Other ways you blew $20/$80
I ran across this post last night. I enjoyed it and felt it deserved to be a main post.
https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/133202009/0/0/
I too have spent $100 dollars or less on dumb shit
- $40 on tickets and snacks to see Pitch Perfect with my wife
- $50 on the coolest phone case I could find
- $80 for a steam mop because regular mops aren't good enough (couldn't justify the $120 mop though... But it had a sprayer on it)
- $0.76 to crank a penny into a flatten image of a buffalo at the summit of Pikes Peak
- $75 for two tickets to ride the train to the summit of Pikes Peak, because driving up it isn't the same thing
- $15 on Doom the movie (damnit Dwayne Johnson)
- $14 for GameStop membership
- Filled my gas tank with premium for a month just to say I did
- Buying albums from iTunes... Even though I have Spotify
I get that everyone has their own budget, but I can only assume everyone has made unnecessary purchases relative to how much they make.
So, let us hear about your senseless spending and keep this going!
Enjoy.
EDIT: 100+ replies and trending on top. Thanks guys! Love the stories! Although I can't say I support each and every choice, but you guys are still making me laugh. Good break from work!
Got another one - dinosaur and Star Wars costumes for our dogs... Although it was my wife's idea, I fully supported this...
EDIT: 500 thank you everyone for lowering my productivity at work, lowering my IQ at times, making me feel both intelligent and a feel like a dumbass at the same time, all while making me laugh.
And in response to some of the more negative posts (surprising very few), the purpose of this was to build off of one person's post and just to bullshit with you all. But on a deeper note, I believe that the value of an object, tangible or not, is defined by the individual. They can gain all the support they want or receive all the opposition possible. In the end, it's that individual's decision whether or not that object is worth the price to obtain it. We are all different and have different opinions on value. And from the looks of things, it's probably safe to say we have all made a purchase beyond logic.

1 ReplyI bought a girl I liked and her sister tickets to go see a reunion concert for Boys II Men back in the 90's. I can't remember the exact price, but I know they were more than $80. I don't really consider it wasted money though, she was super hot and I got laid.

1 ReplyThe price doesnt bother me much. I am by no means rich, but $40 is not going to have me and my family eating ramen noodles and can corn. Just the interview ticked me off.
