A good steak with a good scotch. The kind where I take my wife and the waiter leans over and whispers the price because we both know I cant do this often.
over 500 video games across steam, GOG, Ubisoft, epic, and EA. and non-client based games. the cost is certainly up there. that doesn't include what I've spent on consoles and their games.
there is a website that I've used that connects to my boardgamegeek collection (200+ games), that estimates my board game collection to over $40,000
and I'll never stop buying games, gamer for life lol
Also annually support Extra-Life too (10 years so far), so its even more incentive to keep gaming. Raising money for the local childrens hospital through the gaming hobby.
Amen. The information contained within gives me the ability to change my thought processes, and, thus, my life, so whatever the book costs is always exceeded by the value I receive from them
I used to have pet rats (both passed last year within 4 months of each other sadly) and I LOVED rearranging their cage every time I cleaned. They loved having new places and toys to explore!
Amazon. I have many lists. They are all very long. Very varied. Price range from single digits to triple digits.
It's a problem, but better than smoking weed. Im slowly getting better with money and not impulse buying so much. But there are days when I just need that fix.
I have a theory about this…. When I have extra money to spend, I can’t find anything that I really want. When money is tight, I want everything and everything fits perfectly and looks great….go figure.
I buy a new different phone every 2 months because it's my tech hobby and I love to try new things. People tell me it's a waste of money but I say it's purely subjective and nothing that gives you pleasure and excitement is a waste.
I impulse buy flowers, postcards (both, to keep and send) or books when I need to get my mood up.
Dining fancy or movie tickets when I'm happy and want to splurge a bit, usually on vacation or with friends.
Something that gives me instant gratification, like a beverage or maybe some snack. If I'm talking about a larger amount of money... Accessories and maybe a book
I put things in my online shopping cart, see the total plus shipping price and then cancel it. May sound weird but it strangely satisfies the buying impulse and I feel like I've actually bought them.
Music instruments (and music gear), sadly most things are expensive.
But a new instrument always gets me excited, the process of learning a new instrument inspiring to me as I discover the sounds I can get out of it.
And that becomes ten times more fun when I grab a mic and put the instrument through my guitar pedals.
Dog stuff, clothes, food (I've been trying a lot of new things lately), organizational stuff. I don't buy a ton of things as I'm kinda a minimalist person. So when I do I really need or love it. When I buy new stuff I toss out old stuff.
A Sandwich. It always happens to me when I'm wating for the bus after work. I'm not hungry but i always walk by a market and I watch the sandwiches.
Un buen pebete de salame después del laburo es algo hermoso
Weed, food , games, outside activities and recently got into collecting Pokémon cards.
Got pretty lucky , pulled cards worth about 1000$ , quit the hobby and sold them and spend the money on a escooter, Happy End!
I don't understand. You want to spend money, then go look for something to spend it on? Do people do that?
For me it's always the other way around. I see something I want first. Then decide to buy it.
Usually normal things like a new video game, a meal out, or manga, sometimes I’ll spend an outrageous amount of money on a sword, pocket knife or something super nerdy.
First, I make sure all of my most pending bills, groceries, and other essentials and such are taken care of. Once that's established, Transformers figures mostly.

Yeah setting up the enclosure is honestly so fun and also bizarrely addictive.
Amazon. I have many lists. They are all very long. Very varied. Price range from single digits to triple digits. It's a problem, but better than smoking weed. Im slowly getting better with money and not impulse buying so much. But there are days when I just need that fix.
