What are some of the best purchases of your life?

What are some of the best purchases of your life? - Lemmy.world

For me it has to be: 1. Helix mattress ($1,217). Sleep is great. 2. Home gym power cage & weights (~$1,000). Look good, feel good, get strong. 3. Netgear Nighthawk AXE7800 ($339). No more random, annoying internet disconnects/slowness. 4. Books ($0 @ library) - “Ultralearning” - Scott Young (how to learn efficiently) - “Enlightenment Now” - Steven Pinker (the world overall is improving) - “The Bogleheads’ Guide to Investing” - Taylor Larimore (how to invest) 5. PS5 ($500). So many great games like witcher 3, god of war, spiderman. I’m searching for some more deep value purchases. Give me what you’ve got.

A $100 brother laser printer (2280dw but it has been discontinued). It’s like a printer from an alternative universe where printers aren’t evil.

Had it for about 6 years now. Printed thousands of pages and only needed to replace the ink cartridge a few times. Had no issues with 3-rd party cartridges. Surprisingly never required any maintenance.

Other laser printer brands that can probably perform similarly, but I can only vouch for this one.

For me it’s HP something laser all black. Still printing after 12 years. Printed my and my wife’s study things for 7 years. Printed a lot more when I got into RPGs.
