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.
