Recommend a bead breaker?

I want to swap out my own TPMS sensors between some summer & winter tires, but I've never had a tire bead breaker. Can anyone recommend one? It would need to be reasonably affordable, and most importantly non-marring when used by a knuckle dragger (me). I would only use it a couple times a year, so ease of use & robustness are less important.

Are they shipping from your store? I'm showing $6.99 shipping and handling for a bead breaker from my store. I can't be bothered to put pants on to go there for $7.
