Big Purchases???
OK, I planned for it, cause I knew it would be a good chunk of change .... last week I had the eye appointment and ordered the glasses, including custom clip-on for sunglasses effect ... LOL .... anyway ...
What's the last (or next) big ticket purchase you made/will make??? Just so all of us can spend a bit of time day-dreaming about all the lovely possibilities. :) |
Optometrist appointment and Frameless rim glasses
Approx AU$800-900 |
dental visits. Blah. Good lord, this is all adding up quickly.
|
Not really a huge purchase (in the global scheme of things), but the wife and I are thinking of purchasing the Skybox personal drink dispenser...
|
oo, that looks nifty. :)
|
2 cars at one time...lol yes we are fucking nuts.
|
A new 'puter. My home pc is so screwed up, I can't access pixies. The content adviser is 'disabled' but still preventing me from getting in here. Bummer! Other url's too.
|
right now I am trying to get enough banked for that dreaded down payment and closing costs :)... ayup... a house should be the next big purchase (though you really do not get to own it until 20 to 30 years later)
|
The last big ticket item was a 'puter (but I'm already getting the rebate checks back!) and now I have two bridesmaid dresses to buy for fall weddings! :p
|
I'm almost done paying on a new lense for my camera, and after that, we'll start saving for my digital SLR (next Christmas gift) :D
|
ok, recent past big purchases- new bunk beds, new toddler bed, new cpu and laptop, hmm... I know there were a few other things, but that's a big chunk.
|
thinking of a new truck
|
making serious component list for next computer next month
|
Our above-ground pool & refrigerator just "shit the bed"!The newer pools are taller then the old ones,so I'm having a "step"

I'm having a shorter front door,installed,on the other side,of the front,for my mower/plow & snowblower.I'm also having the side door & doorjamb replaced.New tires for my car,etc. Pool-$4000+,two truckloads of water-$400,Step for deck-$?, Garage-$?,Tires & balancing-$?=$4400+$?My car transmisson,is also leaking.I'd fix it myself,if it was manual transmisson.It's auto +4WD,& I know nothing about automatic trans! This is retirement?I have to check everything myself,anyway! Irish P.S.We also just bought a new 4?" TV+DVD+VCR. |
