What's the thing that you thought you didn't need but is actually very useful?

Did you buy something maybe because it was on sale or you just thought "meh ok I guess I can" and then you realized that it actually is life-changing to you? Then you wonder why you haven't bought it before?

Mine would be a pressure washer.

Living in a country with dry and rainy season, it's so common to see fences or outside walls to have moss or dried up dirt develop especially if you don't maintain it regularly. A lot of those dirt can stick to walls and will get hard af for some reason and now you will need extra power and time to scrub them off.

I always thought *yeah maybe they just scrub them with soap or chemicals* which works too but sometimes it doesn't.

Then I found out about pressure washers... and also thought yeah they might be too expensive. Well, apparently not nowadays. :D

I recently purchased a pressure washer on a discount for about $50. I didn't expect them to be affordable like this but it's also from a reputable local brand so I decided to get on with it. Then I tried it for the first time... and it's so mindblowing how easy it is to clear up the dirt especially on bricks.

I was even planning on spending my days scrubbing outside with chemicals cos I'm so tired of seeing the outside being dirty lol but with a washer that work is lessened greatly.

Just a con though is that it's so freaking loud. I feel like I'm disturbing my neighbors using a power tool haha but then again we heard construction noises for 2 years here so I guess they should be forgiving of that. Or maybe it's just me who thinks it's too loud and they're fine with it.

Anyway, I'm really enjoying it and gone are the days that I will block the tip of the hose to create that pressure lol but it is definitely life-changing for me. I haven't finished cleaning the whole area yet since we are also changing stuff inside the house too but I am enjoying it currently. Watching all those dirt, moss, grime, and whatever just get washed off by the washer is so satisfying.

# What about you? Did you get anything recently that made your life better or made things a lot easier? 

It doesn't have to be a purchase. It could be a thing someone gave to you that you didn't try or kept away for some reason then realized you should've looked into it more. Or a habit you thought is not needed but changes everything or something?
