What is something really stupid you purchased that turned out far better than expected?

I bought a piece of 1.5 inch stiff foam to try to fix a sag in a bed. It didn't work but having that thick piece of solid foam around has been a life saver.
Need something flat to put a laptop on? Throw it on the foam. Going to be doing something that requires you to be on your knees for a while? Get the foam!
It went from stupid purchase to something I'd gladly replace if it broke.

This inflatable two seater kayak from Intex. I thought it would suck, but it's been incredible. Except for the piece of shit paddles were too short. But the kayak itself is a boss
Did you buy it at Walmart last summer when they were on sale for like 60 bucks? If so we are twinsies.
We have that one as well (also replaced the paddles) and my friends tried it out and liked it so much they bought their own. They went with Sevylor backpack kayaks though. They're a little bulky, but still let them bike to the boathouse to meet us.
Yes, we also have inflatable kayaks. Two one-seaters, though. Sevylor Quickpak K1. We got them when we lived in our apartment, but we still use them now that we have a house. Our paddles also sucked, but real ones still fit in the "backpack." The whole freakin' thing folds up and the seat becomes the pack! Take it with you, air pump and all.
