What is something really stupid you purchased that turned out far better than expected? - eviltoast

I bought a piece of 1.5 inch stiff foam to try to fix a sag in a bed. It didn’t work but having that thick piece of solid foam around has been a life saver.

Need something flat to put a laptop on? Throw it on the foam. Going to be doing something that requires you to be on your knees for a while? Get the foam!

It went from stupid purchase to something I’d gladly replace if it broke.

    This one I can absolutely agree with. Takes an extra couple seconds when you’re changing sheets but you will never have to redo the corners ever again.

    However, I haven’t been needing them since I started using Threshold sheets from Target. The corners are deep and have a ton of stretch. Of course I keep the suspenders around for when I need them because they’re so small that the footprint is negligible.
