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

Yes, a great example is subscriptions to streaming services that could be used to donate the forum.

Well to be honest I didn't like too much hollow knight, mostly because of the recoil on attack and a feeling of being limited in the amount of power you can get. I liked more the style of bloodstained that is similar to castlevania where you gather a ton of skills and upgrades to fight monsters.

The creator of Bloodstained is one of the creators of Castlevania SOTN.
Unless I'm confusing things.

Thinking about this at first, was immediately going to say my VR headset. Enjoy it, but barely give it any use now and just sits there gathering dust...but then giving it more thought have quite a few things that end up the same. where I've used for a bit and then disregard. From books, kitchen appliances (like waffle maker), to gym equipment (we still have one still in its box).

I saw some VR mentioned, personally I never believed in it even if many spoke about it like the evolution of gaming. To me the controls were always the biggest problem, most games don't work with them and they restrict games to using first person only.

Seems like I do it more and more often. I justify spending money on something just to use it once probably way to often.

Training equipment....
I am so bored when doing sports solo. But I needed something that could keep me fit over winter.... I used it three times or so, and now its just a decoration of shame.

A GoPro camera. Used it a few times, but the vids I made weren't good. So I lost interest in this hobby. The cam has a warm place in my camerabag and maybe some day I'll use it again.

As far as I remember, I have never made such purchases that I would not use later. I always approach shopping wisely. I'm not a millionaire. I earned this money with difficulty. This is one of the reasons why I don't have children. It's an 18-20 year loan for something I'll never use.
