    A scissors sharpener. You don’t know what your scissors can do.

    Knife sharpener. Sharp knives are safer. You can also very often buy dull knives for cheap… and make them sharp. I am pretty happy with my 3 stage sharpener.

    Costco executive membership. It will pay for itself. Also get the Costco credit card and be sure to use it to buy all your Costco gas.

    Spring assist flipper knife with deep pocket clip. Buy a cheap one first and sharpen it…with…your knife sharpener! It is incredibly useful to have a sharp knife in your hand a second after wanting it.

    Lemon/lime squeezer. Stop struggling.

    Pour over coffee setup.

    Coffee grinder. Fresh ground is so much better. I used a manual one for a long time.

    Pepper mill.

    Bamboo chopsticks. Very cheap. I prefer them to the metal ones I also have because they grip better.

    LED headlamps. Get some with red lights to take camping. Keep them all over the house and garage to light dark rooms, corners and outside.

    Paper maps. I have the USGS map of my area up on the wall by my back door. I also have many in the door of my truck. Free at state visitor centers or by mail.
