A Gilhoolie. It opens tight lid jars w/o hurting my fingers. Even better than hot water. They come in different shapes. Gotta save my figers for guitar playing.

American made SOG multi-tool. This has saved me countless hours chasing tools to make quick fixes, not to mention emergency stuff when other tools weren't available. My late Dad actually bought it and I've worn through 2 and have a new Leatherman Arc under the tree because the SOG stuff is now made in China.

I'm sorry that kids are not reading where you are. They sure do in the two places where we live even though content varies a lot. Much is electronic now but the libraries remain popular in both places. I'm also not so quick to judge because my phone is a primary work tool, and same for our 3 kids on a STEM, engineering and pre-med path. Maybe someone you saw in a restaurant was just like our son who had time to join us before his recent anatomy exam and using the phone to study?

I was given an Air Fryer as a gift. I thought it wouldn't be used. Not the case, we use it many days a week.

If you do your own (or family, friends, etc..) brakes, this is a much appreciated gadget. Wish I had bought one decades a go as it makes quick work of caliper relief.

Portable tire inflator. No more quarters, bad tire pressure gauges and racing around my car before the timer runs out.

Comb binding machine. I take music books that won't stay flat, take the pages out of the binding and replace it with a comb binder. Ideally, I'd use my table saw, but it's in storage at the moment, so it's a little more work but the pages usually come out pretty easily. Mine is similar to this one, but not identical, was less than $10 at Goodwill. So far I've converted about 10 books, plus bound some downloaded music.
