October was a big month for shopping—not only has the holiday season begun (as early as it feels), but Amazon Prime Day was also vying for your hard-earned dollars. The theme of the month seemed to be focused on making life a little cozier, from Drew Barrymore-approved area rugs and an especially ergonomic ice box (don’t knock it ‘til you try it) to a couple of delicious-sounding advent calendars. In short, there’s a lot to love about last month’s top buys, so let’s dig into them.

Amazon Prime Day Faves
One of the year’s major shopping events also went down in October, and you took the opportunity to invest in little luxuries that settle into being home in the cooler, darker months ahead.
