This one is way below $100, but about ten years ago I bought a roll of twist tie wire at a dollar store. It's fifty or a hundred feet, with a little guillotine cutter. It's still just a bunch of twist tie, but it punches WAY above its weight with quality of life improvement. No more hunting for the one you dropped, or wondering how you'll close up a veggie bag. Also good for (fairly light) pictures that use wire instead of sawtooth hardware, and I've used it in a pinch when I didn't have cable ties. I dunno. It's just an oddly useful substance to have lying in your junk drawer.
In this theme, you can get so many rubber bands for cheap.
Just be careful of the material you get. There are some that degrade over time. That said, I loved playing with bags of rubber bands when I was a kid. I'd stick my hands all the way in the bag and just squish them around. It feels great!
