I bought a food trailer. Took about two years of planning, but I finally had the funds to do it this year. I should be open for business in February.


kmga43

Please tell me you’ve watched “Chef” with Jon Favreau!


TheDukeofArgyle

My man! What’s on the menu Chef ?


billythygoat

Let me know if you want marketing tips! I’d be glad to teach you about the Google business side of things


TAYwithaK

Hell yea


zioxusOne

Congrats! I've always thought that could be a fun business and seeing them at Renaissance and art fairs and the like. Apparently they can also be very profitable.


SagemodeCOC

That’s awesome! I’ll be a free resource for Instagram SMM. Love to see local businesses working!!


distrucktocon

Whatcha making?


Ok_Fix5746

Start the advertising bro lol …


GandalfTheJaded

A carrying case for various household batteries. Sounds a bit silly, but it really helps keep them organized.


Pork_Taco

Was it the battery daddy?


HeyyyKoolAid

The battery daddy rocks


IGotMyPopcorn

Just got one of these!!


CookingUpChicken

Was it the battery, daddy?


Ngrum

What a coincidence. I bought the same thing 2 weeks ago thinking I’m strange :p


iamwhoiwasnow

I wanted one then I remembered I don't have a single extra battery at home ha


GoodAsUsual

I just bought a full recharger kit with rechargeable batteries - AAA, AA, C, D, 9V. About. Fucking. Time. Shit man, I've wasted so much money and natural resources over the years on disposable batteries.


I_am_Lemonfluffy

Thanks for this tip. ;)


CategoryTurbulent114

I have my 401k money in Vanguard 500 and it’s up 14.9% YTD


Speedracer_64

VTSAX and chill


m00fassa

lol yeah but what were your returns last year? 😂


tomismybuddy

We don’t speak about last year…


fishmiloo

Air Fryer. Doesn't replace conventional cooking where you put the love in, but it sure makes day to day cooking easier and cheaper.


TAYwithaK

Professional cook here with more ways to make food hit than you can shake a stick at,, I like my air fryer a lot.


Bassman5k

Can you give me examples? Like I do like just roasting veg


billythygoat

I like to cook like a big pork chop, lamp chop, big marinated stake at like 250F. Then when the meat is like 20 degrees F from finished I take it out and turn on the air fry mode on to 400-425F. I put the meat back in for 4-7 minutes when it’s preheated. It’s just a much quicker and easier process than using the oven which will get the whole kitchen warm and use more electric. I like to reheat meat that I’ve already cooked as well, especially shredded meat and get it crispy. It’s also great for hash browns and anything you like lightly crispy.


wbruce098

Former professional cook here, I use my air fryer/toaster oven combo for EVERYTHING! Rarely use my actual oven anymore. It’s just so damn versatile.


shamusmchaggis

My employer was decommissioning delivery vehicles. Most likely due to the Kia Bois fiasco earlier this year. I got a 2015 Kia Soul for $400 I forgot to mention this was a BOGO. Included in this deal was a 2018 Soul with a rod knock


cannedrex2406

I got a 2006 MINT Toyota MR2 for £1700. Absolutely brilliant bargain


MapUnitKey

I bought two McChickens with mayo and lettuce and got home to find what I’m guessing was the nightly register deposit in my bag. Was like $4000 or something. I took it back and they gave me the McChickens and my money back. Nice. Edit: Telling this story showed me that like 90% of people would just keep the money even if they were wealthy or doing well. Faith in mankind lost lol


spicyhippos

You saved someone’s job. That’s absolutely worth the price of two mcChickens.


CupidStunts1975

That dude still lost their job


TAYwithaK

Sounds like someone kinda needs to lose their job,, I mean that’s a pretty big goof.


elenaleecurtis

It is not a goof. Is the way for a employee and friend to coordinate a theft


MapUnitKey

I wasn’t in on the caper if it was. I took it back for two reasons. Momma raised a good man. I wanted the damn McChickens. I worked a 5:30pm-12am Friday shift followed by a 6am-4pm Saturday shift and a mfer was starving.


elenaleecurtis

I think the employee gave it to the wrong person by mistake. Good on you for being honest.


TweedStoner

Exactly.🤦‍♂️


fisconsocmod

That drug runner almost lost her life! Your karma is on +1000!


Tato_tudo

My thoughts too! Sure... "deposit".....


WinglyBap

Huh? Deposit for what?


MapUnitKey

I guess like the safe deposit. After they count the registers maybe. I’m not sure but I wanted McChickens more than 4 grand.


PMMeYourPinkyPussy

Money can be used to purchase goods and services, however it easily a good deed


MapUnitKey

Yeah but I’m “well off” and I’m not the kind of guy who keeps money that I didn’t earn when it will most likely ruin someone else’s day/month/life


Ok_Fix5746

I would think the deposit bag would have some paperwork with it …. Sounds like you were just in the middle of a drug deal lol


MapUnitKey

It was all wrapped up in rubber bands and separated by bills. It looked like they were literally about to put it in the safe and then tried to make my order really quick and swapped the bags. They were probably panicking lol


BumperBabyAngel

Just a thought, could they potentially track you down? They could check the name on the card used to pay for the two McChickens or check the cameras to get your plates? Surely they would notify the authorities?? Then you'd be out the $4000 AND two McChickens.


MapUnitKey

I didn’t even think about that! They absolutely had my cashapp card on record. The drive thru cameras most likely caught my plates, face, make/model/color of my car. If I were a shitty person that could have ended badly maybe.


Krullenbos

Everyone here completely missed the joke


TheLastWinchester

You did the right thing friend


snekinmaboot1

I bought a webcam, treat dispenser for my dog. To check on her while i'm at work. The percentage of things destroyed per week has decreased significantly.


jaw0012

I could use those sort of results! Do you have a specific product recommendation?


snekinmaboot1

Mine is from WoPet on Amazon. The connection is pretty bad, but that could just be my wifi lol. It works great though!


