makes the Terra-Kaffe TK-02 so special amongst the best espresso machines we've tested.

Learn more Finding the best chocolates is a tough job, so the Business Insider Reviews team entrusted the task to a professional chocolatier.
