What to buy! (GENERAL) - Blu-ray Forum

what to buy what to buy.

So, I have a LOT of things I need to buy (once I actually have a well paying job). But I'm stuck at a crossroads right now.

I have money that is burning a hole in my pocket! So... What should I buy lol. Besides donations to other people that is. Anyone have any cool stuff to suggest?

And no, I'm not going to save it, that is the WORST idea ever!

What are you talking about?

Lol... Superman Cape. That could come in handy

I like the outfit Incredipony, I'll look into it.

I'm just bored at work, surfing Ebay/Amazon/other online retailers, and I want to buy something... Just don't know what lol It's incredibly open ended

Speedy or Speedo? Being a European I have an extensive selection of slightly used Speedos, if anyone is interested in purchasing some quality used "beach pouches"

I'm a college student. I just don't like saving money. I'm an engineer, so I like my toys

Ramen Noodles! You can never go wrong buying those, you can prepare them millions of different ways.

camper · 03-26-2008, 06:43 PM

Buy a zippo lighter, fill it with fuel, and take whatever change you have left from the purchase and hold it against a newly lit flame.

That way, the money is expended, and the engineer in you can have fun putting your new 'toy' to use. Likewise, if you have any other scientific bent in you, than you could entertain that by examining how long it takes to burn, and what colors the fire turns.

Don't college kids drink and do drugs anymore????? geesh..... today's youth boggles my mind........

ecnelis · 03-26-2008, 07:18 PM

I got bored of drinking and drugs aren't my style

Then again, Bevmo does have 90+ point wines on sale for about $7 a bottle... mmMMmm Rhone and Bordeaux region!

but THATS a different story.

groovyone · 03-26-2008, 07:20 PM

When I was an engineering student I was too broke thanks to paying for school. That's why I got all my toys after I got a decent job.

It sounds like you need to start shopping for a good wine fridge..... be careful, some are loud and innefficient..... get yourself a good 20-30 bottle capacity wine fridge, and start collecting wines on the cheap, and storing them until they peak.......

Wine is a hobby like anything else...... keep it away from drunk roommates though!

When I was an engineering student I was too busy having fun, that's why I got a business degree.... fortunately it all worked out!

HAHAHA. One of the CEs in my dorm switched to History. Of course, I think only a semester later, he was history. (Not at the school. He was not dead.)

When I was in college we were concerned about the next nickel pitcher night at Biddy Mulligans in Chicago. Can't imagine all of us shopping for wines and looking at scores...

Just saying, college was different then.

ecnelis · 03-26-2008, 07:47 PM

it's pretty similar to what you remember. I'm just 22, a 5th year and have a somewhat sophisticated pallate. I'll look into a decent wine fridge. The only problem is I'm moving soon. From good Ol SLO, CA to Phoenix, AZ *sigh* ahh well

Beta Man · 03-26-2008, 07:53 PM

yeah.... wine fridge full of Malbec, Chianti, and other "blind buys" is a great thing.
