Totally googled bee facts for hours after that one lol.

Watched a buddy of mine spend two years chasing gold status at a big hostel chain. He'd book their private rooms at like $45 a night when the place two blocks over had dorm beds for $19 with free breakfast. He finally cashed in his points for three free nights and did the math on the back of a napkin. Turned out he'd spent about $600 extra over those two years to save maybe $150. He switched to family-run guesthouses after that and never looked back. Last I heard he was in Tbilisi paying $16 a night and eating like a king.

Oh man, hate to say it but zip tie mounts aren't really "cheap and lucky" so much as they're just built for exactly this. The adhesive actually cures stronger over a few days, so that router wasn't going anywhere even on day one.
