Do you use one?
Which?
How much it costs?

These are probably the best ones...
▪ <span class="bold">KeePass Password Safe</span>
Free and open source
▪ <span class="bold">LastPass</span>
Free, but you need a Premium account if you want to synchronize with other devices ( $ 12 / year )
▪ <span class="bold">1Password</span>
$ 49.99 for Windows or Mac / $ 69.99 for Windows and Mac / $ 5.99 for iOS / $ 6.49 for Android.
▪ <span class="bold">Dashlane</span>
$ 39.99 / year
Take a look at <span class="bold">this article</span> for more info.

KeePass, it's very free and since it's open source there's also a couple of apps for Android.

I concur with the above, I have used Keepass for a long time now, and it is pretty good, will generate with various options, keeps passwords organised. And you can stick it into Portable Apps on a pen drive and take it with you and use as and when as no install is needed.

Lastpass is pretty good and decently safe.
I highly highly recommend you use 2 factor on it to solidly protect the account... one of the few free ones that allow it.

I highly recommend KeePass, specifically because of its open source state.

IMO, <span class="bold">KeePass</span> is the best free password manager. I use it and I recommend it to others. Very good open source software with powerful features. Just look at KeePass features (from official website):
- Strong Security
- Multiple User Keys
- Portable and No Installation Required, Accessibility
- Export To TXT, HTML, XML and CSV Files
- Import From Many File Formats
- Easy Database Transfer
- Support of Password Groups
- Time Fields and Entry Attachments
- Auto-Type, Global Auto-Type Hot Key and Drag&Drop
- Intuitive and Secure Clipboard Handling
- Searching and Sorting
- Multi-Language Support
- Strong Random Password Generator
- Plugin Architecture
- Open Source!
Give KeePass a try! :)

I do something completely different.
I don't memorize passwords, I memorize algorithm to decrypt them.
I can store my password list in text file. I can take it anywhere. I can print it out.
Example:
gog.com
$50Jx1L-)dyX52aL
(and so on)
$50Jx1L-)dyX52aL -> (example of algorithm keep in memory: swap positions 2 and 3, 6 and 7; then remove any "1") -> $05JxL-)dyX52aL
You define algorithm. You can change it or conditions how it applies to all passwords.
Pros:
The modifications are done in-place, using keyboard arrows, nearly unhackable.
Strong difficulty - 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 symbols?
No software needed.
No internet needed.
Fully portable.
Easy to change - one or all.
All passwords are different.
Easy to generate.
Cons:
You need hash password list, one which you transform. So not really good for "required to stand barehanded near terminal".
Happy dance!

Be careful out there...
Hack of cloud-based LastPass exposes hashed master passwords. Users: Change your master password and enable 2-factor authentication immediately
Hacking tool swipes encrypted credentials from password manager. "KeeFarce" targets KeePass, but virtually all password managers are vulnerable

If its offline, then check for signatures of popular tool, copy pass file from known location and bruteforce it.
