Hop over to Amazon where you can snag this Coghlan’s Backpacker’s Salt & Pepper Shaker for only $1.50 (regularly $2.42)!

These mini salt and pepper shakers have so many uses! They are perfect for tossing in your lunch bag, throwing in a backpack for camping, or taking along on your next picnic. You can also toss them in your purse when traveling, and they won’t spill! You don’t have to fill them with just salt or pepper, either. You can choose your favorite seasonings to take along!

The last time I was at my hairdresser, their coffee station didn’t have any sugar substitutes. Problem solved! I’ll fill this with Splenda and toss it in my purse for next time. 🤫 I just ordered two! – Stacy, Hip Sidekick

Check out these fantastic reviews…

I wanted a purse-size salt and pepper shaker that wouldn’t spill. This works perfectly and now I can bring Himalayan salt on the road. Thinking of ordering another one for other seasonings since we travel for work and restaurants/mini markets don’t offer certain seasonings. It’s conveniently small and shakes medium to coarser granules just fine. And you can always open the other filling side for a pinch.


I bought one of these years ago from a local drugstore and used it in my lunch sack at work. Then sadly I lost it and never could find it again. I was so pleased to find the exact shaker on Amazon and I bought it. Shipping was fast and the product is great. Now that I’m retired I keep it in my purse to use whenever I’m out somewhere and food is involved. Great value for the price and great product overall-a definite 5 Stars!

    I didn’t need these but went ahead and got 2. Why? Because their only $1.50 and they are so darn cute. I guess my wife and I can throw them in our lunch bags. Thanks.

    So cute! I got a couple for my husband and I to take to the office. I even have one in my purse. Lately, when I go to a restaurant, I have to ask for salt and pepper and they give it to me in those little paper packets. Thank you for posting about this!

    My mom had a set just like this back in the 70s. She used it to hold aspirin in her purse. When I saw this post, it was a blast from the past…..I had completely forgotten about them.
