The DaysAgo Digital Day Counter is a simple little electronic badge with a day counter on it. Each badge has either suction cup or a magnet on the back so you can stick it right to the item you’d like to keep track of. Just press the button, and it keeps track of how many days have passed since you last reset it. A set of two timers is just $10, and they come in four assorted colors.
