Today I offer you a very random collection of recent purchases. They all share a couple of things in common:
- They were purchased on Amazon
- They cost under £10
- They give a disproportionate amount of enjoyment for their price
Item #1: The World's Best Knife Sharpener
Price: £8.40
I had spent my entire adult life thinking that 'good' knives were the preserve of professional chefs. Every evening I would labour through the slicing and dicing of vegetables with something akin to blunt marshmallow. Then on a whim I purchased the little blue contraption pictured. A couple of ear tingling swipes of each knife blade and I was the proud owner of an awesome set of knives. I do live in fear of chopping off my fingers but prepping the vegetables has become a piece of cake.
Item #2: Therapeutic Head Massager
Price: £2.67
It looks like a instrument used to study craniology but in fact it is an amazing giver of head massages. I don't quite know how it works or why it feels so good but it does! I like to think it works as a stress reliever but i think that might be pushing it.
Item #2: Lambswool Insoles
Price: £1.95
Trying to be frugal, I bought these hoping to breathe a little extra life into a pair of haggard boots. They were a revelation. Super soft cushioned lambswool for your feet. They felt like walking on a pillow. With the added benefit of being snug and warm for the winter months. A pair of boots almost destined for the bin became my favourite go-to shoe for any amount of walking.
