Being called "cheap" wasn't always a compliment. Technically it still isn't, but now when someone calls me cheap, I smile. Why? Because all that means is that I'm smart enough to shop all the surprisingly cheap AF products available on Amazon. Everybody else can have fun shelling out their hard-earned money for overpriced items — but me? I'm over it.

Instead of cracking open my wallet for expensive kitchen renovations, I'm buying the organizer that helps save me precious cabinet space. Does it look as great as a complete pantry makeover? Of course not. But for under $20, it's not going to send my bank account into the red for the foreseeable future. Same with the over-the-sink drying rack, fabric shaver, and meat tenderizer that I've made sure to include. They're all brilliant finds that upgrade my home, and I can scoop up multiple items since they all feature such great, affordable prices.
