Earlier this week, we asked you about your best $100-or-less purchase ever. And by golly, you delivered.

What’s the best purchase you’ve ever made for $100 or less? Here’s what our readers said.

Across 100s of responses, the average price per item was $46.

Some themes emerged, including:

10 water bottles, 9 air fryers, 8 instant pots, 7 massagers, 5 Yeti tumblers, 4 egg cookers, 4 blenders, 3 dogs, 3 bidets, 3 TSA PreChecks, and 2 fly swatters.

Here are a few answers that caught our eye:
