What have you bought that changed your life in a good way.

I have bought so many things but my all time best purchase was a robotic vacuum. I love this thing so much. I always hated vacuuming and because husband is retired had to pick a time that TV was not on or he was not asleep or I was in the mood to do it. Needless to say it got done but not enough. Now I can do it early in the morning before he gets up while I am on the computer. I don't do whole house at a time. I get up and turn it on in my bedroom and maybe later another bedroom or den etc. I just love it and feel like I am leading a cleaner life. Every time I open the bin to empty after each cleaning I am blown away at the dirt, dog hair etc. I don't know why because my house is surrounding by grass, mats at the door and concrete sidewalks and drive way. I almost feel like I have a maid. I am ready to get the one that mops....

1) I agree I love our robotic vacuum!

2) I LOVE my IPL ( light-pulsed) hair growth reducer/ eliminator! Better than laser because do it at home, cheaper than laser treatments, no pain, no ingrown hairs! My prickly leg hair barely grows at all now! GAME CHANGER! 💝💝💝💝

Good post Aubegirl!

A gym membership, time with a personal trainer, a golf membership and hockey gear. Probably not the answer the OP was looking for, but they've all enabled me to make positive, on-going changes in my life.

My YMCA membership and taking water aerobics. I call it the fountain of youth. I have never felt better in my life. I’m able to keep my weight down and am in great physical shape in my 60’s. I’ve made some great friends, too.

My tuba. Sometimes I think it’s actually SAVED my life.

Completely agree about gym membership! I joined mine 18 years ago and I’m sure it’s done me a world of good. As far as QVC products go, I think I’d say Josie Marans Argan Oil. I can’t imagine being without it.

In 1990, I bought an Umbrella Cockatoo whom I named "Sasha." She became the love of my life until she suddenly passed in 2014. Parrots are my life companions and that started with Sashimi.

There are probably a long list of things I purchased which not thinking they would have a life changing effect have. My short list would lean more toward things I didn't expect to be life changing. For example I am sitting at my computer with coffee and water contained in Primula thermal tumblers and both have been hot and cold nearly 3 hours now. The tumblers were a whim purchase made while watching an ITKWD show a couple of years ago and I have used them daily since the purchase. The water has an added angle to this thread as it is infused using a Primula infusion pitcher (also purchased after seeing a presentation on ITKWD). Since buying the pitcher my intake of water has increased from a few sips a day to polishing off at least two fillings of the 20oz tumbler. I never dreamed that the using an infusion pitcher could alter my taste buds to turn water into something I crave.

Our condo in Naples, FL: time to relax after getting things organized to be away for a few months. Escaping the bitter cold and damp helps a lot. Lucky enough to buy when the time was right. Trading the driving and flying down !

Looking forward to more time there with his imminent retirement !

My Kindle. I love to read and I live in a small community with no decent place to buy books. My BFF talked me into buying a Kindle when I retired and now ?I have a world of books at my fingertips.

My two pups definitely keep me busy and entertained!
Sonicare toothbrush for the last twenty years. That really changed my opinion about the cost of a toothbrush. I won't go anywhere without one.
Vitamins, though my doctor thinks they are a waste of money if you eat a well balanced diet. Well I try but just in case I add Centrum and vitamin C.

Chantix. Bought it at full price before my insurance would cover it. I didn't care what it cost. I wanted to quit at all costs.
