Good Call. We have bought all kinds of things that we think are priceless and our RV'ing buddies find ridiculous.

Shower Soap Dispenser
and
I Love Camping Game

Just to name a few. Doesnt hurt to have a first aid kit, sewer gloves, and outdoor living gear (Chairs, tables, etc)

Toolkit! I used to haul my tools in and out of my garage each trip. Then I finally bought a small toolkit from HomeDepot. Something like 150 pieces. Husky brand, but they have several sets like it. Hammer, screwdrivers, hex wrenches, ratchet and sockets, etc. All in a fold up box.

I still carry a drill and torque wrenches back and forth, but all of the simple stuff is in there. Well worth the $75 or so I spent on it.

A sense of humor. It's not always going to be gumdrops and lollipops. :)

We use regular (Angelsoft) - and a LOT of water in the black tank. Have never had a problem with it.

Toilet paper. Everything else is as noted above, based on your personal needs and wants.

Everyone will have their own list and it will depend a LOT on how, when where and how much they camp. Boondockers will want something that would be of no use to someone who doesn't camp at all but stays in RV parking lots and visa versa. We always considered half of the fun was finding OUT what WE wanted based on our own needs and desires.

A broom and/or small vaccuum, flashlights, plenty of towels and blankets, bug spray, and medicines (such as cold medicine, tylenol and aleve), gloves for everything. I use them for when I hookup to my hitch and also for when I dump my black & gray water tanks. An extra gas grill or BBQ'er for cooking outside. A mat or something to put on the ground outside your steps. It helps in keeping the dirt out and your trailer cleaner. Cleaning sprays and soaps for clean hands. Chairs to sit on outside. Tablets or sollution for black tank (to help keep the smells down and do its magic in your tank). Also a good book to read. This is a few items I can think of that are must haves. As you camp more frequently you will definitely add more. I know there is a list on here as to what to bring. check it out. I have used it plenty of times.
