Court-Mandated Savings

Tools and resources that actually save you money. Reviewed by The Judge. Approved for your wallet.

โš–๏ธ

The Impulse Judge does not accept bribes (coffee aside). Every tool on this page was selected because it genuinely helps you spend less and keep more.

๐Ÿ†“ Free Tools

None of the links below pay me any commission. I listed them because these tools actually work, and I am tired of watching you waste money. While the Judge approves of all these free tools, I have no control over them and am not responsible for their usage. Use at your own risk, defendant.

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ
Ad Blockers
You cannot buy what you cannot see. Block ads, block temptation. It is that simple. These are free, open-source, and do not sell your data.
๐Ÿ“š
Your Local Library + Libby
Stop buying audiobooks and ebooks. Your taxes already paid for them. Libby connects to your library card and gives you free access to thousands of titles. The Judge approves.
๐Ÿช
CamelCamelCamel
We prefer you do not checkout at all. But if you MUST buy something on Amazon, at least check if the "sale" price is actually a sale. This tool shows you price history so you do not fall for fake discounts.
๐Ÿ”ง
iFixit (Repair Guides)
Your phone is not broken; you are just lazy. Read the guide, get a screwdriver, and fix it yourself instead of dropping $1,000 on a new one. Free, high-quality repair manuals for everything from iPhones to toasters.
๐Ÿ”
Bitwarden (Password Manager)
Stop paying $60/year for a password manager. This one is open-source, has a free tier for personal use, and does not hold your data hostage. Secure your wallet and your accounts.
๐ŸŽฌ
Kanopy (Free Streaming)
You have 5 streaming subscriptions and still say "there is nothing to watch." Cancel them. Use your library card. Watch free movies. Get smarter. Connects to your public library for free films and documentaries.

Brands & Developers

Approach the bench carefully. I do not do "influencer shills". I do not read scripts about VPNs protecting me from hackers in coffee shops. If your product actually saves people money, blocks ads, or destroys debt, I might let you into the courtroom after careful deliberation.
