What item do you own that has an unexpectedly high value? in c/[email protected]

I went to a Hotel Furniture liquidator for some new furniture. Saw a good looking office chair and they only wanted $20 for it.

Brought that bad boy home and only then did I find out that they had sold me a new Herman Miller Aeron for only $20. Completely insane.

What are your tips for saving money and reducing waste? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Here's a couple examples from my life:

  1. Safety Razor. I get a better shave and it's like $15 for 100 razor blades, which lasts me a couple years. Way way way better than the disposable multi-blade Gillette things, which sell 5 heads for $20.

  2. Handkerchiefs. I am prone to allergies, so instead of constantly buying disposable tissues, we now have a stack of handkerchiefs that can just be used a few times and then thrown in the wash. This has also saved me loads.

What about you?

See the meme has it all wrong. The boba isn't made from ribosomes. Boba recharges ribosomes.

I drink boba once a week to maintain healthy endoplasmic reciticlums.

Not all sand is equal. We dredge up ocean sand because the particle shape and composition is excellent for concrete. Other sand isn't as good.
