    22 Things Under $10 That'll Probably Never Stop Being Useful

    When will you stop using these? Never.

    1. A very meta bookmark designed to help track how many books you've checked off your reading list. It's entirely too cute (and cheap) to not buy more whenever you finish filling one up.

    2. A bug bite thing (no, really, that's what it's called) to suck out all the nasty venom and saliva left behind by mosquitos each summer — that means less swelling and itching, and more fun in the sun!

    3. A sloth daily planner and note pad to inspire you to get things done at your own (occasionally super slow) pace. Something else that's neat about this pad is it looks sort of childish, which removes some of the seriousness that often comes with daunting to-do lists.

    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. A pair of no-show socks that'll actually stay on your feet, so you won't have to choose between constantly having to pull them up and just rocking your sneakers commando (which I imagine is a very sweaty and gross experience — please wear socks).

    6. A pack of interdental cleaners, which are great for people like the adult version of myself who hates flossing, as well as the teenage version of myself who always used to get food stuck in my braces. The wire tips on these cleaners bend for easy access, while the brush heads remove food and plaque without the need for tricky maneuvering.

    7. A super soft sports bra, which is obviously meant to provide support during athletic activities, but is also very comfortable to simply sleep in! There's zero underwire AND it ranges in cup size from 28A to 38DDD.

    8. A condiment fork that removes all the mess and hassle of digging into the jar for your midnight snack.

    9. And a dip clip that even makes snacking in the car more convenient, which is perfect for anyone who discovered a love for drive-in movies last year.

    10. A car essential oil diffuser so you'll have some soothing and relaxing vibes to fall back on the next time you're stuck in traffic. You'd have to be Bruce Banner/The Incredible Hulk to succumb to road rage if your car smells like pure bliss.

    11. A pair of surgical tweezers that can help you construct a perfect brow, but are also precise enough to eliminate irritating ingrown hairs.

    12. A travel utensils set, which has always been a smart purchase given how bad plastic utensils are for the environment, but now feels like a necessity if you're like me and have become a certified germaphobe since the pandemic. I'm seriously one step away from also bringing my own cups and plates whenever I go out to eat.

    13. And a set of silicone straws which are equally beneficial for the environment. Ditch that plastic! Think of the sea turtles!

    14. A draft-blocker 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! It also helps to block out noise if you live with loud people.

    15. A Golden Girls dishwasher magnet you can use to let everyone in your first grownup apartment know whether the load in the machine is clean or dirty. It'll make living with roommates (older or younger) a whole lot easier.

    16. A set of spin hair pins to help you achieve the ballerina bun of your dreams (without a tutorial from that beauty influencer you don't even remember following). All you need to do is gather your hair into a tight bun, spin the pins into place, and — boom — you're done.

    17. A stick-on phone wallet that holds up to 10 cards, which will finally allow you to ditch your bulky wallet and start rocking those fabulously tiny purses more often.

    18. A Revlon detangling brush to help tame your mane and reduce the amount of bad hair days you struggle with throughout the week.

    19. Or a pack of flexible curling rods if you'd rather your hair pretty much style itself while you get your beauty sleep.

    20. A wine aerator to both reseal and improve the taste of that bargain basement wine you just couldn't keep yourself from buying.

    21. A pair of charcoal shoe deodorizers if you're the type who loves the way worn out shoes look, but can't bear the smell after a certain point. These will absorb the moisture and odor so you can slide those beat up vans on a few more times without passing out from the funk.

    22. A faucet grip that'll give your green thumb some much-needed assistance as you tend to your lawn or garden.
