My Oculus Quest and prescription lenses for it. I wish I had gotten the lenses sooner, not having to wear glasses is a total game changer (plus my glasses rubbed up against and damaged the Quest's lenses). The Quest really felt like a magical piece of technology, and it's really sad to see what FB is doing to the platform. I'm not sure what I'll do in the future.
Kindle: E-ink is a total gamechanger for reading. I like the Goodreads integration too.
A spare key + spare gate opener: I've been going on a lot of bike rides and the inconvenience of juggling keys was really annoying. I finally bit the bullet and had a new key made. Plus with a tiny little gate opener (https://www.amazon.com/Keychain-Remote-Garage-Opener-Firefly...) I don't have to stop and squeeze through the pedestrian gate at my complex. Massive quality of life improvement for about $20
CZ 75 SP-01: It's really fun to put holes in paper from 10-20 meters away, but my arms aren't long enough to reach that far. The folks at Česká Zbrojovka have a perfect solution to that problem.
Oh yeah, I got prescription lenses for my Valve Index and it was an absolute game changer.
Extremely cheap, too. You can get the lenses for as little as $7 + shipping from Zenni Optical, though I opted for ones with an oleophobic coating to prevent fingerprints when I'm taking them in and pulling them out for when other people use my headset. Then, just a 3D printed lens adapter (Basically free if you already have a 3D printer, or about $4 + shipping if you use a 3D printing service).
