What’s something you bought two of, just to be sure to have another one down the line?

Something people don’t normally buy two of. Something like a jacket that you loved or even a pair of shoes.

I know someone that bought 2 Ferraris so that he had one to look at when he worked on the other.

Toiletries. Toothpaste and deodorant. I buy the 2-packs so that when I open the 2nd one, I know it's time to buy another 2-pack.

Overalls. I have about 6 in my rotation and at least 6 more new somewhere fermenting for when a pair needs replaced.

I buy clothes or shoes that way. When I find some I like I buy all the colors. Or if it is a good price I may buy two for when one wears out. I actually threw out a pair of shoes that was getting worn out recently because I had another pair in the top of the closet. The shirt I am wearing currently I own in two sizes. I have a tendency to lose and gain weight.

I have wide feet. If I find a pair of shoes that I absolutely love, I’ll go ahead and buy another pair to have as an extra.

I had these shoes I really liked, styling and color scheme. Well they stopped making them and haven’t made anything similar since. So if I see a shoe I really like I tend to either buy it or buy two knowing in time when I might actually need a new shoe the one I want isn’t part of that year’s styles.

Batteries for my cordless tools

When the kids were younger and had power wheels, the battery died in the jeep. Did a YouTube/adapter on hooking up the Dewalt cordless battery to it instead. That thing would honestly fly

The weirdest thing for me has to be an extra weed eater head. The one I’m using will absolutely wear out at some point and I don’t want any down time when working in the yard.

In addition to toiletries like shampoo and such, or basic clothing items like t shirts, pajamas or socks:

Bath mats and comforters. If I find the perfect color, size, etc. I buy two or three.

Microwave tea pot. Loved the size and convenience. Bought three. On the last one now.

Food items. I found a particular excellent cookie at a small grocery store on vacation. Had never seen it before. Bought four bags.

Anything that suits me but seems like it would be discontinued or hard to find later, I buy.

Earbuds for gym/running. Sucks for one pair to crap out and to be without.
