What’s Your Most Overlooked Prepping Supply?

Curious what supplies folks tend to forget in their prepping kits. For me, it’s always been extra footwear—sturdy shoes and socks just in case my primary pair gives out. I only realized how important it is after a small local flood left mine soaked and useless. What’s one item you consistently overlook or had to learn the hard way to add? Would love to hear from people who’ve faced real-life situations—seems like the best teacher.
 
Honestly, for me it’s spare instrument strings—never thought about ‘em til one snapped during a blackout jam session. Anyone else stash weird hobby-specific supplies in their kits?
