Today I'll let you take a peek inside my shopping cart and show you what I've bought online in the last few months. I usually do a bit of research to find the best deals or the best quality, so maybe this will save you some time. Don't worry, if it was underwear that I purchased, I won't include a link for that here, because you probably can figure out yourself where to buy that. (Although I am considering buying the Coobie Bra that I read about recently, they're cuter than I expected.)
What I've bought online recently:
- Dandy Blend
for that late-afternoon hot bevie craving when I've already had enough coffee that day. I really like this stuff, as long as it's not immediately following a cup of real coffee. Read more about coffee alternatives and what others like.
- Coconut oil because Kent eats it by the spoonful for its health benefits, and I also use it in my popcorn recipe. (I went in with a few others so we could get free shipping, so be sure to ask your friends if they need some, too – where to buy coconut oil.)
- Iodine supplements, because pretty much all of us are deficient and it supports adrenal health. I know, I should do a post on this someday.
- Essential Oils, which I'm just learning more about. Read the comments with info on all the uses for them in this post: Not hokey after all. (Where to buy essential oils.)
- I love these organic, raw cultured vegetables because they can be stored in the freezer to pull out for a super fast side dish all year long, and they're full of beneficial probiotics for your immune system, plus they're delicious. (Where to buy cultured vegetables. Or you can get probiotic supplements here.)
- Fluoride-free Toothpaste. Read more about why we avoid fluoride in this post: Look what I did to our son or this post for specific fluoride info.
- An Earthing half-sheet for our bed — I can't wait for this to come! (where to buy Earthing products, remember to wait for the page to load all the way.) I just finished the Earthing book
and I'm amazed at the stories of those who have had their chronic pain or insomnia disappear after sleeping on these! I'll let you know more about all of this soon.
- Colloidal Silver
for a natural antibiotic. Read more about how we use Colloidal Silver.
- I detest cleaning, but was surprised at how much I liked these products. And they can just be thrown into the wash after you're done!
- I ordered this for myself for Christmas: a radiation-redirecting cell phone cover. As I said before, who knows if they really work, but from everything I’ve heard and read, they’re a least a pretty good bet.
- ConcenTrace Mineral Drops
to replace the minerals that our Reverse Osmosis system strips from our water as it filters out all the junk like chlorine, fluoride, and other toxins. Read more about which water filtering systems are best.

What great deals have you found online recently? Not just money-saving deals, but good-quality deals, too. Please email them to me: [email protected], or comment below, and I'll share them in a future post! 🙂

Kelly, I was wondering how extensively you researched the phone cover. I read that it is for EMR’s. What about EMF’s? This stuff is still confusing to me. I was thinking of ordering a case for my husbands phone and my iPad. If you have any clarification I would appreciate it. Thanks a bunch!
KitchenKop says
It is EMR’s, thanks for the catch.
I’ve been reading up on the Earthing pads and reducing EMF exposure, so I mixed them up!
Kelly
KitchenKop says
OK, I thought I had written it wrong in the post, but just went to fix it and I realized you were just asking about EMF’s. I will be posting on this soon! I’m confused to and have a call in to ask someone who knows more about all this…

Tessa says
Looking forward to your post! I ordered the book Zapped so that I can begin educating myself on the subject. I find that I have reactions to my iPad and cell phone. I get a tightening in my chest and rapid heatbeat with the iPad and almost immediately get a weird kind of hot buzzing headachy feeling when using my cell phone. I have looked at a few products to help this, including crystals, which I want to learn more about.
Nicole says
Interesting!! Are you saying that if you put minerals into your kefir the grains will multiply more?? Kelly, are you saying you can also use an egg-shell to do the same thing?? Cool!
Re; the earthing sheet, I have low progesterone, do you think it could help something like that??? I guess I probably need to read the book……….it will go on my wish-list!!
Thanks for all the great info!!
Kelly the Kitchen Kop says
Yes on the minerals & the grains love unrefined sugar best, too!

I know that this does not go along with this post, but since I have been following you and this past year made my real food transformation–I will share. Just finished one of those on line surveys from my medical insurance provider about my health and of course they give me $50. So you can probably guess what they indicated was my biggest health risk—you’re right, my “unhealthy eating” will most likely result in stroke, colon health issure and diabetes, high blood pressure. Just had to laugh because I didn’t report eating any lowfat dairy products and maybe only 1 grain a day. Sometimes they call and give “counseling” about my health risks. Can’t wait to tell them about “real” food.
Soli @ I Believe in Butter says
I got my first Coobie the other day, and surprise, they sent me a second for free! (For real too, it was on the invoice and there was a discount for the cost of the second bra.) I mentioned it on the IBIB facebook page and wow did that get people commenting,. They are really that comfy, and I wear a 38D. Cannot WAIT to fly on Wednesday and not have to deal with wearing underwire for over 12 hours.
Phoenix says
My mom and I love our coobie bras b/c they are so comfortable. The degree to which you like it I think will depend on how much support you are looking for. I’m a 34 B/C and my mom is a 34 A/B, so it provides enough support for us and I think it still looks good under certain clothes. I wouldn’t wear it under a T shirt though b/c it doesn’t provide me with as much flattering lift as an underwire T-shirt bra, but for many other clothes, the tradeoff in lift for comfort is worth it for me.
If you google “coobie bra coupon”, there are a lot of valid coupon codes for buy one get one free. That’s what I used successfully multiple times.
lara says
oh kelly I am so sorry but I still cant see the earthing information in the link-it just directs me to essential oils. What am I doing wrong as I would love to read this information
Thanks
Lara
KitchenKop says
Lara,
I’ll bet you have an ad blocker on so only some links are showing up on that page. Can you check that?
Thanks!

