The Brooks England B17 saddles are really popular for your type of riding. My wife has one, and she likes it.
So they aren't cheap, but my two favorite things are my Brooks B17 and Whites Industries Freewheel. They add just a tiny bit of comfort, but when I ride bikes that cost twice as much as mine but don't have these two things I feel it. I put these on a singlespeed that cost 300€ new so these two items are about as expensive as the rest, but they transformed a cheap bicycle into my daily commuter of five years.
If you want cheap and little I'd say a bottle mount if you don't have one yet and a phone holder to use for navigation. Cycling really opened up to me once phone navigation became reliable, before that I only really rode either known or short routes to make sure I could find my way back. Today I am not afraid of venturing out several days into unknown territory because I know I can find my way back. The bottle holder is obvious, even though I took mine off in the meantime so I could better carry it up the stairs to my apartment.
