Hot take: My $45 investment in a talking cactus plant was a total game changer

I bought it as a joke for my desk, but hearing it say 'You got this, buddy!' every time I walked by actually got me through a really tough project. Anyone else have a weirdly effective purchase that kept them going?

My weirdly effective purchase was a $5 stress ball shaped like a grumpy cat (it just works).

I mean, I bought a fancy weighted blanket to fix my sleep and it just makes me feel trapped. The grumpy cat stress ball sounds way more my speed, honestly. Maybe I just need simpler solutions.

My $20 sunrise alarm clock was a lifesaver last winter. Waking up to a fake dawn instead of a loud beep made getting out of bed way less awful. It sounds small, but that gentle light completely changed my morning mood.
