Wanting to get a list going on of things I need because I'm moving soon and wanted to have everything hammered down. They esentially shouldn't be expensive. I suppose can also be habits or other such things that improve QoL and maybe cost savings overall

Thank you!!

I got a Winix air purifier and am very happy with it. ~$100+ for a "luxury" (health) item though

Stainless steel for cookware is the way to go

Lotion, keep your skin hydrated

If you own a car, one of those "jumper pumper" battery packs is a game changer. Can charge or power household items during power outages, is great for camping, and can jump start a battery or pump a flat tire. Around $100 at Costco

Edit: and yes, a robo vacuum is a game changer. I also got an electric mop (still gotta hand push it, but it has rotating heads and a sprayer) and it makes mopping a lot less miserable

I have an air purifier but doesnt seem to do that much and I have to run it with windows closed which sucks in the summer when allergies peak

I dont really use lotion as I have greasy-ish skin but dunno

Thanks!!
