What’s your top BIFL purchase, that might not in itself has been all to frugal, but long term, will be?

After having 5-6 different office chairs over the last 10 years, none of which I liked. I went and bought a Herman Miller Aeron chair. It’s ridiculously expensive, but I’m so pleased with it and hope to keep it for well over 15-20 years. If that actually succeed, I will have spent less money one chairs than if I hadn’t bought it.

What similar items (cheap or expensive) do you feel the same about?

    I have a pair of Adidas “shell toe” Superstars that I’ve had for 16 years now?

    They are the hemp offering where it uses hemp cloth instead of cotton or other materials and they’ve seen some shit.

    Pretty wore out at this point but are still comfortable for around the house shoes. I still wear them daily.
