Another perk? If you're not already signed up for Prime, you can actually try it out for free right now with a 30-day trial. You don't even have to be an Olympic-level shopper like me to put it to good use, since Amazon Prime comes with all kinds of amazing perks, like access to Prime Originals, free Kindle books, and so much more.

Ready to get your hands on some of the strangest, most popular stuff that people are buying through Amazon Prime now? Here's all the really funky stuff that could be changing your life in just a couple days if you use the service.
