The same week that

I had to spend $1,400 on car repairs, the wife talked me into spending $500 on a robot vacuum cleaner.

It was actually relatively easy to set up and get going. We told it to vacuum the house, but it had to charge up first because it comes with only a limited amount of power in the battery, so we had to wait.

We went to bed, and around 2 in the morning, the wife woke me up. "The robot's doing the bedroom!" Yup, there was a robot, vacuuming our bedroom. She was so excited.
