Watta buncha insanely overpriced plastic junk!
Some people are addicted to woodworking.
Others are excellent at selling drooling fools "insanely overpriced
plastic junk". Case in point:

I've bought a few things from Lee Valley. I'll most likely buy a few
more things. But, I'm no chump and will not pay $10 fer something I
can probably make out of a wad of chewing gum.
I bought something similar at Office Depot once to get some internet
cable off of the floor. The price seemed "marked-up" to me too, but it
was a good and fast solution to a problem. The one's I bought were in
the "easily-removable" category. If I need 100 of them I might consider
the matter differently than if I needed only 6. My time is worth
something too... "You have to choose your battles..." : )
I needed something similar to keep my Cell phone charging cord on top of
my table, and I used a paper clip, like this:
