11 gadgets under $10 that solve everyday problems

Turning on the bathroom light in the dead of night can be a blinding experience. This inconvenience led to the creation of motion sensor lights that activate automatically, saving you from disturbing your sleeping partner. These lights, such as the Star-Spangled LED Puck Light, cost around $10 and are battery-powered or plug directly into a socket.

They use LED bulbs that run on minimal energy, ensuring long-lasting use. In cars without built-in infotainment systems, peeling-off phone magnets provide an easy solution for mounting phones on the dashboard. These magnets, like the $6.99 WixGear option, are simple to use and offer a permanent fix, though they should be used carefully to avoid distractions while driving.
