A couple of not-so-obvious tools for newcomers:
$50 bore laser sighter. Batteries are cheaper than shooting. Get sighted-in on paper before loading ammo. Then shoot (and zero).
$3 sharpie pen. Writing is cheaper than shooting. Be systematic: draw on your targets, mark groups, write remarks, improve.
Bingo dabber to mark your shots on the paper targets. I use them when pistol shooting at short ranges.
If questioned by a Walmart ringer upper, tell her you're buying it for a friend.
One time when self checkout is advantageous.
#13 got it right. Bring a Sharpie or some kind of pen to make notes on the target.
A roll of masking tape. I am really cheap so I make a note on a three shot group, then cover the holes with a patch of masking tape and shoot at the same target. But then again I often use target with five sightng points so use those for fine tuning.
Safety glasses. Ranges won't let you shoot without glasses.

Most of the tools are okay with freezing in winter or being in a hot car in summer, but keeping separate bags/boxes that come indoors for water/snacks, for cleaner/oil/loctite, and for electronics can save them. But keep those things separate from each other!
