Test kits: best and cheapest in the area?

I am running out of test fluids in my kit, and its time for a new one. i was wondering what test kits everyone uses foir their tanks and twhere they got them?

My last test kit tested amonia, Nitrite, nitrate, PH. Is there any other important parameters I should be testing for?

In my softie tank I only test for Nitrate unless something looks off, then I will test PH and ALK.

In my 150 I test PH, Calcium, ALK, Nitrate and Mag.

I use Salifert kits and I usually buy them online.
