Most pointlessly expensive thing you've bought recently?

[chainer1216]

i bought a used truck like 4 years ago.

i dont have a drivers liscence.

also: i bought a well made katana that cost me as much as the truck on an impulse.

Well I bought a pair of skinny jeans for about £40 and then realised that I have literally no desire ever to wear them ever, they are now to small and have never been worn except for 5 mins trying them on

Waves Silver Bundle software
$450

It has 17 plug-ins, some of which I'm probably not gonna use much, and two I'm gonna use all the time.

I must hate my bank account.

Ball jointed dolls. If you're not into the hobby, you won't believe how expensive they are. If you are, you understand why.

i can back this up, I've seen the price tag on these o.o, really pretty dolls though

stupidly expensive? >.> dose tooth surgery count? that's gonna be really spendy x.x

I bought Dr. Pepper yesterday. It's funny because I will probably continue to buy it for the rest of my life and I will never be satisfied...

I bought both Fantasia and Fantasia 2000 on blu ray.

Not totally pointless as I did feel liking owning them, but after the fact the expenses did cloud some of the enjoyment somewhat.

A TX-81 graphing calculator for 187ish$ that I ended up using seriously for only 5 months and probably will only ever use again except for figuring out percentages on tests and adding single-digit numbers every now and then. sigh.

All the levels and characters for Castlevania HD. I don't really even play it, and when I do, I can never find a game. But damn it I needed those maps.

That or Little Big Planet 2. I hardly ever play my PS3. I think I played like 6 levels and quit.

 

[HerefordEscapistMan]

A Nintendo DS Lite haha
and I've lost it as well haha

 

[Frozen Donkey Wheel2]

Well, I bought Killzone 3....


....Yeah.....I mean it's not TERRIBLE, but....eh...

I love all the people who think 5 Euros or a pizza fit the requirements of this thread. I'm cheap too, so I suppose I can sympathize.

I spent ~1100USD on a high end gaming laptop from a company that I had admired, that had gotten great reviews from several reputable sources. A couple months later, the problems started rolling in. I cone to find out that everyone has these problems and it's not 100% supported by the company, and I have to spend 6 hours of my life to get my computer to where it only randomly dies every hour or so. I'm not thrilled with that choice.

A new PS3 mic!
