I spent too much money on a vice for a few years... which led to spending money on collecting retarded things like hockey cards and MUSE albums. Fun times.

Seriously. What good is a ₤220 album with 4 songs on it?

I have like eight different pairs of glasses in different styles plus prescription sunglasses. I have nice, expensive ones and cheaper ones that work with different outfits. I hate wearing glasses, but if I have to wear them, I want to wear them right c:

I also spend a ton of money on lip gloss and other cosmetics and have been known to drop hundreds of dollars on camera lenses, lol.

Well, car insurance isn't stupid but I spend a lot on that (no I won't say how much exactly but I will say I could have got a 3DS and a couple of games for the same price). I got train tickets so I could get to see my GF for about a week (round trip; about the same price as car insurance).

Last month though I shelled out roughly $175 or so on a Power Glove, NES and, 2 games. I won't spend on food though which is where the stupidity come into play. Right now I should probably go out and spend 2 - 5 dollars on a taco or a couple of burgers...Buuuuuuuuuuut I'll probably not do that. However I will likely be spending $25 or more at DK-Oldies so I can get some boxes and/or manuals for my SNES/ NES games when I get back from my GF's place later this month or, early next month.

:p Got inebriated one night and downloaded the DLC characters for Mortal Kombat...even though I had rented it and ended up taking it back 2 days later.

Yeah...probably the worst-spent $15 of my life. :p

A Portal Gun, to cheer myself up after being dumped (though considering it won't arrive until late May, it's also going to celebrate the end of my exams)

And my David Tennant Doctor Who coat (which I think may have contributed to my being dumped in the first place)

Computer games, definately. God help me when I go on summer break. I won't have any more money, and I'll have a lot of time. I'll just have to make damn sure I play every single one of my games TO DEATH in order to avoid getting bored and buying new ones.

Sometimes, incredibly expensive rum calls to me, and I can't help but answer. £10-20 a bottle, but cap'n morgans be worth it, aye.

I like to own games myself. I've rented a couple of times, but I hate that feeling of having to rush to complete a game.

We spend too much on games and books. And ordering in food instead of cooking ourselves. Sam works in a Government office, but I (Sam's twin) manage a store in the mall and when I get bored I wander off to get an overpriced drink or my biggest weakness, A&W onion rings.

Other than that we're really rather good with our money.

Oh yah, it's fun :D!

Good smokes and some smooth Cola while playing a few hours of WoW... ah ultimate stress reliever for me.

But it's all stuff that's slowly killing me so pretty dumb I guess haha
