Best of 2025
2025Where has the year gone?? As corporate girlies at heart—both of us having spent 10–15 years working for a large retailer—it’s hard not to use the end of the year to sit down and reflect on what’s transpired. This has been a big year of growth and change for our business. Behind the scenes, things are constantly evolving, and much of the day-to-day work is made up of tasks that, as consumers, you would never see.
We’re thrilled with the momentum in areas of the business we’ve chosen to lean into, and we’ve made conscious decisions to pause efforts where we aren’t seeing a return on our investment. We are forever grateful for your support of Everyday Best Buy, this space is crowded, and we hope that through all the noise, we remain a helpful destination that takes a little of the mental load off your plate. Below we have recapped what has resonated the most with you throughout the year across different retailers and content.
Here’s to an exciting 2026!
Amazon Top 10 Sellers
Here are our top 10 Amazon sellers of 2025! What makes this list extra fun is that most of these were new discoveries for us this year and products you immediately loved right along with us. It’s clear from this list that many of us are starting to make cleaner swaps, especially when it comes to products for our kids. The non-toxic world can feel overwhelming, but I truly believe in making small, intentional changes over time, as things naturally need to be refreshed or restocked in our homes.
SHOP
If you have small kids, add these to your cart. Perfect for boo-boo’s or just playing with (my daughter loved them) and makes any injury a little less scary when the ice packs are so cute. They come in different characters/animals and in a 3 pack!
SHOP
Parents, you need this! My kids treat toothpaste like it’s whipped cream—literally globs everywhere. This automatic toothpaste dispenser fixes the mess with one simple push, no batteries needed. The perfect amount, every time!
SHOP
I searched high and low for a good stainless steel lunchbox for kids. So many I got were way too big, tricky for kids to be able to open or close on their own or weren't leak proof. But this one checks all the right boxes!
SHOP
These snack cups are a great stainless steel and leak proof option if you need to send a snack with your kids to school each day! They come in a set of 3, each 1 cup in size.
SHOP
I don’t think you can ever have too many goggles, and my son really loves this style! They are east to put on and adjust and they don’t pull their hair. They come in a ton of cute colors too!
SHOP
Take bath time to the next level! Your kiddos are going to be obsessed with this ice cream bath machine. It is super easy to use, just add bubble bath or bath soap + water and let the fun begin!
SHOP
I have been getting requests for non plastic cutting boards and recently purchased this one and so far so good! It is non-slip, and one side has a juice groove. This wooden option is nice because it is not porous and is dishwasher safe. I got the medium size which is perfect for everyday use but they do have 3 sizes available!
SHOP
This card holder is genius for kids! It is often hard for them to hold up all their cards with their smaller hands so this makes it easier for them.
SHOP
This box is perfect for storing things like crafts or drawing supplies. It has a removable tray on top that can fit anything from crayons and markers to pom poms or pipe cleaners. Underneath the tray is room for craft paper or coloring books. So easy to store and when needed just bring out your coloring or craft box!
Target Top 10 Sellers
Target continues to be a go to for so many of us, offering trendy finds at affordable prices across every category. While many of their top sellers are seasonal items that come in and out of stock, we’ve rounded up the top 10 Target finds that are available most of the year!
SHOP
Target has their own take on the Icon glasses and the quality is just as good as the originals! They come in and out of stock, so if you see them, grab them! They bring in holiday themes throughout the year that make for such cute gifts too!

SHOP
Kids go nuts over this bubble foaming cafe bath toy! Your little barista will love making drinks as they splash and play in the tub.
#paidlink
SHOP
This chalk paint set has been such a hit since it launched last year that it keeps going in and out of stock! If you get your hands on a set, it is such a fun outdoor craft activity for kids. The chalk is in powder form and you mix it with water, so it is fun for kids to create their own vibrant colors and the colors show up really well!
SHOP
I own and love my Dagne Dover diaper bag, but Karlie recently bought this Cloud Island one from Target and it is so similar! They both are neoprene fabrication and this is a great look for less with a price that can’t be beat. A lot of great storage and compartments. I would order the lighter color so you can see inside of it easily.

SHOP
Target brought back some of my favorite boys’ shorts! I love that they hit above the knee, they are the perfect cute length and are a really nice material. The XS fits like a 4/5T. Available in 4 colors!
#paidlink
SHOP
I love these retro crew socks for boys! They are on trend and my son is obsessed with them. They come in a 4-pack and are also available in neutrals.

SHOP
These bath hand towels from Target have such a great waffle texture to them and they are extra large in size. They come in several beautiful neutral colors.
#paidlink
SHOP
These Auden pajamas are the most comfortable sets at such a great price point, my favorite option for maternity and postpartum when you need several sets on hand. They come in different fabrics and colors every season.

