We found 11 wacky hidden gems on HSN — and now we can't live without them
Weird and wonderful. Cute and quirky. The internet loves a viral product! But even before the Internet, HSN was cranking out wacky products that used to catch on by word of mouth instead of a re-tweet — and we're happy to say HSN has not lost its touch in the age of the internet.
HSN is now a bonafide online superstore of wonder. There are plenty of brand-name home and fashion finds, but those quirky game changers still pop up for a belly laugh or to solve what you thought was an impossible problem.
From a keychain that doubles as a personal bodyguard, to an adorable doggie backpack that doubles as a harness for a more stylish walking outfit, we rounded up 11 HSN products that will make various life tasks life more convenient...or just bring a smile to your face. They start at just $12, but you can pay in interest-free installments with "Flex Pays" to make it easier on your wallet.
