Despite our collective urges to be outdoors making the most of the warmer weather, we can all use a little time indoors to relax and unplug after a long week of activities. With summer on the horizon, there’s plenty of talk around making the most of your favorite summer pastimes, but who is looking out for the part-time couch potato who just needs a quick break from the sizzling heat?
With a big push in the outdoor marketing department underway, retailers have hit the ground running this season with all sorts of useful gadgets , snacks and accessories that can aid in a successful day spent in the sun. And while Target is no exception from these hot seasonal trends, the popular retail supercenter still makes it a point not to leave anyone out of the seasonal equation.

Netflix and chill will never be the same once you’ve introduced Target's new Sofa Buddy to the scene.

Found in Target's “Dollar Spot” section, this soft and handy accessory retails for only $5 and can be found in blue, green and pink colorways. Each Sofa Buddy has two built-in cup holders, one for mugs with handles and another for regular cups or similarly-shaped snacks such as Pringles.
Say goodbye to the days of sitting up and reaching over to the coffee table for a sip of your favorite beverage . Now, you can have it resting safely by your side while you enjoy the comfort of a fully-horizontal position. Is it necessary? Maybe not. But reviews online have been mostly positive in terms of the possibilities made with such a handy little invention.
“It’s only useful if a wine glass fits in there,” one commenter joked. Another curious viewer chimed in as well, asking the important questions, “But does it fit a Stanley?”
Whichever use you find fit, $5 is not a bad price point for something that may or may not be the best purchase of the summer, depending on your preferred couch-time exploits. The only way to know the genius of such an invention is to grab one for yourself and put it to the test. We’ve got a feeling you’ll be in for a pleasant surprise.
