Well, a sewing needle, needle pins, some thread and a project.
Sewing kits are okay, but usually very low quality and with a lot of junk (looking at you, mini-foldable-scissor)
You can get lucky thrifting and get huge amounts of high quality thread for no money. You probably know someone who has a lot of sewing stuff who would love to hook you up.
Otherwise, just buy what you need for the project you are doing.
Use cotton thread for cotton fabric, poly thread for synthetics. Match the thread with the fabric.
If you mainly repair stuff, buying supplies will save more than you spend pretty quickly.
