In terms of bike stuff, not stuff you buy in the supermarket, that’d get a bit dull ..
If you buy bike stuff in a supermarket on the other hand ..

I tend to or have tended to buy something different whenever I’ve bought another of something mostly either because the previous thing wasn’t right or I wanted to try something else

Some stuff I’ve ended up just repeat purchasing with little thought like:
-ODI Rogue grips
-Superstar brake pads (yes really)
-Shimano M520 SPDs

them things with 2 wheels……

EA70 Monkey bars, SDG Belair saddles, Thomson posts and stems, Michelin tubes. Lost count of how many ive bought and sold. Just standard, great for the money, should come specced on all new bikes.

Can I just mention Beer?

Apart from that SRAM chains and another ODI grip fan.

Sram chains, Saint cranks, Michelin comp16s/maxxis highrollers.

Had that setup on the front of one bike, thought if felt nice, so bought the same for the hardtail….

Nearly all the things I used to buy without thinking, I’ve been questioning recently.

Flite Saddles? They’ve changed the design, but the new one’s ok.
SRAM chains? I keep breaking powerlinks but, grudgingly, they still seem like the best choice
Conti tyres? Changing tyres around doesn’t need further explanation.
FSA headsets? Hope have split crown race and work really well for me
Specialized gloves? BG gel doesn’t seem to make much difference so I get anything that feels comfy
Specialized shoes? The new ones soles crack in < 1 year for me, so I may go Shimano

Doesn’t leave a lot.

Park pre-glued patches and Hope hubs are about it.
