The Best Under 100 Dollar Purchases I've Made

Discover the secret to boosting your daily happiness with these top 10 under $100 purchases that make a big impact on your quality of life.

The Best under 100 Dollar Purchases I've made

The biggest changes to happiness don't necessary come from a big-ticket purchase. But from removing the little daily annoyances in life.

If you want to spend money on your happiness, don't think: "What should I buy to become happy", but: "What are the day to day objects I use that could use an upgrade instead?"

I was inspired to create a page to list some of the best sub-100$ purchases I've made in my life. All of these are things I use daily.

I'll continue to update this list and limit myself to 10 things. Probably will have to bump the $ amount due to inflation at some point.

I wish everyone made a list like this.

  1. Philips Wake-up light
  2. JBL live pro 2
  3. Sleepmaster sleep mask
  4. Oral B electric tooth brush
  5. Kobo Clara HD ereader
  6. Greenpan non-stick pan
  7. A chefs knife + sharpener
  8. Cloudpillo pillow

Above 100$

  1. Mac pro M3
  2. Iphone
  3. Sleepy matress
  4. Cordless vacuum/mop combo
