Apart from buying our 'new to us' folding camper, which was just THE best thing this year  there have been several things that have worked well for us this year:
Proper camping loo to keep in the awning for night time 'necessities'
Electric hobs to cook on in the awning, ditto electric multicooker, saving on expensive Campingaz and maximising the EHU that we've paid for!
Drymat underlay for the beds in the folding camper, really keeps moisture away from the mattresses, as we discovered when one of them accidentally got folded back when moving campsites, the area that was unprotected got damp the first night until we found it and put the drymat back where it should be!
Memory foam mattress toppers, never been so comfortable camping, almost as good as at home!
2016 has been a great year purchase wise, and hoping that will continue for the rest of the year camping wise, can't wait to get away again now!

"It's the simple little things.
Filling a large Thermos flask with boiling water for the endless cups of tea. Saves gas by reducing the amount of times having to boil up a kettle."
campasarow (love your username!) exactly that, we do the same, and have a 1.5l thermal jug which will keep hot all day, not only do we drink a lot of tea, its useful to add some hot water to the washing up bowl in our camper to wash up a few bits without boiling the kettle for hot water.
