- steego 11y agoReally? You realize you can get all of their products for a little more than a dollar a day, right? Personally, I can't think of a better way to spend my money than to buy something that I use every day that will easily pay for itself in a month's time.

I don't know what your hourly rate is, but if you were only making $10 an hour, this tool would pay for itself if it saved you 4 minutes a day. That's 1% of your time in a normal work day for someone not even making a living wage.
