Royale with Cheese Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) When I was in my mid 20's, I got a promotion and got a good amount of money more. For whatever reason, to reward myself, I bought a samurai sword. Paid about $300 for it and hung it above my TV in my living room. It didn't go with anything, I just wanted a samurai sword. After my wife and I bought our house, there was no where to put it and my wife decorated the interior. I just gave it to my father in law who collects weapons. Wasted purchase.

Hey man, if interior design is your thing, more power to you. I care about the outside...you know like building a fence and all the lawn care. I really don't care if this picture or photo matches the curtains but maybe you do.
Buffalo716 Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 When I was about 5 , maybe 7 I purchased a kit where I can grow my own pet dinosaur in water. Needless to say my father was right, they didn't grow.
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 A "Get Out of Jail Free" Card for $1,000 Monopoly money. Tickets to a concert that were $50 each, just to find out that the row directly behind me was GA and free.
145B4IDIE Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 Sea monkeys or a ZIP drive. I think the monkeys lasted longer tho.
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 $80 single ticket from a scalper to a non playoff implication game that wasn't sold out. But that was my cousin's fault. She did the negotiating from the front seat of the two door car.
gomper Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 I know someone who bought a Sabres yellow and blue recliner with the Slug on it. With shipping to California, it totaled 2 grand. Idiot purchase for sure lol.
Saxum Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 A timeshare. Salesman lied and timeshare company said "it is not written down in contract so it does not apply." Then they did lots of changes were not in contract.

Gugny Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 Sea monkeys or a ZIP drive. I think the monkeys lasted longer tho. I bought a 4-track digital recorder (Boss) that recorded to zip drives (circa 1998). What a pain in the ass that was. A year later, they released a new model that recorded straight to CD.

She put Sabretooth's name on the back because he'll never leave the team. Went back to Blue/Gold the next year.
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 A Rob Johnson jersey. Idiot.
Just Jack Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Not bought, but I asked for seats from Rich Stadium when they did the renovations back in 1997, for Christmas. They are still in the same box I got them in, 20 years later, because I haven't lived anywhere that I felt I had somewhere to put them up.
