The $1.56 Balaclava

The $1.56 Balaclava

When the weather started to dip in early November, I hit the market looking for a good balaclava.

I picked one up at Mark's Work Warehouse, which was just fine until the temps dipped again.  At that point, I started preferring a fleece balaclava from Costco.  That's the one I wore today.

During this balaclava accumulation period, I bought one online via Amazon.ca.  After taxes and shipping the grand total cost of this balaclava was $1.56 CAD.

It took over a month to arrive from China, but here it is.

I'll likely never wear it, because I have two better balaclavas, but it still blows my mind how little this thing cost.  Now there's a razor-thin margin!
