Super glue, turkey baster, organizer (for fragging), tooth brushes (cleaning frags), paper towel, small containers (for frags), measuring cups and spoons.
Dollar Tree in my area.

I can agree with the picks but I’m 50/50 on the wire brushes. In my experience, the cheap ones, including harbor freight specifically, the bristles break off with too much force
Could be contaminant if metals were left in rock crevices

So many good stuff at the dollar store. I've got measuring cups, food containers, brushes, turkey basters and tons of super glues. If you have the store Daiso, they're great too for many cheap reefing stuff.

I like the OXO Good Grips Brush Set, also Philips Avent Brush for a Soft Bristle brush. A CPAP Double ended SS Spring Brush, for Tubes and Pipes,
