If you like to cook, a decent chef's knife. If you like to play video games, a quality controller. If you travel at all, a quality carry on bag and/or backpack. If you're creative and like to write music, a small USB midi controller.

These are some of the things that come to mind.

Orange juice that’s not from concentrate, is strictly 100% orange juice, and has no sugar added. Get away from me with that cheap shit. I’d rather have water than bad orange juice.

Varieties that contain pulp aren’t better or worse; it’s just a matter of personal preference. Same with versions that add vitamins. (My personal favorite is Simply Orange.)

Electronic soap dispensers.

Good shoes. The old school Birkenstocks completely eliminated my back pain. A good office chair and desk to avoid posture issues.

I completely agree with this one. I used to use shoes and boots without caring until my feet started to feel uneasy. I switched boots and started to use insoles in some of them (specially my bigger vegan punk boots), also switched chairs.

I have little to none back/feet pain even after using boots all day. Still, walking in concrete will always be more tiring than soft floors.

Do boots make a huge difference? I never tried them because they felt too heavy and tired out my back.

Well, I love boots, but I wouldn't recommend them if you don't feel comfortable using them. You could try a different model to see if it fits you, but stick with what's better for your health. ;)
