Impulse purchases: good and bad

[BTM]

So you actually dealt with the process of getting a new license simply because your wallet fell behind your bed? Something is not adding up here...

i knew i would find my wallet because i dont lose things. i misplace stuff but i dont lose stuff. thats why i just got the license and i didnt cancel my cards.

i ordered a license the same day so i got the temp paper license to drive with
then they sent me my ID in the mail. it was $17. its good to have a backup it expires in 2013

Not sure if your DMV is the same way...but fair warning in PA, it's technically 'illegal' to have that backup.. you're supposed to void/destroy it if you find the original

Same in Illinois...cop was giving me shit about it too once

Oh another good impulse purchase: I was bored one time and just started throwing shit in my cart at Safeway in Tucson and bought like THE BIGGEST BOTTLE of liquidgels evar. Still eating from the same bottle today.

I also got that razor with the beard trimmer thing for like $25 or something and it's a piece of shit. Didn't even come with batteries so I had an entire remote without batteries for a while. Doesn't work on my face or my pubes, so if you're a girl there's a girl version with a commercial of girls walking past bushes and the bushes transform implying, well you get it, but the razor is a piece of shit it's just the same as the guy version but purple or something

Best: Iphone

worst: every "as seen on tv" product, i know 99.99999% don't work as advertised, but it's like a weird gotta have urge.

best: my Zed!!

Here's my latest bunch of purchases, most of which were done on a whim:



I recently got back from a vacation in Kauai, it too, was worth it. Here's a partial view from the room:



one of the beach:



I'm happy with all of the above.

Doesn't have to be a big ticket item. I impulse purchased a different gum than usual and it sucked.

Not to mention an impulse purchase can be something you know a lot about. E.g. I probably know way more about computers than most, yet still I might decide to get a new one on a whim. I'd consider that to be an impulse purchase.

Worst purchase recently... $200 worth of sex toys (pads, cock ring, butt plug, etc) for me and the gf, but we broke up the next morning, with us never using any of it.

Exactly. My GF is crazy about lotions and shit, yet she still buys everything she sees it seems for no apparent reason. But she's what we call a shopping addict...JK

Pull all these out next random shit you fuck and it could be your best purchase. The butt plug was for her I assume?
