Backpack, armor, main weapon, light sources, firestarters, waterskin, rope and rations are obvious.
Chalk (1/2 CP) - Can mark stuff, write notes and create a trail in a maze
Alchemical Silver Light Mace (25 GP) and cold iron weapon: Since DR sucks at low levels. Choosing a light mace reduces the cost, gives you a bludgeoning weapon and doesn't take a damage penalty (All the martial light blundgeoning weapons suck for some reason)
Dagger (2GP) - Useful tool and light slashing weapons defeat a lot of entangling effects and swallow hole.
Sling - Free, no weight and free ammo. Even if you're not proficient you can cast light on a rock and throw it 500 feet and always hit within +/- 7.5 feet of where you were aiming. which makes an effective signal
Spare clothes (varies) - Be less of a hobo.
Scrivener's Kit, journal, ink (20 GP) - Keep notes
Mule+Pack Saddle (13 GP) - Literal pack mule. Can carry 300 pounds of loot without slowing the group down. Party can split the cost. Add a cart (15 GP) and it can pull 1500 pounds.
Either a dagger or a kunai depending on my main weapon's damage type, and a couple packets of lamp oil. Not to use in a lamp, but against swarms. Throw as a splash weapon, then light the oil.
And my main weapon is ALWAYS Cold Iron to start off with. My very first game, we got attacked by a small hoard of gremlins. No one had any cold iron weapons and one of us died. Plus I take a shortbow and 2 types of arrows - cold iron regular and blunt. By that time, I'm often broke.
Canvas. Used as makeshift rope, a tent, a bag, a preventative measure against contact poison; I'm sure there are even more uses, but these are just some I've used it for.

Soap and shaving kit.
Because murder hobos don't have to look like hobos.
Cold Iron Morningstar, as it's both B & P.
Extra lantern Oil and/or Alchemical Fire, depending on how much money you found.
A net.
Forgot soap.
No idea how much a cart weighs, but it would be subtracted from carrying capacity, but a donkey still pulls plenty.
Courtier's outfit once you can afford/have magic jewelry
Poncho (5SP): Unless you're in a dry region it rains at least 30% of the time.
Waterproof Masterwork Backpack (50.4 GP): Best carrying capacity till you
A jewelery chain with clasps on each end hit with Continual Flame (110 GP+jewelery value). Ioun torch sounds neat, but "a circling orbit 1d3 feet from [your] head" is a terrible place for a light source.
Adding to everything else stated:
Hammer, pitons, and extra rope. You never know when you need a door wedged open or closed, or when you need to tie people up. Tents are also a good idea.

Smoke Pellets and Smoke Sticks. They may be countered easily, but you have no idea how many times I was able to save the group by throwing a Smoke Pellet down to give an ally cover.
I always buy a mule or donkey and name him Clompy.
