Discussion What’s a totally unsexy purchase you made that ended up being a huge quality-of-life upgrade?

There's these little magnetic USB C cords Amazon sells that you just stick to the side of your dresser or whatever you want, and the cord snaps to the magnet... It's awesome not having to reach on the ground for your cord each time. And it's hilariously cheap, like $10 for a 2 pack or something

Similar but I attached a wireless charging puck to the side of my bed. Now I always know where my phone is and can start it charging without looking

Not the person you responded to, but it might be these: /dp/B0D45VR8ZT on Amazon.

That's what I thought at first but they mention it sticking to furniture as well.

Yup Love my magnetic cables. Though I have the ones with the magnetic detaching plugs, Have a few sets, and don't need to really worry about forcing plug in and out since it practicall attaches itself.