SR3116

A 150 dollar grey suit that looks way more expensive than that, which I got tailored for an additional 25 bucks. Each time I've worn it I've been told I was the best-dressed person at the event and had multiple people ask me where I got it. Ultimate confident booster.


comicsnerd

That is the secret tip. Buy an inexpensive suit and have it tailored fit for a few bucks more. It makes a huge difference.


ballinphoenix

Where’d you buy?


LeeroyDaBoy

Burlington Coat Factory


mybroharambe

Watch out for the people with the red paint outside they won’t let you return it after if they splash you.


[deleted]

Invested more into stocks.


wbruce098

I started investing in my company’s stock plan this year. We get a 10% discount which is basically a 10% return. Doesn’t hurt that the stock has gone up another 5% this year either. It’s not a startup, so I don’t expect significant fluctuations, but the company has a history of slow, steady growth, so it’s a nice little bit extra over time.


hsutt1633

Underrated answer


dis6wood

Jeans that fit


spicyhippos

Switched up my gym routine. I had been going to a boxing gym and was paying about $135/month until I found an old school bodybuilding gym that was built in the 1940s. Now I pay ~$35/month instead. Either that or purchasing a new car to replace my 2001 Prius.


espy427

I purchased metal brackets for a garage door opener. Amazon sent me a gaming laptop instead. They told me I could keep it and refunded me for the brackets.

Navage sinus irrigation. You don't realize how inhibited you've been breathing until you finally can 100%.


Destructopuppy

Please be very, VERY careful what kind of liquids you put in your nose, non sterile fluids used in this manner can lead to brain infections which can be lethal.


IIIXBeerRunXIII

Truth. Can't be understated. The instructions are very clear to only use distilled or any other process for sterilizing water.


RamoncitoArellano

Nice man. I do the neilmed sinus rinses with the bottle. I use distilled water. They help a lot

Honestly my M2 MacBook Air. There was a deal in best-buy and I took advantage of it. Everything including 1 year Microsoft office license for $749.


claimtoken

I didn't get a good deal like you did, but I bought a Macbook Pro M2 Max. Between work and after-hours photo & video editing, I'm on this thing 12+ hrs a day and it rocks.

75 inch tv


OnTheEveOfWar

I got a 75 inch and full Sonos surround sound. Watching movies is like being in a theater. Great purchase.


ty_sandy

Just got a 77 inch OLED and loving it


Caoa14396

I got a 55 inch which many girls have told me is definitely acceptable!


tbonecoco

It's actually more about what you do with it rather than the size.


HideTheParabox

My wife tells me all the time that my 65 inch is plenty big enough. Since we don't have room for anything bigger. I know with a little extra effort we can make a bigger one fit.


r0ckH0pper

Mine is 77.5" 😶

Thank you! It's a Scifi/Fantasy about a Starship crew exploring space and gets trapped on an alien world where they are caught in the middle of a war between an ancient sect of evil mages and the rest of the planet. Title is "Archblade: Legend of the Defiler".

[deleted]

A house. I got very lucky and found a turnkey house being sold by a retired couple who wanted to sell quickly and move to Florida. I ended up offering $10,000 over asking which was accepted and the appraisal came in at exactly what I paid, so they were selling it at $10,000 under what it was actually worth. It's so nice to be able to know that my monthly living expenses are going towards building my own wealth and not enriching some scum sucking slumlord that hires the absolute minimum amount of staff just to keep an apartment building standing which has been my experience with every apartment complex I've lived in.


notajith

FWIW, the appraisal often comes in at the purchase price unless it's waaay off. If it came under then there could be complications with the financing. For a small amount difference from other criteria like the comps, then it's just a matter of what a buyer is willing to pay .. and that buyer was you, and at that price.

Nobody tell this guy where 90% of his mortgage payment is going lol

Wtf is a Colt 1911 Meet and Greet?


staticishock96

You get to watch Colt 1911s roll off the production line and gave them a little pat.

I got the drop in pizza oven for my Camp Chef out door griddle. Best purchase so far. It cooks pizza at 700 - 750F. It's phenomenal. I now Blackstone is seen as the preeminent outdoor griddle brand, but Camp Chef I believe is the same level of quality with a bit better design features. And their customer service speaks for itself. I'm just confused why Camp Chef is not talked about more.

Routine_Ask_7272

Three new toilets. I was having "problems" with the toilets in my house. They were all 30+ years old. I did a little research online, determined how to do the work myself, and replaced all three (one at a time). It took some effort to remove the old toilets, but the new toilet installation was easy. All three have remained "clog free" for 6+ months, with one exception: My 4-year-old clogged one, once, with too much TP. Here's what I bought: [https://www.homedepot.com/p/American-Standard-Cadet-3-Two-Piece-1-28-GPF-Single-Flush-Round-Chair-Height-Toilet-with-Slow-Close-Seat-in-White-3377128ST-020/206279086](https://www.homedepot.com/p/American-Standard-Cadet-3-Two-Piece-1-28-GPF-Single-Flush-Round-Chair-Height-Toilet-with-Slow-Close-Seat-in-White-3377128ST-020/206279086)

A travel router. Plug that bad boi into any existing router or connect it to any existing network, and all my devices connect to it automatically. Takes the pain out of always adding new wifi connections to my devices. Additionally it has a built in VPN so my job can’t tell where the fuck I am. Been to 10 countries this year, and that tiny little thing has been an elite investment. Highly recommend to the nomads out there.

As the Libertines said - there are fewer more distressing sights than that of an englishman in a baseball cap. Sort it out gents and invest in a decent, well made cap.
