    32 Household Products That Don’t Cost A Fortune

    These things will help you upgrade your home without putting you in the poor house.

    1. A drain snake so you can avoid those ridiculous plumbing bills whenever your sink needs unclogging.

    2. And a TubShroom that'll prevent a clogged drain in the first place. Miraculously, this handy little thing can catch hairs while never disrupting the water flow.

    3. A pack of clear bumper stickers (no, not the kind that go on cars) to make your home a much quieter place. These will keep your drawers and cabinets from slamming shut, even if your house is haunted by very petty and rambunctious ghosts.

    4. A colorful pack of leather cord organizers, which would be useful for anyone whose desk drawer is basically a bottomless abyss of jumbled wires.

    5. An adhesive remover to get rid of sticky residue left from price stickers and labels — which are ESPECIALLY annoying whenever I see them on kitchenware. Did you not know that I plan to eat off this, Mr. Manufacturer???

    6. A mini bottle of touch-up paint that'll cover small, cosmetic imperfections that maybe visible on your walls or furniture (such as chips, scratches, stains, etc.).

    7. And an OxiClean laundry whitener + stain remover to accomplish something similar for your white clothes, brightening and restoring them their original color.

    8. Heavy-duty cleaning wipes that'll remove stains and splatters from any part of the house without feeling like you're *actually* cleaning. This feels like it's specifically made for people like me who can demolish an entire roll of paper towels over the course of a single weekend.

    9. A Golden Girls dishwasher magnet you can use to let everyone in the house know whether the load in the machine is clean or dirty. It'll make living with roommates (elderly or otherwise) a whole lot easier.

    10. A garbage disposal cleaner to rid your home of unpleasant odors that come from particles stuck in your machine's pipes. Bonus: It has a fresh lemon scent.

    11. And a stainless-steel bar if you're tired of your hands smelling like the stuff that ultimately winds up in the garbage disposal when you're done washing the dishes.

    12. A pack of generic melamine sponges that work just as well as the name brand sponges but are a lot cheaper.

    13. A window insulator kit if being inside all of 2020 made you realize how damn drafty your living room is. Think of the money you'll save on heat!

    14. Or these draft stoppers that attach to doors instead of windows.

    15. A stainless steel cleaner to EVISCERATE existing grease stains, watermarks and fingerprints, *and* help prevent new ones from appearing.

    16. A bottle of spray-on gel that'll dissolve the years-old rust stains that have been grossing your house guests out for as long as you can remember.

    17. And a disposable cleaning wand, because the only thing worse than a rusty shower is a dirty toilet.

    18. Or a pumice cleaning stone for stains on your toilet that require a little more elbow grease.

    19. A grout pen to...well...hide dirty grout. Because just painting over the dirt is the perfect chore for lazy adults.

    20. A bottle of Bar Keepers Friend soft cleanser you can use to tackle anything in the kitchen or bathroom — from rusty knives to stained porcelain sinks.

    21. Dye-trapping sheets for those of us who sometimes forget to separate our laundry (by forget, I of course mean actively choose to not do it and risk suffering grave consequences).

    22. A clothes folder that's so easy to use you'll actually *look forward* to folding your clean clothes instead of just piling them on top of the "clothes chair" in your bedroom.

    23. A tabletop fireplace for anyone who doesn't live in a traditional suburban home but would still like to experience the luxury of sipping coffee (or cocoa) by the fire.

    24. A scratch-free scraper tool so you can remove labels and other sticky things like a civilized person instead of using your nails like some sort of X-Men character.

    25. A simple yet effective Command hook that can be used to hang pretty much anything. Hats, coats, keys, scarfs — lions, tigers, bears, oh my.

    26. A hanger stacker, because sometimes we need an extra organization tool to help us organize the things that are supposed to keep us organized in the first place — it's organization inception!

    27. Vacuum storage bags that'll become an essential part of your spring cleaning routine. These things are also great for people who move a lot.

    28. These insect traps that work so well you'll be thrilled AND absolutely disgusted by the results.

    29. Or a six-pack of nontoxic moth traps. Though it's important to remember these are meant to trap pantry moths, NOT closet moths.

    30. A leather conditioner to transform your worn-out shoes, chairs, couches (really anything leather) back to how they looked when you got them. You made the decision to get all fancy with your leather goods — now it's time to maintain them.

    31. A faucet grip that'll add size and leverage to any outdoor faucet, meant to help people with limited mobility who tend to have trouble with small handles.

    32. Storage bin decals, because no BuzzFeed list would be complete without some good ol' organizational content. This one goes out to everyone who has a label of some sort on damn near every container in their home.
