20 Items Under $50 That Will Improve Your Life

March 9, 2025
Today, I’m reviewing some of my favorite items under $50 that will improve your life, body, or crib. I will include all the links below.
  1. Blanket: https://amzn.to/4hGirp8 It’s not a big deal but a must-have for every guy’s apartment or home. It’s soft and great for lying down and watching TV. It makes for a luxurious experience and feels great. They are super affordable.
  2. Foot Roller: https://amzn.to/41122oe If you suffer from foot issues or are very active, this little thing is essential. I use it daily, and it’s eliminated my foot issues.
  3. Foam Roller: https://amzn.to/3X8bchA Similar to the foot roller, this one is for your body. You’ll benefit from this roller if you’re active and working your IT bands, thighs, glutes, or back.
  4. Decor Box: https://amzn.to/3X5QIWN Every guy needs a small decorative box to keep a remote control, a light for candles, chapstick or hand lotion, and glasses. It’ll make your place look cleaner and more organized, and it’ll be a bit more mature and elevated in aesthetic.
  5. Candles. Some candles smell amazing, and they’re simple items that can elevate the aesthetic of your environment.
  6. Coasters. Look for a cool coaster that’s elevated and aesthetic, making your place look a little more mature.
  7. Plants. Small plants will instantly elevate the aesthetic and feel of your environment. They’ll add a bit of greenery and Life to your space. Your plant will need a pot ranging from concrete to plastic. I love fiddle-leaf figs. Plants, in general, are an excellent investment because you’ll have them for years, and they add a lot of character to your space.
  8. Silk Pillowcases: https://amzn.to/4i5bfCV Many people get breakouts and blemishes because their pillowcases are made of the wrong fabric. Silk pillowcases are good for skin and hair and feel amazing.
  9. Running Bag: https://amzn.to/3EJmhzh This bag is perfect for traveling, exercising, and being on the go. It has a pad on the back, a few pockets inside, and a hook for your keys.
  10. Slim Wallet: https://amzn.to/3CUEPvM A slim wallet is a great way to upgrade your aesthetic and style. Instead of carrying a big and bulky wallet that’s gigantic in your pocket, a slim wallet with a few cards and dollar bills is perfect.
  11. Flashlight: https://amzn.to/4k0c9SN This small and powerful flashlight is in my and my wife’s cars. I also have one on the nightstand.
  12. Cat. About 16 years ago, I bought my cat piglet at the pound for $10. It’s the best money I’ve ever spent.
  13. Dopp Kit: https://amzn.to/4bbHspS If you like to travel, there’s nothing better than a grab-and-go dopp kit. I keep mine stocked with everything I’ll need to grab it when needed.
  14. Texture Powder: https://amzn.to/412Dlb1. A few sprinkles of this in your hair are incredible. I highly recommend checking it out.
  15. T-shirt: https://amzn.to/4hG0ze6 You can’t go wrong with a simple white or black T-shirt. Depending on the fabric, you can dress them up or down. I like a crew neck with no pocket. If the T-shirt is high quality, you can wear it underneath many things, including a suit. Make sure it fits perfectly as well.
  16. Baseball Hat: https://amzn.to/4bbNqqD. Every guy needs a baseball hat. Make sure it’s not beaten up. Also, choose one that has some meaning that resonates with you. It can be a great conversation starter. Also, make sure it doesn’t smell bad over time.
  17. Birkenstocks: https://amzn.to/3Qj0QYm. I may get some pushback on this, but I love my Birkenstocks. They’re not something I’d wear on a date, but if I’m kicking it in the summer or when I’m done working out, you can’t go wrong throwing these on.
  18. Jeans: https://amzn.to/3X6EixA You can’t go wrong with a great pair of jeans from The GAP. They’re the best denim bang for your buck. They’re also other incredibly affordable brands. A great pair of jeans can change your life.
  19. Sunglasses: https://amzn.to/4hYeHz1 You can find some amazingly affordable sunglasses, and they’re an accessory that you get a lot of style bang for your buck. They’re a great way to spend your money because you’ll always wear them, making you look badass.
  20. Timex Weekender: https://amzn.to/41k0Dua This watch is one of the greatest out there. It was my watch gateway drug. It’s super affordable and one of my favorites. Whether it’s a Timex or a Casio, there are incredible watches that will not break the bank.