Peggy says
I’ve been using ConcenTrace drops in my kefir because it makes the grains multiply! Thanks for the warning, Anisa, I would have given up for sure!
Anisa says
That is the very reason that thought I would comment. I wouldn’t want anyone to miss out on what I am now experiencing after three weeks (I feel so great!) just because they may experience some rough spots in the beginning. When I started thinking about it, it makes sense. Earthing increases blood flow. Get more blood into an inflammed area and you have pain and ache until the body is able to resolve the root cause, which it is doing. This can be hard to keep in mind when you ache for several days and start thinking that Earthing was the worst idea ever.
Amy says
Anisa, are you using the plug-in-wall option with the grounding sheet, or do you have it connected right to the ground outside?
KitchenKop says
HI Peggy, that’s a good idea to add the drops to kefir! I’ve been dropping an egg shell in there…I wonder which is better, any idea?
Kelly
Peggy says
No clue which is better!
Anisa says
Hi Kelly,
I just started with the Earthing half sheet and floor mat three weeks ago. I got it to assist with healing some hormonal problems as well as make my frequent travel for work much easier (no jetlag!). Earthing really is all that it is said to be, however, if I was not used to the concept of a “healing crisis” I may have given it at negative review. Everyone I have gotten to try it and myself included commented that whatever inflammation they had in their body flared up for a brief time before subsiding and really feeling better. I kind of think of it like when you bruise yourself–it swells before it gets better. After three weeks now of feeling slightly achy in different parts, I feel amazing. I also chart my cycle and it sure is looking better.
I just thought I would chime in here in case anyone else is getting excited about Earthing and then having a rough time after starting. Most of the testimonials in the Earthing book really don’t mention this aspect of healing. Maybe this won’t happen for everyone but it has for the several friends I have had try it out for just a short time. So my advice is don’t give up! It is so worth it. I am feeling more amazing every day and my sleep is better than I have ever had in my life.
KitchenKop says
I’m so glad you warned me of this. It also sounds a bit like taking a probiotic, sometimes you have a “die off” reaction and feel like crap at first, but it’s your body’s way of clearing out. Maybe it’s sort of like that…?
Anisa says
Exactly like that.
Peggy S. says
My doctor is a D.O. and believes in drugs as a last resort. She believes that iodine is best absorbed by the body as a transdermal application (like magnesium oil). I apply a 3×3″ patch of iodine tincture to my inner thigh or belly every 10 days to make sure my iodine levels are ok. If the patch disappears within 24 hours or less, apply the patch daily until it stays on for at least 48 hours.
Dorsey says
You will love your sleep sheet. I also get Dr. Bernard Friedlander’s Collagen as well as the MCT oil which is awesome to add to salads, smoothies, etc for coconut oil benefits with a great big PLUS.
I also get my grass fed meat from Wellness Meats. I can buy some at the local store but the selection is very limited and I have found the quality of the Wellness meats to far exceed those in the local store. I also can get more than beef.
Another thing I get online is raw milk cheese from http://www.farmsteadfresh.com. It is so yummy and my husband who is sensitive to cheeses, can eat them with no real problems.
I am sure I could go on with more but I think this will give you an idea that I too do a great deal of shopping online.

hi kelly
i cant seem to find the link to the earthing products on your resources page.
I love your reviews thank you

Hi Lara,
If you click the link and wait for it to load, it’s the 3rd paragraph down. 🙂

Love your reviews, Kelly. As a long time reader, you have helped me make some choices. I wonder if you still like your Nutrimill? I am trying to help a friend use her money wisely and Nutrimill seems to be good quality at a reasonable price. Thanks. 🙂
Peggy S. says
I had a Nutrimill about 6 years ago. I didn’t like it for several reasons: It milled my grains at too hot a temperature, it was very loud, and it was not sturdy enough to handle everything (beans, corn) that I wanted to mill. Hopefully they’ve improved their product. I reccomend the Mill-Rite electric mill made by Retsel. It has a heavy duty motor, comes with a great guarantee, comes with a stainless steel and stone burr, mills with low heat, and you can mill just about anything. If electricity is still around in 100 years, my Retsel mill will still be working.
KitchenKop says
I actually do still love my Nutrimill. It’s fast and easy and I knew from the get-go that it wasn’t for beans or corn, I only wanted it for grains. I like that I can grind a lot at once and then freeze it. Here’s more on all that: https://kellythekitchenkop.com/2008/11/nutrimill-for-really-fresh-homemade.html
