I’m curious, what’s an item, tool, or purchase you own that you feel has completely justified its cost over time? Could be anything from a gadget to a piece of furniture or even software. What made it worth it for you?

Get one of those rentable food safe C02 gas cans that you keep and you just pay for C02 refills and just mod your sodastream to accept it or get an adapter

When you no longer need the tank you just return it

Not sure if you can buy the tank instead of renting it

Way more economical than the sodastream two you buy at the shop

Though YMMV depending on your location

Though if your feeling fancy get one of the more expensive carbonators ones that you can install in your countertop
