Getting Lasik eye surgery. I don't have to deal with ordering contacts or getting new prescription glasses. And I see better than 20/20 vision. 

 

Also, getting surgery for GERD/acid reflux. I now have only occasional acid reflux (which is normal). 

 

These two surgeries cost a pretty penny, and only one was covered by insurance, but if I had to do it all over again, I would in a heartbeat.

My best purchase that I use almost daily was a good condition Le Creuset dutch oven that I found at a thrift store for $4. I also thrifted an authentic Bottega Veneta bag for $2 but I don't really use it all that much.

I also got lasik and could not be happier to have done it. I recommend it to anyone who is able to get it done!

Airpods pro 2 have saved my life on countless occasions, they work even better than earplugs so they've helped me get to sleep when my neighbors are noisy or when I'm on a plane  I'm staying in a place right now that's right in front of a construction site and they've been a godsend

My contact lenses but I'd love to get lasik one day as well

Good quality clothing. Keeping a small closet, but with good pieces that last years is so nice. It can cost a bit but you aren’t buying them all the time. 
 

I also learned to take care of clothing by learning about how to care and clean certain fabrics.

Ugh I wanna get lasik too because I have how inconvenient wearing glasses is (after over a decade, lol), especially during the lockdowns. However, my face looks empty and my eyes look sad without them lol

 

OT: Getting a brand-new car. It’s my first car and I’m glad to get one new because I don’t have to worry if anything is not working properly. Also, I get three-year roadside assistance for free!
