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. :)

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...

Gilly 05-20-2004 09:02 PM

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

Gilly 05-20-2004 09:55 PM

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.

Our above-ground pool & refrigerator just "shit the bed"!The newer pools are taller then the old ones,so I'm having a "step"
built on my deck,so that people don't step on the edge.I'm having
our front garage door,replaced with an automatic one,for my wife.
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.
