I thought this would be a fun thread, because who doesn't like buying new stuff?
What odd-ball Items have you bought on a whim for Flite Fest or other R/C events that ended up being a good investment?
USB rechargeable headlamp - So many ways to charge - no batteries needed. Good for working in a tent...or not twisting an ankle tripping over tent lines or field ruts. I used the red-light function of this during my night flights while working on my PPL (older airplanes)

USB rechargeable camping lamp - great little lamp that lit up my whole 12x12 tent last year. Have used in multiple power outages at home, and doubles as a battery bank.

Small Generator - I got mine for $350 shipped a few years back. Have only used it at flite fest, but good knowing in the event of a natural disaster that you can run a few things around the house. Dont have the money? Bring an extension cord. Your neighbor will likely have one, and you can buy them food or gas in return
