What have you bought, cheap, expensive, or anywhere in between that has changed your life.

I have just bought a Bissell crosswave, and it is amazing. I feel so organised with lovely clean floors.

What have you bought that has made a real difference to your life?

Shamelessly materialistic

Two house rabbits - they are very entertaining and DH and I love having them around
Cordless vacuum
Dishwasher

I've just bought a RoboVac. Am loving it!

Also a Sonos 5 - great sound at home. I listen to my music all the time.

I second a man’s wallet. I will never go back to a purse. I do have pots of loose change everywhere though.

MacBook Air
AirPods omg I was sceptical but I wouldn’t be without them
Shark hoover

Oh no.. this is one of "those" threads.. ..get your wallets locked (or not)

My Dyson cordless was playing up, kept losing charge, I was so cross I resolved to buy a new hoover (but not a bloody dyson). On an impulse googled the problem and a very nice chap on a YouTube video suggested buying a new battery from amazon at £35 and replacing it myself. I did so, it was easy peasy and as I got a stronger battery than before it hoovers much better and lasts longer.

I am not convinced it's not going to catch fire and burn the house down but so far so good (and actually the charger plug doesn't get hot any more which it used to).

I now have what feels like a brand new vacuum.

A samung note phone. I can do everything on it, it has loads of storage and a good battery life. It has basically replaced my laptop and tablet.

Layz spa used for hydro therapy & meditation.

Border Terrier
Cordless dyson
Multi fuel burner
Mercedes convertible

A Philips Lumea. It’s beyond awesome ❤️

Packing cubes!! Best invention EVER for families who travel!! Best £20 I've spent in my life!! I'll never go anywhere without them again!!

Silicone tongs and silicone muffin cases!

Samsung galaxy buds (like AirPods but for Samsung)

Complete game changer, can't believe I used wired earphones for so long

I don't know what it's called because we just call it the dibber thing but it's for rubbing in butter when you make pastry and scones.
Basically about 5 wires in an oval attached to a handle across the top.
I cannot bear the feel of butter on my fingers when rubbing in so this means I can make scones, earn the adulation of DH who would do anything for a decent scone but not make myself feel ill.
Tis a small victory but well worth the fiver it cost me.

Laser eye surgery about 13 years ago , totally life changing.I
Sky Q, I love it!

Oh and my cat, he was free of charge and has massively enhanced my life.

My breadmaker.
The crosstrainer that I hated for the amount of space it takes up. So handy now.

I don't know what it's called either but I have one for when my fingers cramp up and I can't make the right motion for rubbing butter into flour. Similar principle to a potato masher. Means I can still make pastry and suchlike.

Jeff do you mean one of these?
Bree Drummond uses this to mix butter, make pastry.
I'm assuming it's an American 'thang'?

Cefaly II - an electronic device for prevention and treatment of acute migraines. Literally changed my life as I went from a chronic sufferer to almost zero migraines. (I realise that's not going to exicte everyone though)

Roomi - robot vacuum cleaner. I love the thing. Clean the room, walk out and let it do its thing!

Re-organised the swing cupboard in the kitchen to pull out cupboards and designed the shelving (which is movable) to fit spices, cereal packs etc. I don't have to re-organise stuff now to make things fit.

100% my brand new dishwasher that makes everything sparkling and dry!! Love her to pieces!

Looks like robo hoovers are winning

Chickens. Been keeping them for years now but they have really changed my life. I still get immense joy collecting the eggs daily.

Mitcham deodorant 😂

Dog
House with sea at end of road
Together they have changed the way we love from a typical ex city dweller to an outdoorsy, fresh air type 😂

Oblomov20 I do indeed.
That and the realisation that I could mix the eggy milk mix in with a knife until it was covered in flour was a game changer for me.
