I don't see shoehorn yet, so shoehorn. But, I thought the one I got was more expensive than a plastic thing really should be.

I got it after reading one of these threads.

I stole the metal one from DSW when I got a new pair. It is game changing

Spending the little bit of extra money on Gold Toe socks and Dr. Scholl's gel inserts.

One of those adjustable clasping tactical-style belts. I fluctuate in weight frequently so my belts never fit quite right. This is the only type that's done a respectable job of keeping my pants up. I just wish they made them in other colors.

Replacing the battery in my ps5 controller instead of just buying a new controller. It was super simple to install and the batteries cost $17.00.

An egg slicer that you could also use to slice strawberries, whole pitted olives and other similar things.

It's so quick compared to doing it manually, and so easy to clean.

A new mousepad. I don't know how much it cost, but it was on the low end and I got it from a local book shop to replace an aging, unusable one last March.

It's serving me quite well.
