Default Things that are cheaper than they should be.

I am often fascinated by the fact that most things are ridiculously overpriced, but there are still items that surprise me for how cheap they are.

The one that is the all time champ for me is the common lighter. There are plastic, metals, gas, moving parts and springs. It seems that making a lighter is a fairly involved multi step process, and they still sell it for ~ a buck.

What other items surprise you because of their low price point?

Stamps

Mail something from anywhere in the US to anywhere else in the US in just a couple of days for something like 40 cents which is very nearly nothing.

This was my first thought, as well. It is incredibly cheap to send a letter.
