I bought an eight outlet power strip with surge protectors and 4 usb charger plug ins built into the power strip. I have everything on my entertainment stand all plugged in and a phone charger that reaches from there all the way to the couch.

Well after 61,000 miles I finally got rid of my tires (which have been trying to kill me for a couple of months now) and bought new tires this past Saturday. So, yeah. Keep good tires on your vehicles.

I used to sell tires, and the line I always used was :

"I don't care how good your brakes are, your brakes can only stop your wheels, your tires stop you car. I don't care how strong your engine is, your engine can only spin your wheels, your tires move your car. I can make a minivan out handle a corvette by putting the right tires on the minivan, and the wrong tires on the corvette. Every move your car makes has to go through your tires before anything actually happens. "

Tires are critical, there is no excuse to go with cheap, crappy tires.

Hair trimmers.

I paid $60 for a nice set many years ago... I don't even know how many. As a guy who wears closely trimmed hair, they've probably saved me thousands on haircuts over the years.

Best ROI of any product I've ever purchased.

Ayyyyy, when I got my last prescription, I got a pair of polarised prescription sunglasses for free. Absolutely amazing. I'd never worn sunglasses prior because I'd have to take my glasses off to wear them, meaning everything is really fucking blurry. But these things are amazing <3

I also LOVE my KitchenAid stand mixer!!!!! The biggest game changer for me was getting the paddle with the flexible silicon fin edges that scrape the sides of the bowl clean for you as it mixes.

Tried these once when I was desperate. The claims sounded so absurd. I don't question them anymore. They're a miracle.