SHOP
The best summer sandals for toddlers, available in tons of colors, sizes 5-12 for only $10! I think they run big, size down.

Shop My Top 10 Sellers
Shop My has seen the biggest growth for us this year after transitioning away from LTK last year. It’s been an incredible platform for both creators and consumers, it’s easy to use, simple to browse, and great for discovering new products. As creators, we feel lucky to be introduced to so many new brands and to test products (and even share many through giveaways with you). Here are the top 10 products purchased through ShopMy this year!
SHOP
I own and love this jacket so much! It is the perfect weight, length and fit for cooler temps. It runs TTS, but look at sizing because I got a size small, which is a 6-8!
SHOP
This is literally one of my favorite’s women’s tees out there. I love the ribbed fabric, the thicker neckline detail, and the assortment of solid colors and stripes is chefs kiss. I size up in this style because I think it runs a little small/tight!
SHOP
I found these $50 jeans and I am obsessed. They are stretchy, but hold you in in all the right places. They run TTS and come in 3 different lengths too, I own the 28 inch length for a slightly cropped fit (I am 5’ 8” for reference).
SHOP
My sister bought these for our family reunion this summer for all of the kids and they were such a hit! If you have an upcoming trip or just want to matching hats for littles these are adorable. There are so many color and text options to choose from!
SHOP
We are obsessed with the Barely Zero collection from Neiwai! They are made of the softest, seamless material and are meant to fit so many different body types! They have become our everyday bra because of the comfort and support! The fixed cups provide a soft and natural shape and are sewn in place so they never shift or get misshaped. I love the Barely Zero Wavy style and Karlie loves the Barely Zero Classic style.

SHOP
I love J.Crew Factory's slim cords! They fit true to size and are so cute starting in sizes 2 for toddlers through 16! J.Crew Factory always has great dress clothes for boys and is where I go to first when I need something.
SHOP
Who knew we could all have such a collective love for something like a towel, but if you haven't jumped on the Geometry Towel train you are missing out on the best kitchen towels. They are huge, absorb water so well and come in tons of fun prints. Anyone I have gifted them to is hooked and understands the hype! They also make the best universal gift because they are appropriate to gift for almost any occasion and you can never have enough.

This Lands’ End tote bag is amazing! Durable, versatile and so affordable - it is the perfect bag for your kids when going to the beach/pool or to pack up their stuff when going to someone’s house. It can be personalized too, so I suggest buying one for each kid or giving it as a baby shower gift. I also had a friend who just bought the smaller size for her dog- such a good idea! There are 4 internal pockets, plus an external one to keep you organized. It comes in 4 sizes and a handful of colors for only $30-$50 per bag + monogram for an extra $8.
I suggest buying size large with regular length handles and a zip top for kids!
SHOP
I love this visual calendar for kids. It helps them understand days of the week and look forward to activities that are to come. Every Sunday evening my son and I sit down and fill it out together, it is one of his favorite parts of the week. I would recommend buying the “premade” kit so you don’t have to assemble all the pieces and velcro on your own. If you don’t buy the premade kit, this pocket organizer is very helpful for storing all the pieces.

SHOP
The best shorts for guys, while they can be worn as athletic shorts they also can be dressed up a bit. They come in several colors and length options, I prefer the 7.5" inseam. They run TTS
Top 10 Most Viral Reels
Reels have become a big part of our business this year. As social platforms continue to change, our strategies naturally evolve too, but it’s just as important for us to stay true to who we are. There are always trends circulating that don’t quite feel authentic to our style (think overly specific “what to buy as a 38 year old mom of 3” or “what I am texting my besties to shop"‘, and while they may work for others, they’re not how we like to create or consume content. We’re staying focused on sharing recommendations in a way that feels natural, honest, and aligned with what we’d actually want to see, not just to please an algorithm.

Most Popular Substacks
We launched our Substack in May, and it’s quickly become one of our favorite ways to connect with you. We can share traditional newsletter-style content, but also drop casual, personal updates throughout the year, kind of like a behind-the-scenes peek into our world. If you haven’t tried Substack yet, now’s the time, it’s only going to keep growing as a social platform, and we love having you along for the ride!

10 Most Popular Guides
We published fewer guides this year, which was a strategic shift as we expanded other ways to share content, like reels and Substack. That said, our guides remain some of the most shopped and engaged with content we create. Our birthday guides, covering newborns through age 7, are updated throughout the year as we discover new products, and they continue to be the most searched-for content on our site, as you can see from what made our top guides list this year!

These are the cutest silicone tumblers for kids! The best part is they are 100% leakproof and they come in a ton of fun colors.
