Truth be told, you don't always have to spend hundreds of dollars to score great products. Just take it from my fellow PureWow editors, who know a good bargain buy when they see one. I polled several of my colleagues to see what was on their shopping lists this week, and let's just say their picks will have you running to grab your wallet. From chic, comfortable bralette sets for less than $25 to an under-$75 tower fan that will help you fight off those pesky spring allergies, you won't regret making these purchases—we certainly don't!

If in the market for a new bralette set, Candace Davison, VP of editorial content, highly recommends picking up this under-$25 set, which she just purchased herself. "It has a modern-boho style that totally reminds me of Free People, yet two cost just $22. And it's surprisingly comfy!" There are two different color combinations to choose from (black/white and pink/black), and each piece features pretty lace detailing and lining at the cups.

Allergies kicking your butt this season? Well, so are mine, which means we definitely need to pick up this tower fan suggested by Assistant Editor Delia Curtis to help us out. "I have TERRIBLE pollen allergies and am prone to night sweats. I just got this standing fan from Dreo this week and I’m loving it. It keeps my entire room cold. It has a number of different settings that allow you to program it to turn off after a certain number of hours, adjust the speed, turn on oscillate and more. It also has a handy remote so I can conveniently turn it off while still tucked into bed. It’s super easy to put together and doesn’t take up too much room!"

Associate Fashion Commerce Editor Stephanie Meraz has just re-upped her go-to moisture mask. "Now that I've touched back in California, I had to stock up on my Hydraberry Moisture Mask from Clearstem, aka one of the only skincare brands I trust on my combination skin," she tells me. "It’s packed with only the best ingredients (they’re known for having NO pore cloggers, which is huge for this gal who’s struggled with acne and even gone through a round of Accutane) that seriously feel like a moisture bomb on my skin. You can use it like a five-minute mask or even overnight, which is how I like to use it. It always leaves my skin feeling so soft, hydrated and plump."

Davison also just scooped up this Jelly Blox creative kit, which comes with 20 different blocks for kids to experiment with. "Jellyblox is my go-to toddler birthday gift this year. It never disappoints. Imagine squishy building blocks, only some are filled with sand or plastic stars or other trinkets, giving them a fun sensory element. It's also a great last-minute Easter gift, thanks to Prime shipping!" It's also "ouch-free," meaning you don't have to worry about any injuries or mishaps.

Catrina Yohay, executive managing editor, is restocking her fave cleanser. "I'm almost out, so I will be restocking. It's been tricky finding effective exfoliating skincare products that are also pregnancy safe (my current situation). Though this isn't technically an exfoliator, the addition of turmeric leaves my skin feeling totally scrubbed clean—but not stripped dry. I plan on using it long after baby is here!"

SEO Editor Marissa Wu is gearing up for her big summer trip to France with this nifty camera. "Two years ago, I committed to only shooting instant film. I'm stocking up for my big trip to France to see friends and celebrate a 50th birthday. I've been using Instax for a while, and as a serious hobby photographer, I can tell you Polaroid eats dust compared to Fujifilm. The film chemistry is superior, colors are better and less likely to be overly washed out." Additionally, there are five different colors available, giving you some fun options to pick from.

A new shoe for the summer is a must, according to Assistant News and Entertainment Editor Danielle Long. "I just got these kitten heels and they're perfect," she raves. In addition to their style and versatility, these shoes are also quite comfortable to walk in for hours at a time, according to buyers, so I recommend snagging them while they're on sale.

You're absolutely going to need a new water bottle for your Hot Girl summer walks, and this one is Long's newest obsession. "Just picked this up because I have an obnoxious obsession with water bottles! It has a sleek design, and comes in lots of color options." Per the brand, it comes with a FreeSip spout and push-button lid that has a lock attached. Oh, and did I mention it's also BPA-free?
