My favorite thing would be: at Hobby Lobby, one package that contains a seam ripper, measuring gauge and
a pair of the neatess scissors all for only $1.99 I have a set almost at all my machines. Then you can
buy a small box of chocolates with the rest of the money.

They are super sharp and super pointed. When they get dull, just toss them as they are only about $1.50 each. Another repurposed tool I use is bamboo skewers to hold seams together in close to the presser foot. If you accidently hit it with the needle, the skewer breaks and you toss it rather than the needle. Sometimes you can find cool stuff for under $5. Good luck.
