Meet Recommender:
Wyatt
Hey, I’m Wyatt. I am an almost lifelong Coffeyville local, professional hype man for my hometown, and the guy most likely to turn a random conversation into a sales pitch for whatever is my favorite thing at the moment. As the Director of Tourism for Visit Coffeyville, I spend most of my days promoting local events, dreaming up big ideas for Coffeyville, traveling across the state for meetings and conferences, and convincing people that Southeast Kansas deserves a spot on their bucket list.
When I’m not working I stay busy volunteering around the community, taking real estate photos, or reading either a thriller or fantasy book. I’m a big fan of kitchen gadgets, Christmas décor that may or may not be excessive, and a good road trip…and maybe the road trip essentials a bit more.
I firmly believe there’s no place like home and will probably tell you exactly why if you give me more than five minutes.

Hanke 20 Inch Carry-On Luggage
I LOVE THIS LUGGAGE!!! I bought this while sitting in the Denver airport after lugging around a heavy duffel bag through TSA. This luggage is unique in the fact that it opens like a trunk, unlike traditional luggage. This makes it so much easier to “Tetris-style” pack and fit a TON inside. I took this bad boy on a week-long Disney trip, fit 7+ outfits and more, and it worked like a dream. WORTH EVERY PENNY!

Men's Real Leather Ratchet Dress Casual Belt
Fellas, I don’t even need to explain why this is awesome. Traditional belts stretch, the holes are in the wrong spots, or wear out. This belt fixes all those issues and keeps you looking good while doing it. Ladies, do yourself a favor this Father’s Day season and hook the man in your life up with this belt.

CRZ YOGA Men's Linerless Workout Shorts 7''
Fun fact about myself: If it’s not a requirement to be in pants, I will 1000% be in athletic shorts. I stumbled onto these Lululemon dupe shorts a couple summers back and my life changed forever. They are the most comfortable, stretchy, quick-dry shorts I’ve worn. Great for working out, but also for everyday wear. Tons of colors too, which is a plus for me.

DECYOOL 2 Pack Paper Wasp Nest Decoy
I’m going to expose myself here... I am a full-grown man and I am petrified of wasps. There, I said it. I have had an issue with those sorry suckers building nests near my front door and back patio door in the summers, that was until I found these decoys. They are easy to install, and they trick the wasps into thinking another colony has settled in, so they leave. Jokes on them!
-

HOTOR Car Trash Can
I travel a lot for work, which means I am in my car A LOT. These little car trash cans are so handy and keep my car free of straw wrappers and other trash while driving. They fit inside most cupholders, and I like to keep mine in the door so they aren’t super noticeable but still easily accessible while tearing up the highway.
-

Pill Organizer with Medicine Labels
I do not go anywhere without medicine. I tend to get a lot of headaches from staring at a computer monitor all day, or I am out of town and need something to ease an upset stomach. This travel pill organizer is PERFECT for that, and it comes with stickers that act as labels for about a million different medicine types. Now I have whatever I may need on me, and I don’t have to guess what’s what.
-

Fullstar XL Vegetable Chopper & Mandoline Slicer
So here’s the thing. I saw this veggie chopper online and thought... why is this so special? I have a knife that can do the same thing. Then I caved and bought this and thought... OHHH THAT’S WHY. It can cut through anything like butter, it comes with 6 different blade settings, and has a convenient tray that all your chopped items go into for easy use and cleanup. Just get it.
-

Coffeyville Coffee (Death Alley & Wayward Son)
I AM A COFFEE ADDICT. I drink several coffees throughout the day... mostly iced... and that is all thanks to Coffeyville Coffee. I have two blends that I love and recommend: Death Alley and Wayward Son. Both are delicious and I love them for different reasons. Death Alley, because of the Dalton Gang, duh. It’s also a dark roast, so perfect for espresso drinks. Wayward Son, aside from being the perfect cup of coffee, has proceeds that help restore the iconic Midland Theater in Coffeyville... it’s a win-win.
-

Espresso Accessories Kit
Now that I’ve convinced you on what coffee to get, now you need the tools. I use this espresso tool kit each morning for my iced lattes, and they look great on the counter but also work great. Coffee at my house has never been better!
-

Fanttik C8 Nano Easyswap Cordless Electric Scissors
I go through a lot of boxes at the office, stocking our gift shop and ordering print marketing materials. These electric scissors take cutting boxes from an afternoon chore to a 5-minute task. I can’t imagine my life without them now.
-

UIXJODO Gel Pens
If you know me personally, you know that I can’t shut up about these pens. I have ordered probably 10 packs because I send one with just about every person I tell about them... which is then followed with a “here is the link” text message later in the day after they try them and fall in love as well. Fine point pens just have a special place in my heart.
-

Santa Cookie Elf Candy Snowman Christmas Edition Holiday Card Game
I love Christmas and I love card games, so this was basically made for me. This is the holiday edition of the classic “Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza” and I play this every year. High energy, fast paced, and it will have you laughing (or in a family feud) this Christmas.
-

GHome Smart Plug Mini
I have had these guys for YEARS. They connect to your phone or Alexa/Google Home and control your plug-in items. For example, I use mine for my Christmas trees each year. They allow me to turn them on and off from my phone and set timers for when they should turn on or off. You can thank me later for this one.
-

BAGSMART Compression Packing Cubes
I tend to be an overpacker (you can never have too many pairs of underwear and socks on a trip), so these compression packing cubes are a game changer. They also fit great with the luggage I mentioned earlier.
-

Crock-Pot Portable Electric Lunch Box
Mini travel Crock-Pot I can use at work... fine, take my money! This thing is perfect year-round, but really comes in handy during the cooler months.
-

Twist-on Holiday Universal Tree Topper
Christmas tree toppers are not created equally, so this little gadget solves that problem. I have used this on trees at my house and when decorating around town for the holidays. It has several different configurations, so it’s perfect for any type of topper.
-

Amazon Kindle
I became a Kindle user a couple years ago thanks to a family member. I didn’t think this small device could make such an impact on my reading, but it has. I knock out books so fast on a Kindle, and it’s small and lightweight... easy to use on a trip, by the pool, or my favorite reading in bed.
-

Migraine Relief Cap
I am someone who tends to get a ton of headaches and migraines. This relief cap has been a lifesaver more times than I can count. You can stick it in the freezer to cool it down or pop it in the microwave to heat it up. Cannot go without this one!
