No more repeat purchases!
 | | Buy cheap, buy twice | | In this economy, with these prices, folks aren't necessarily looking for the "smartest" appliance, product, or furniture every time. No matter our income, most of us just don't want to keep replacing something because it broke or wore out. | | Enter the BIFL philosophy: Buy It For Life. Instead of chasing the latest smart features that'll be obsolete in 2 years, our team went hunting for products that could last decades — some literally passed down through generations — including: | | 🍳 A cast iron skillet: Commerce Editor Chelsea Logan says, "I got mine at the Goodwill in college, and it's the only pan I haven't had to replace since then. The nonstick and the ceramic ones seem to wear out over time, but the cast iron is still going strong." | | 🇸🇪 Swedish dishcloths: Engagement editor Sarah Choi confided, "I used to go through paper towels at an alarming rate. Recently, I made the switch to Swedish dishcloths, and I can't look back! When they get dirty, you simply throw them in the washing machine and dryer, and they come back as good as new." | | 🛀 A stone bath mat: Newsletter editor Ginger Wojcik recommends one made of diatomaceous earth, which "absorbs water without ever getting soggy, pretty much like magic. Honestly, I don't know why anyone wouldn't own one of these." | | These may not be the most sophisticated products, but they are some of the most enduring ones. No apps, no updates, no planned obsolescence. Just quality materials and build that outlast any trend that comes next. | | Are you ready to break the cycle of constant repurchasing? Find more of the best buy-it-for-life products for every room in your home. | | See you in a couple of weeks!— Healthline Newsletter Team
