What We Found in an Amazon Mystery Box: Unknown & More — May 17, 2026

We cracked open a fresh Amazon Mystery Box this afternoon and honestly, it kept us guessing all the way to the bottom. Over 170 items total, with a solid mix of everyday useful stuff and a few things that made us go wait, forty of those?

Forty Forge American Flag Lapel Pins — Yes, Forty

The standout moment in this box was pulling out forty individually packaged Forge American Flag Lapel Pin Proudly Made in USA- Gold Plated Rectangle Bulk (1 Pin) at $7.99 each. Gold-plated, made in the USA, and arriving right as summer kicks off here in Hot Springs. These are going fast — patriotic season is not a drill.

Beyond the pins, we pulled four Ergonomic Mouse Pad with Wrist Rest units at $15.99 each — the kind of practical grab that flies off shelves without much fanfare. If you're staring at a desk all day, you already know. We also found one Clip-In Hair Extensions 16" - Light Golden Auburn sealed and retail-ready at $14.99, which felt like a nice little bonus tucked in the mix.

Three jars of Shawarma Seasoning & Rub 4.2oz from Chile Revival made an appearance too — $8.99 each and genuinely interesting. Not your average spice rack find.

On the smaller end, we counted fourteen Bible Reading Stickers at $4.00 each, six Sticker Pack sets from No Thorns Media, and eight Mini Clip Board units at $2.00 apiece. Small price points, big usefulness. Plus dozens more bin-labeled items are already heading to our store bins.

Not the flashiest box we've ever opened — but a genuinely useful one. Everything's priced and on the floor now at Deals Down Under in Hot Springs.
