In the US, at least, the IRS frowns a bit at people over-using business deductions. "Any new gadget or widget" might be deductible if your business includes, say, reviewing new gadgets and widgets.

Your mileage may vary. >"Any new gadget or widget" might be deductible if your business includes, say, reviewing new gadgets and widgets.
