    It’s a bit more than 20 bucks but you can buy a ring of keys to pretty much any piece of heavy equipment you could possibly want.

    You never know when say… Let’s pick a random one … A Komatsu D355A could come in handy.

    A slicer to slice eggs, strawberries etc into small slices.

    Place in hole, close top with metal wires over it, and voila, sliced whatever!

    Works great on olives as well.

    Not Amazon but MercadoLivre, I bought a water bottle that keeps water cold for a very long time (my old one stopped working somehow and the handle was broken). A bit over R$100 which is just under $20.

    Cheap bluetooth obd2 scanner. But yeah, I’ve been trying to keep my Amazon spending to a minimum. I’ll try to buy from anywhere else first

        I mean you can connect almost any IEMs or headphones to it. It’s got a really good DAC all things considering.

    Ultrasonic cleaner! Really awesome for glasses, jewelry, all kinds of small stuff. I fill it with isopropanol solution and clean my phone case in it.

      Not USB-C, I hope.

      (USB-C cables are smart cables with chips in, and the standard does not allow for extensions of any sort, intelligent or otherwise.)

    I try to use Amazon less and less these days, but there are still some things worth getting for cheap.

    A whole category for me is small kitchen items. Mixing bowls, bench scraper, oil bottles, squeeze bottles, etc. You can get good brands too, you just have to look a little harder these days.

    Basically every usb cable i have bought. If you try it locally, there are like two bigger chains in every city who sell those at ridiculous costs. To get them at a reasonable price you’d have to drive to a specialised vendor available only in the biggest cities (conrad, elv) or at very remote places (e.g. pollin).
