Oxyclean/TSP-90 & Iodophor, PBW and Starsan, though the former 2 with more regularity.

A tub of Oxiclean and Starsan.

I have a bucket that is always filled with StarSan, gotta love how long you can keep a batch for.  Every so often I'll dump it and then fill up a carboy to sanitize it and then rack it into the bucket.

Starsan, PBW, and OxyClean.  Oxyclean is also awesome for removing bottle labels.
So good once it hits your lips!

My homebrewery uses mostly BKF, BLC, Chlorox, Dawn, OxyClean & StarSan, but I've been known to use BTF Idophor, PBW & TSP on occasion as well depending upon the application.  :)
