Title: If you had $20 . . . Post by: The Burgomaster on November 11, 2009, 11:21:00 AM . . . and you were FORCED to spend it today . . . what would you buy? Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: Mr. DS on November 11, 2009, 12:18:14 PM I need to buy a grate for the house (as mentioned in the random thought post) so I'd probably do that today.
Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: meQal on November 11, 2009, 12:47:36 PM Easy one, groceries for my house. Having two of my three daughters living with me, and both being either a teen or almost a teen, I am always on short supply of groceries.

Having two of my three daughters living with me, and both being either a teen or almost a teen, I am always on short supply of groceries. Ditto. we usually shop once a week, on Saturday, and by Wednesday it doesn't look like we bought anything. :bluesad: Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: The Burgomaster on November 11, 2009, 01:10:53 PM All very practical answers so far. Isn't anyone irresponsible and frivolous anymore? :teddyr:
Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: venomx on November 11, 2009, 01:31:21 PM An Italian hoagie, 2lt Pepsi, breath mints and some vitamin C (I'm running out). :smile:
Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: Psycho Circus on November 11, 2009, 01:36:47 PM I'd get a drunk guy to eat a snail.
Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: hellbilly on November 11, 2009, 02:17:23 PM I'd buy a few DVDs from the bargain bin.
Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: retrorussell on November 11, 2009, 02:47:46 PM Maybe buy a used NEO GEO game off of Ebay. Or put it towards it.
Or buy some nice shirts or pants if they're on sale cheap enough. Or maybe just buy a s**t ton of Taco Bell! Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: SPazzo on November 11, 2009, 03:19:04 PM I'd use it to take this girl I like out... I hate being broke. :bluesad:
Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: asimpson2006 on November 11, 2009, 03:46:58 PM Buy some beer.
Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: Ash on November 11, 2009, 05:02:29 PM I'd buy a stuffed crust Pizza Hut pizza and share it with friends.
Then I'd use whatever was left over and go see a movie. Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: The Burgomaster on November 11, 2009, 05:07:22 PM Title: Re: If you had $20 . . .

Ditto. we usually shop once a week, on Saturday, and by Wednesday it doesn't look like we bought anything. :bluesad: In fact I had $20 today and that is exactly what I did. I just got home from getting a few groceries we needed. Sure enough I spent the $20 plus more. Now I figure I am good until either tomorrow or Friday. Depends on how much the locust swarm I call my children eat. Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: InformationGeek on November 11, 2009, 05:39:18 PM I would raid the bargain bin at Best Buy to buy Club Dread, Barb Wire, Orca, and Bug. Or, I would combined it with the money I had already to buy When They Cry Complete Series.
Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: JaseSF on November 11, 2009, 06:21:21 PM Actually I've been craving some good reference books lately...from the SF, Fantasy and Horror genre that is...not sure how far 20 bucks would take me in that regard however. Also been wanting to buy some crossword puzzle books.

Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: darthchicken on November 11, 2009, 11:03:37 PM I'd put gas in my car..
Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: Jack on November 12, 2009, 08:08:54 AM I'd buy a DVD of The Crypt. I think Indy (?) wrote a short review of it a while back, declaring it average. Don't care, it looks like it's got hot babes in it. But it's $10 used, plus shipping. That just violates my moral cheapness code.
Oh okay, I ust ordered the damn thing. $11.35 with shipping. Whew...now I can get on with my life. :cheers: Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: Mr. DS on November 12, 2009, 08:38:20 AM Today I'd spend I'd combine my $20.00 with Jack's and we'd go out drinking so we can both complain the next day about how "we can't drink like we did in our younger days". :cheers:

Let's hope Trevor NEVER wears clean underpants . . . that would be like cutting Samson's hair, taking away Green Lantern's power ring, or exposing Superman to Kryptonite. He would lose his powers and we'd all be doomed! Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: InformationGeek on November 13, 2009, 08:42:36 PM I would try buying Kingdom Come.

You can buy both for 20 bux? Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: BoyScoutKevin on November 15, 2009, 03:16:06 PM $9.50 for a bottle of wine.
$9.50 for a music cd. And that leaves me with $1.00 to waste on women. Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: Saucerman on November 15, 2009, 03:21:00 PM Another decent button-down shirt like the one I'm wearing now. I feel sexy is this thing.

Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: Javakoala on November 15, 2009, 05:28:15 PM I'd buy ham and cheese, and ask my mom to make me a pizza. The rest I would spend on Coca Cola. (yes, I'm a bit overweight) I don't think any of us will be pointing any fingers, my friend. I still ask the workers in the clothing department of Walmart where the "husky" department is. They just look at me like I'm demented. Okay, I am, but still..... Ham and cheese pizza? Great, now I'm craving Papa John's. Man.......dang....... Title: Re: If you had $20 . . .

There's no pepperoni here, nor do people make pizza with any other saasage. Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: venomx on November 15, 2009, 05:53:07 PM Yeah I could go for some pizza about now. (I'm starving)
I was not going to pay $20 at the movie theater for soda and popcorn. No thanks. New Jersey is too expensive for me. Title: Re: If you had $20 . . .

Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: retrorussell on November 16, 2009, 07:04:15 AM I'd buy some more colored briefs.. and maybe some eclairs from the bakery.. mmmmm!!!

Title: Re: If you had $20 . . . Post by: Trevor on November 20, 2009, 06:18:32 AM $20 is about 200 SA rand so that would be about right for a heater for my office. :buggedout:
