I just bought a carrera titan 650b, with 27.5 inch wheels, and i'm planning on taking it away for the weekend, i was just wondering what i'd need to take with me, just as essentials and in case of a puncture or something. Any help will be greatly appreciated! thank you

This is the most important.

I like to take a pair of pliers (if your multi tool doesnt have one) and some cable ties too. You never know, they may come in handy.

These are a life-safer and with some ingenuity can get you out of a lot of rather awkward situations.

Everything else seems to have been well covered by other posters. Oh, and cake is ofc a necessity.

although I've been looking to see if i can find an inner tube, and i'm not really sure where i need to be looking, i can only find 26inch tubes

you need condoms, just in case you get into a dogging situation

Duck tape
Rope
A shovel
Bag of lime
And cake

All these things solved my problem last time I was In the woods

Don't worry about finding 650b tubes, save money and get 26ers they fit fine.

what about the width measurment, i can't find any with the same size, any recommendations?

They blow up like balloons. Just find something in the range.
