I adopted a cat. Best and worst purchase all wrapped in one.

A Comma 3 driver assist system for my car. I drive a lot for work, and it's an absolute game changer for driving distance as an enhancement to the stock LKAS and ACC systems. Highway miles are dramatically less strain and effort, and it makes me more able to watch the flow of traffic and keep an eye out for hazards. Their tagline is that they're "making driving chill" and it's definitely the case as long as you have a fully compatible vehicle.

Kitchen stuff: a carbon steel wok, a Dutch oven and a bread form. Also an electric toothbrush.

But most of all: a fully automatic bean to cup coffee machine

Headphone desk clip that also holds videogame controller.

Holy shit my desk is orderly now.

Belt loop clip for lanyard. Guess who never forgets their ID at work?

If you're broke, get a Costco membership. I snag a chicken bake for lunch a few times a week, and I grab a rotisserie chicken to turn into chicken salad a couple times a month. Pays for itself.

Aeron chair. Got it to use at work, used to get a tired back and now I don't. Have had it at least 20 years and no desire to get anything else.

In the same vein, a Kinesis Advantage keyboard. I bought my first one fifteen years ago and now have two more. As a software developer, I do a lot of typing. It took some time to get used to the unusual form, but it was worth it.

Gymnastic rings, straps (includes anchor kit), and I paid people to set it up. Probably the best money I've ever spent.
