TIL my $40 'bullet journal kit' was a total waste of cash

I saw a fancy ad for a kit with a stencil, special ruler, and tiny washi tapes. Bought it thinking it would make my spreads perfect. Used the stencil once and the ruler is just a normal ruler but pink. Honestly, my favorite pages are still the ones I just doodle in with a regular pen. Anyone have a cheap tool that actually helped their bujo game?

You said your favorite pages are the ones you just doodle. What's stopping you from just doing that all the time instead?

What's stopping me? Probably the same thing that made @young.michael ask this question, a weird need to make things "right" before having fun.

Ugh, I feel this. Bought a whole calligraphy set that's still in the box. My best tool is a 50 cent pack of colored pencils from the grocery store. Lets me add quick color without the fuss. @carr.abby nailed it with that "make things right" pressure.
