Finding last item in a line using grep

Here:

grep -o '[^,]\+$'

[^,]\+ matches one or more characters that are not , at the end of the line ($)
-o prints only the matched portion

Example:

% grep -o '[^,]\+$' <<<'Blah,3,33,56,5,Foo 30,,,,,,,3,Great Value'
Great Value

Always like to see an awk solution so here it is (upvoted the proper solution!):

% awk -F, '{print $NF}'  <<<'Blah,3,33,56,5,Foo 30,,,,,,,3,Great Value'
Great Value
