3.
The squatty potty (or its knockoff). Truly changed my life. -
4.
If you have gone totally bankrupt and those are your last $100, a gym membership. Gives you a couple of months of access to a locker and a shower for you to find a job in the meanwhile. -
5.
Sunrise alarm clock. So much more relaxing to wake up to a slowly increasing light than jarring noises. (For those who don’t need rage inducing noises to even move a muscle.) -
6.
Massage gun. My girlfriend is a massage therapist and has one. They’re pretty incredible. Hilariously, her most common use for it is clearing her sinuses. It works like a charm. -
7.
A heated blanket. Saves you so much money in the winter and makes you more comfortable. Life changing, because who can afford to heat their house all day every day through winter? Or, a heated mattress pad for your bed. Are you young? Saves you a shitton on apartment heat bills at night. Sleep soundly. Older? You will wake up in the morning without pain in your shoulders or hips. Totally worth it. -
8.
10 foot phone charger cord. -
9.
A nice pillow. Will help your neck and back so much. -
10.
Bidet attachment. You’ll never want to poop without one. -
11.
A decent first aid kit. I take one with me wherever I go in the car. You can make your own with good supplies for around that much. Never know when you’ll need it. -
12.
Sun screen. Surfed for 10 years without it because I liked being tan. Paying the toll with burning pre-cancer off my face every 6 months. -
13.
A second monitor. As an IT guy, I've had 2 monitors for the past 15 years. Absolutely makes everything work or entertainment related better. -
14.
A front and rear dash cam. -
15.
A vasectomy. Still broke but now I don’t have to worry about a drunk or dumb decision making me a father again. I should’ve done it after my second was born 12 years ago. -
16.
A good pair of shoes/boots and a Sonicare toothbrush. Take care of your feet and teeth, you'll be glad you did. -
17.
A taxi. Don't drink and drive. -
18.
I bought a George Foreman grill - 8inch x 18inch. Fantastic for doing quick breakfasts and about a minute to clean. Fabulous stuff. A panini press is also life changing. -
19.
Library card. Gets you access to a ton of books, movies, all sorts of things and they're often free. Just need to live in the area. -
20.
A condom. Saves you hundreds of thousands of dollars. We sell single condoms in my store. I have a couple of younger customers who buy them. I charge 1 dollar, no tax because I’m not about to haggle over 7 cents. And I don't say anything about it. Ever. -
21.
Weighted toddler blanket. It’s like putting a sheet over a birdcage, I swear. -
22.
Carbon monoxide detector. Plug it in your bedroom. That way if there's the 1/1,000,000 chance an appliance or heater malfunctions you'll at least wake up before you die from suffocation in your sleep. -
23.
Nicotine replacement therapy to quit smoking/vaping. -
24.
A portable air compressor for your car tires. Bicycle pumps can work surprisingly well in a pinch.
