Your last splurge purchase?

• justincredible

  

  Since I'm an old man, my latest splurge was on a new Le Crueset enameled cast iron dutch oven. I borrowed one from a co-worker to use as a deep fryer and it sold me on buying one for myself. We went the outlet route, and spent less than half what you would buying it at a regular retailer.

  I'm pretty happy with that these days. Only wish I'd invested more.
  
  I hit big on Monero, too, which has spiked in recent days.

  Feeling pretty happy about these "splurges" at the moment (I mean, I didn't actually "buy" anything, but you know).

  We're getting ready to install a paver driveway. The price makes me want to throw up, but our driveway needs replaced and if you're gonna spend that much what's a few more grand?

  I bought a pair of way too expensive shoes a week or two ago. Now they will sit in my closet because I have nowhere to wear them.

  I just got one as well, though I didn't buy it. A friend saw someone at her office throwing out one that was still in the box. Gave it to my wife to give to me in case I wanted it.
  
  
  
  I'm not that much of a gamer, but I wasn't going to turn it down. It's really pretty nice, and I now get why people like them after pounding on the keys for a bit, though I think all of these mechanical keyboards are insanely overpriced.

  Did get a laptop so I could post on the OC under 2 IP addresses. Kidding.
  
  
  But I did get two very good seats for an upcoming Guns and Roses concert!

  I didn't purchase it, but got a bottle of 16 year old single malt Lagavulin from a buddy.

  My last big splurge was a trip to key west for some fishing. my next one is probably a membership to the country club i've been golfing at as my buddies guest for the last 2 months.

  Just ordered another keyboard (same model) from Massdrop. It's $10 cheaper with no shipping or tax. After ordering I found out it won't ship until December 22nd. *fart noise*

  I told myself I was going to take it easy this year. Last year I went to two each of DS, CS and WS games. Spent a fortune. So one game per series is me "taking it easy" I guess, lol.
