Honestly a bidet. Brondell occasionally has "open box" ones for $100 less than retail and it's been amazing! I've saved money on toilet paper, I am more sexually active because I used to not let anyone go down on me unless I was freshly showered, I can eat spicy food without fear(which helps with weight loss), and I've gotten a bidet with instant hot water so it's heaven. I highly recommend it, especially for women. It's proven to help stop frequent UTIs too... and in the USA, where you don't get free Healthcare, that pays for itself.

Not good deals per se, but a list of stuff that might be useful. All this stuff is expensive and as such may not be accessible to many people. Apologies for USA centric views and prices.

  • Cut gloves. Protect your hands while cutting food! $20.
  • Light blocking curtains. Good for sleep and cooling a room. $50 upwards. Get multiple pairs for better heat blocking.
  • UV and/or infrared blocking film for your windows. $50 upwards.
  • Victorinox chefs knife. Great quality, not expensive. So worth it.
  • Sharpening stone for the above. $50 for a fairly standard one. Get a flat leather strop too, and red polishing compound. Blunt knives are dangerous!
  • Multitool. Handy pair of pliers and screwdrivers.
  • Naloxone. You never know if you might need to help an overdose.
  • Resqme car escape tool. Put it on your car keys keyring.
  • Tourniquet. Learn how to use it, get a high quality one. It might save a life.
  • Small battery pack and solar panels. Because electric companies are shit in the USA.
  • Nitrile gloves. Put the over the cut gloves when handling food.
  • Pour over coffee maker. Aeropress. Burr grinder for coffee beans.
  • Variable Temperature kettle.

Ok I've procrastinated enough lol, enjoy!

A gallon of Dr. Bronners environmentally friendly soap will last you for a very long time and is an excellent all purpose cleaner. I recommend tea tree oil one for extra antibacterial and antiseptic properties
