Open Discussion: If I gave you $1000 and told you that you had to spend it today, what would you buy?

I love reading these questions on Thought Questions. ^_^

I’m going to add another clause to the question, and say that if you’re going to donate it to charity, be specific about which one and why you’d pick that one.

As for me, well, I’m going to be hypothetically selfish. (It’s hypothetical money anyway!)

I’d start by getting a 12 month Soapy Club subscription by Flowing Botanicals. It’s $100 and seems like it would be a lot of fun. ^_^

Next I’d swing by PetSmart and stock up on World’s Best Cat Litter for our cats and Bil-Jac dog food for my in-laws’ dogs. That could easily reach $300 right there.

Hmmm… $600 left.. Well, I could use some new clothes, so we’ll say $100 for 2 pairs of jeans and 2-3 shirts. (I keep my wardrobe small.)

Oooh!! I have books on crocheting and knitting, but the nice yarn is always far too expensive for me. This would be the PERFECT time to visit the local yarn store! Woot! I’d probably put the cap on $200 for yarn though.

The remaining $300 I’d spend on Ebay. I’d look for out-of-print hardcover editions of Girl Genius, and I’d probably buy a few gemstone specimens too. I haven’t purchased any stones in over a year! *Withdrawl*

So uh, that’s how I’d spend $1000 in one day. I thought my answers would be awesome and entertaining, but it seems I can’t fully escape my practical nature. *^_^*

 

Open discussion topics really ARE open for discussion. You can talk about anything you want! The question is just to spark conversation.
