Initial investment is huge bill, but it pays itself off than monthly water bill.
Also, the water is clean.

A decent blender. Not anything industrial like a Vitamix, it's a Magimix which was about half as much but still durable and has replaceable parts. It's fine for what I need and is lasting much longer than the pile of crap I had before.
Vacuum pack bags for clothes is another one. I like to keep my wardrobe seasonal but I don't have much space, so packing it down helps.
Also anything reusable: PTFE/silicone baking sheets, rechargeable batteries, reloadable floss handles. All of these have saved recurring purchases, money over time and reduced waste (which made me feel good.)
I grabbed this Vitamix 3600 plus at a thrift store a couple years ago. I'm not sure how old it is, somewhere in the 50 year range I believe. Best blender I've ever owned and you can sometimes find them for like $30usd.

Nothing really fancy here but:
- Clevo NV41MZ Laptop, a beast compared to my stupid T495 thinkpad and corebootable! Very hard to find.
- my roadbike, its very classy 2001 stuff, Campagnolo Daytona (this series doesnt even exist anymore) but its fast as hell and looks great. Just love racing through the streets
- that damn Jack&Jones Winter jacket I got 5 years ago. Already had a burn hole from fireworks, but apart from that I went through so much with it and its still like new.

Got myself a samaung galaxy active a couple months back for like 20$ off ebay. Its a nice reminder to keep my body moving and helps lose some of the weight I put up over the years. I do however keep it offline now and just manually record my info for privacy sake. Looking to get a casio royal as a more general watch for myself this christmas and keep my active as a workout watch instead
my futon mattress. custom made to my specific requirements. worked well for the last 20 years.

Glerups. I wear them all day
Ski goggles. They protect your eyes in the heart of winter from freezing winds and keep your glasses from fogging up or getting wet. They're great for stopping snow blindness too. 10/10
