discussion Have you ever wasted money on something you only used once or never used?

[kakarottooalgo]

Has anyone made this joke?
"Well I have a daughter, haven't used her...Yet"

 

[MattShizzle]

I used to get stuff I ordered when drunk.

Clothing and some collectible items.

I bought a fight stick so I could be a Super Street Fighter extradonaire. I probably only spent less than 20 hours using it.

Generally games that I don't have time to play, including DLC.
Recently the Graveyard Keeper DLC, I love the game, I want to play it, but I just don't have the time.

 

[Toakabi]

a lot of clothes and shoes

 

[Perfect34]

Sometimes.. if I ever have to "rent" something that is priced 2-3x times less than the actual item (within reason) I just wind up buying the item for reuse. Like I bought a cheap snowboard setup when I was younger rather than rent and it came out to about the same price to own the equipment vs renting every day for a weekend and can reuse it and save next time. Same goes for tools or sport items.

I've bought so many things, especially games, that I've never used it's shameful

 

[plopy]

Now I bought “Bloodstained ritual of the night.”
I like the Metroidvania genre.
But the question is, when am I going to play it? I don't know that myself, but hopefully soon.

Has anyone played it, what do you think?

Anytime there is a sale on steam. I always just assume I'm going to want the games eventually so I might as well buy it now while the price is low.

 

[ballsman]

i bought a fleshlight and found out i preferred using my hands after using it

 

[Here's Johnny]

Oh man everyone is making these cool drone videos - that looks super fun!
- buys drone
Oh, hm.. it didn't come with a camera, and the controls are kinda hard with this.. Oh, I can easily attach a gopro? And these special googles will allow me to fly better?
- buys gopro & headset/goggles

Oh, man, interesting gift.
Speaking as a carpenter.

I bought them because my cooking knives were dull.
Speaking as someone who doesn't cook.
When he first got the gift in his hands he was like, "Dude, what did you get me, a brick?" and I was like, "Sorta."

 

[Berzz]

yikes, a lot.... my nintendo switch comes to mind, cheap steam games, my slow cooker .... and many more things

There's nothing like a brick as a gift

 

[Teaspoon]

Do hookers count?

 

[lszc]

I don't know if buying a bunch of games and not playing them counts......
