17 Things UNDER $8 that ALL basic girls will love!

Last updated: March 29, 2024

AliExpress is a great source for pretty much anything that is Made in China, which is where most of the mass market products are produced nowadays. But it can be a little confusing and hard to navigate, and some deals only seem good on the surface but what you get might be different from what you expected.

So to make things easier, we picked the absolute bestselling products with tons of user feedback and from trusted vendors. This list is packed with the best deals for products with prices much lower than at your local stores. You don’t have to wait for the sale season – we found items that are always priced as a great bargain!

No impulse buys. This is a “Useful Things Only” zone.

‘BASIC GIRL’ PRODUCT FINDS

LETTER LIGHTS

Price: $4

These aesthetic lights run off of 2xAAA batteries, and they are 16 cm (a little larger than 6″) tall. We’ve seen them on Amazon for as high as $22 – but here they can be bought for much cheaper than that.
