We are the (non-digi) products that make you happy?
I love the smell of Windex and couldn't live without my Glad Press-N-Seal.
I know I can't be the only one that gets a little happy when they use ordinary products.

Post-It notes make me almost giddy! I love looking at the post-it note section in the office supply store. :)
I also love the scent of Jergen's lotion (the orginal Cherry-Almond scent). Reminds me of my childhood.

nailpolish.. really. When things are going bad .. I paint my nails everyday. This week we had orange one day, purple another, red another, flourescent pink, baby pink, black, and yesterday they were red again.
Other than that.. um.. my new laundry detergent makes me weird happy. It smells like this goup my dad use to use to clean the grease off of his hands when I was a kid..
oh and lavendar method cleaning spray.. makes me all happy too.

my mp3 player. It is pink and it helps me relax.
I'm a weirdo so a lot of things make me happy. A made bed makes me happy, cleaning the counters with Comet makes me happy. Organizing things makes me happy.

All sorts of little things make me happy! Probably my favorite is riding in the car in spring or fall with the sun of my face and the window down just a little. The sun isn't hot like in summer when it makes you feel like it's melting your skin off. It's just pretty and calming and wonderful.
I'm obsessed wtih my ipod. It goes everywhere I go.
When Jordan wanders down the hall between video games just to kiss me on the forehead.
When Tiger is so tired from having fun all day that she just flops down and starts snoring within 5 seconds.
I could go on, but I won't :p
ETA: Just realized only the ipod is an actual product. So I'll add anything and everything stationary related. New pens, new notepads, totally amazing. I could wander around staples for hours!

never seen that site but yea those are some of the ones. I also like the type you get in those old GAMES magazines.

My favorite puzzle magazine is the penny press or dell variety puzzle book. I love the crypto-families and cryptogramsJessica, ever seen this site?

new writing pens..i'm seriously addicted!
Me too! When I was a kid and my dad gave my mom a nice new pen from his work, I'd say "nice pen!" and mom would say "No Jen, you can't have it" LOL
Products I love:
Portable DVD player (haven't used it in the car yet, but it was great when our TV went kaput)
My Crocs (so comfy, but I wear them as slippers...only wear them outside to get the mail or put out the compost/garbage)
my magnetic hanging pen (http://ameile.manufacturer.globalsources.com/si/6008820367293/pdtl/Promotional-pen/1004748358/Pen.htm) & note pad (great to have easy access but up out of the way on the fridge)

OMG Jennifer! I have the same exact pen (in pink) and I'm totally obsessed with it!! I even did a layout about it once for a challenge... http://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/inspiration/showphoto.php?photo=25580&limit=recent
I give it as gifts to all my girlfriends because its such a brilliant pen! I only wish *I* had thought of it first. :)
Stones :) .
I have various stones everywhere in my home (well, everywhere where my DD can't reach and eat them :) ). Small stones because our home is small. :) When I'm on vacation or trip I bring a stone or two with me. And my family and friends know about it and when they go somewhere, they bring me some too. :)

Starbucks Lattes make me abnormally happy

My stylist ordered mine for me...

I must have a really sensitive nose or something because I can't imagine liking the smell of cleaning products. LOL! I've had to get rid of them and go natural because they make me gag.
Office supplies give me joy. I love pens and papers. Geeks like me love August because of the back-to-school section of Target and all the goodies you can find there. :thumbup:
