This is the 19th article of the bmf Calendar Advent Calendar 2017 - Adventar.
Let's look back at the things I bought in 2017 that I found worthwhile.
I picked out items that I personally feel have improved my quality of life.
Bluetooth Headphones
These are Bluetooth-compatible earphones.
They are reasonably priced.
There are wired and wireless versions of these earphones, but I bought the wired type because I think they are less likely to get lost.
They are very useful when running, at the gym, or on the train.
The only downside is that they run out of battery after about 4 hours even on a full charge, but the cost performance is good.
Bluetooth 4.1 Transmitter Receiver
TaoTronics Transmitter Receiver
I purchased this to make my iPod Classic Bluetooth compatible.
It's also reasonably priced.
It can function as both a transmitter and a receiver, so the cost performance is good.
Recently, I've started listening to music on my iPhone, so I don't use it as much anymore.
Cote&Ciel Bag
This is a sturdy and stylish bag.
I think the design can be used with any outfit.
It also goes well with coats.
Megalos Kichijoji
I joined Megalos Kichijoji.
It's a gym.
Going to the gym is an investment in health and achieving the ideal body.
Just by running and continuing strength training, a certain level of mental and physical health is guaranteed. (Probably)
I used to think, "It's a waste of time to exercise; I want to do things I enjoy," but not exercising is actually a waste.
I believe exercise is necessary to maintain and improve daily performance. (I have experienced this.)
MonaCoin
There were two festivals, and they were enjoyable.
mineo
I switched from au to mineo.
The cheap smartphone is so affordable that I regret not considering it sooner.
So far, there are no particular issues with communication or functional limitations.
There are probably more things I could mention, but I can't recall them, so I'll stop here.
Reflecting on What I Bought This Year
There are quite a few good things available even at low prices.
