These can cut pennies. Also most wires.
Zip Ties...it helps make cable runs at the back of the pc tidy and though its a small cheap thing it can really make a difference as far as your impression on clients goes.
I also pack a set of electricians scissors...they are super handy to have for stripping wires, cutting the end off the zip ties, etc. This is the kind I use...but you can find them for less that look identical

I dont have to use it often but a tone generator has saved my butt more than once, its shocking how many clients I have ran into that didn't have any sort of cable plan and if you need to find out what goes where in the wiring closet it beats the hell out of randomly playing marco polo with the switches and cables.
Also for regular clients I like to replace the regular screws that keep the side of the computer case attached with the thumb screw type as I work on them...they are relatively cheap (I pay around $3 for a bag of 20) and are a time saver if its a client I visit frequently.
