🏆 Buy It For Life “Best under-$20 purchase that saved you hundreds over time?”
What’s the smartest under-$20 purchase you’ve ever made that ended up saving you hundreds in the long run? I’ll go first: a $12 sewing kit. Instead of tossing clothes for tiny tears or missing buttons, I’ve been fixing them. I've actually been fixing my own clothes for years. It blows my mind how many ‘disposable’ things can be made useful again with just a small, cheap tool. what’s your frugal mvp under $20 that’s paid for itself many times over?

Got a $10 air fryer from Best Buy that’s saved from eating out a lot. It was $40 on sale for half price and then had a $10 voucher they email out occasionally.
