For me, it was a pair of merrell shoes on sale. They have lasted 3+ years, have great grip in the snow and ice, and so comfortable, my feet don't hurt after wearing all day.

Never cheap out on anything that comes between you and the ground; shoes, tires, a bed.

What have been some of your good purchases under $100?

for something that I don't think a lot of people consider...I got a wrist rest for my mouse and keyboard as a present that I had asked for. it's significantly reduced my wrist and hand pain while typing or using my mouse, which is nice, because I already have pain issues.

additionally! my other mention would be my weighted blanket. I got one as a gift (but it wasn't heavy enough, make sure if you get one it's the right weight) and basically tried it and slept better than I ever had. it only sucks during summer because it makes me warmer. but, other than that, I highly recommend one if someone is thinking about it.
