Aussies are absolutely loving a handy $12 Kmart product that they are touting as perfect for overall travel, camping and caravanning, and for anyone with small kids who need constant entertaining. And the product has become so popular it's quickly selling out of stores across the country, so as the old Kmart saying goes: run, don't walk.

The $12 two-pack clear packing cubes have been called the "best storage" solutions by one happy shopper, who said they "ran" to their local Kmart to snap up the cubes for things like toys and craft pieces.

Aussie mum Corrine Mayfair tells Yahoo Lifestyle that the affordable cubes are extremely versatile, saying that she had found so many uses for them.

"They’re not just a travel essential – they’re a mini storage miracle," she says. "Perfect for organising small toys, game pieces, or anything that tends to disappear into the clutter, they act like a tidy treasure chest for all your tiny items."

She enthuses that they are "ideal for snacks, tech accessories, craft supplies, hair accessories, and even first aid kits" calling them a "must-have for any organised household."

"This is the best storage solution for all those small toys and craft pieces (and I can think of about 30 more things). Thank me later," she says in the video.

Many people flocked to TikTok to label the storage cubes as "smart" and a "great idea" with some also brainstorming other uses for the handy cubes.

"This would be amazing for puzzles," another suggested, while someone else lamented they had already sold out at their local store. "Sold out in my store, whyyyyyyyyy what did I do to deserve this!" they said.

"Looks great except I’d need 15000 of them," one person joked, with another saying, "I just ordered but I feel I need 60."
