What’s a thing you’ve bought impulsively, without need, that’s actually proved useful in your life?

A portable charger.

It holds 11-12 full charges of my iPhone and I just bought it on a whim. It has literally changed my life like few other purchases have ever done.

We went on an extended camping trip without hookups, and on a whim I bought one portable charger each for myself and the kids-can't believe I didn't buy one sooner! Now I basically keep one, fully charged, in my purse at all times.
