Ask IH: What product/service of yours can I buy for $1?

So I found one dollar on my couch and for some reason,
I got a flashback on my mind about a scene of Mr. Selfridge where he asks his employees:

"What can I buy with 3 pence?"

The employees replied with nothing, maybe if he had at least 6 pence he could afford a handkerchief.

At the end of the episode, he figures out a way, to offer discounts and sell something for 3 pence. Also, he stops the plans of one of his competitors to open a shop in the same street as him because of the lower prices.

So I thought it was a good idea to ask the same question here.

PS: Please add a link and a short description of your product ;)

PS2: If you ask to google "What can you buy for a dollar?" he replies with a whole list of products including .com web domains.

    You might get some App Store related answers to that as it's one of the go-to prices, or to be more precise 99 cents. It certainly is for one of my side-projects: I've made a vocabulary/language learning app that teaches words/vocabulary based on the entire emoji catalogue:

    It's really hard to sell anything for a buck in internet, because most of those money will be taken by payment processors.

    I was thinking of selling automated reports for YouTubers, but didn't figure out how to charge 5 bucks without lossing most of them in a way to my pocket

      That depends on the way you want to deliver the product. Still $4.34 is not as bad as you think. Unless your desired margin profit is less.
