A $50 calf stretcher from Amazon. Rounded bottom, you stand on it and it flexes your feet while extending your heels.
Cured my plantar fasciitis and allowed me to run again.

I do a lot of firewood processing, so the DeWalt battery powered 8 in. chainsaw has been great. Don't need to spin up a big gas saw for little branches.
A more general answer: used cars. My most recent two car purchases were off craigslist and have been great bang for the buck. I see no reason to buy a new car ever again.
Calf stretcher for $50. It cures my plantar fasciitis allowing me to work out, allowing me to not be depressed, allowing me to stay alive.
Bitcoin. It'll pay off in the long run, trust me.
Latex pillows
Silk / wool quilts

Bambu lab 3d printer (~1600 usd). I have managed with other much less expensive printers but they give so many headaches. This one is almost idiot proof and i dont even wink about leaving it on over night anymore. Clearly one of my best purchases as it has engaged me into what i actually want to do which is 3d design, not constant maintenance.
