Drunken purchase time

[kiri3tsubasa]

Ok, I'm sure we (as in those above the legal age to drink) have done this at least one. Your at home and you have some beer, wine, whisky, or whatever your beverage of choice is and you just decide "I need that" and go to amazon or some other site where you can buy things online. What have you done? Me recently (as in yesterday) I got black out drunk, I then checked my email and I see an email from steam informing me of giving my friend the Dead Rising games that were on sale yesterday and a brand new graphics card, specifically this one [http://www.microcenter.com/product/438840/GeForce_GTX_970_Superclocked_GAMING_4GB_GDDR5_Video_Card].

So, how about you?

I've actually never been blackout drunk. Been pretty damn drunk in my day, but never pass out and wake up having done shit I couldn't remember, with the possible exception of taking my shoes off once. Which I may have done in my sleep.

But I've made plenty of drunk purchases, but the problem was it was a lack of inhibition. Meaning they were shit I wanted anyway and just said fuck it!
But my most recent drunk purchase was one of those elevation training masks.

This:

Been doing cardio every night with it on. Knocks me on my ass. Always leaves me absolutely exhausted.

Last time I got really drunk I bought myself a new pocket knife.

Zero regrets. I've been carrying it for a few months now and it's fantastic, super light and thin so it's really comfortable to carry, but extremely ergonomic so when it's in my hand it feels quite substantial. I absolutely love it. Just wish the pocket clip wasn't quite so shiny.

Never been drunk in my 28 years. I think alcohol tastes like piss.

Why did you reply then, since you hate alcohol?

OT: My drunken purchases are mostly limited to pizza, Chinese Takeout and other delivery foods.

Although there are two things that happened only because a friend got me drunk. Both times she took me to "adult" stores and convinced me to get stuff, which she paid for though. The interesting one was the first one where she convinced me to pick out like 300 dollars worth of really sexy lingerie at one place that specializes more in lingerie than... Well toys and naughty DVDs.

The last big purchase I made while drunk was a pre-planned purchase, two Western Digital 250gb HDDs and a Rosewill dual bay powered external hard drive enclosure. Good purchase all said.

Not really something I regret, it was one of those things you want but not really enough to spend money on while sober, but recently bought the Mechanicum Taghmata army list from Forgeworld while I was a bit tipsy.

You really want to make a bunch of regrettable purchases, try going shopping while off your face on ecstasy. Ah, the follies of youth.

Well, that's not to ba-

and a brand new graphics card, specifically this one [http://www.microcenter.com/product/438840/GeForce_GTX_970_Superclocked_GAMING_4GB_GDDR5_Video_Card].

I hope you love your friend because that's engagement ring territory! A really cheap one but still!

So, how about you?

I don't drink and mirror the response of Ezekiel but I'll still post anyway because when I'm tired, I may as well be drunk. Uh...
Shit, I got nothing. Do we have to regret the purchase? Does buying 3 PlayStation TVs count when you're tired and need to catch the bus?

Spoiler: I am so sorry for this.

I may not actually be sorry for this.

Why did you reply then, since you hate alcohol?

Because we're all drunk at heart!

Can I stay at your place when you're drunk?

So she took you to a really fancy underwear shop on her dime? Sounds like a fun friend.

Pretty good drunk taste.

A taxi home... Never got scammed so hard in my life.

This is why you always need a friend to pick you up or arrange a reputable taxi beforehand or it gets ugly.

Not too much actually.
A few NES games (Blaster Master, Turtles and Metal Gear - Snake's Revenge) from ebay, and a N64 console.

You have never tried a chocolate martini, my friend.

OT: The one and only time I was good and drunk, I bought a large white garlic, hot chicken wing pizza. I didn't know such a combination existed until I woke up the next morning, had some and was delightfully surprised.

 

[Zhukov]

Six souvlakis.

Look, they had five different kinds and I couldn't choose. Also, I was really hungry. Don't fucking judge me.

In my defense, one of them wasn't for me. Plus I think I dropped one somewhere along the way.

Last time I had vodka it was more like gasoline. You must be one heavy drinker to the point it tastes like piss.

 

[Pickles]

Only one off the top of my head was a Hitman absolution preorder. But Id been planning on it anyway since before it came out it looked pretty good, I wasn't particularly upset with the decision at the time.

EDIT: Grammar

 

[Johnny Novgorod]

I think the only drunken purchase I ever made was more alcohol.

 

[DudeistBelieve]

It's usually digital games from the Xbox Lives store...

apparently one night, I really wanted to play Shantae Pirates Curse, cause I woke up and there it was sitting there. Also bought Destiny the same way.

 

[Guffe]

I bought my 300? snooker cue + extras while drunk, been a hell of a good cue so I'm happy xD
Plus it was a "best offer deal" and I had put 2/3 of the price on it, and it got accepted, so it cost me only 200

The second biggest drunkbuy was Liverpoolclothing from the LFC store for about 150?
Seeing the "no postage this week" sign when drunk was a happy happy joy joy moment

Was going to post basically this.

I may have bought a raffle ticket at a Christmas party whilst drunk too, didn't win so I regret spending that ?1.

 

[Summerstorm]

I am so stingy with money... (also google would have liked me to use the word "niggardly") That even with lowered inhibitions i just can't spend it...

Well, i bought... more alcohol, sure (But still weighing costs against content and taste) or food (a good fatty Kebab with Feta-cheese tastes AMAZING when drunk).

Usually when i am drinking, i am not alone at home (Well... never really) and people would find it weird, when i would wander off to buy shit at a party.
