20 people share the life-changing item they bought for less than $100.

While sometimes it's true that you 'get what you pay for,' not everything good in life comes with crippling price tag...

A useful everyday item that can improve your life and doesn't spin you into debt is a rare find. So, when a Reddit user asked, 'What life changing thing can you buy for less than $100?' people were ready to share the purchases that have never left them with buyer's remorse.

I just bought these cushions you place in between your car seats to stop stuff from falling under the seat or getting stuck in between the seat and middle compartment. Pretty life changing for me. - ikyle117

Gravity Blanket or any other weighted blankets. Due to my ADHD I struggle with restlessness and feeling a constant need to just MOVE. The blanket crushes this out of me, cocoons me like a hug, and gets me a proper restful sleep. Best 50 bucks (it was on sale) I ever spent. - salinedrip-iV

As a man, a man purse. Why are we still stuffing our pockets like some kind of crotch gerbil? I have like every EDC item I could want in my bag, from water to cleaner for my glasses to a 7 day pill holder with everything from antinauseants to ibuprofen and everything in between, tissues, my wallet, flashlight, multitool; EVERYTHING. AND I don't sit crooked because if my wallet - scott3845

I like those dr scholls shoe inserts. Up until I got them - I was working retail back then - my feet would eventually start hurting during long shifts. After, it was fine. And they can transfer around to whatever shoes you're wearing (sandals and flip flops aside). - maggienetism

If you are a parent: a projector. I've seen TVs broken from throwing toys, toddlers thinking TVs are touch screen, climbing on furniture, etc. I bought a cheap $50 projector that sits up high and a white bedsheet and it's damn indestructible. - throwawaypbcps
