If You had an extra $100 what would you spend it on?

It was the Burmese Python story that got me thinking, what would I buy if I had an extra $100.
(http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...0813155523.htm)

I'd probably fritter it away on itunes songs and kindle books.

A Ticket to the upcoming Bill Bailey concert in Auckland. Don't think I'm going to be able to afford to go.

I would write a program that randomly selected 100 $1 items on ebay and have them shipped to my house each consecutive day.

Re: If You had an extra $100 what would you spend it on?

I would buy 100 Powerball tickets and win the $305 million jackpot. Then I would pay tipoo 5 bucks to write me a program to have 305 million random $1 items on eBay shipped to my house for 305 million consecutive days.

I'd pay bills. I'm boring, I know.

$100 more would not be extra. It'd be consumed by food purchases.

Re: If You had an extra $100 what would you spend it on?

Funny funny funny you posted this.

Just today, yes TODAY, I gave $100 to someone who just had a baby a week ago. She is young, and has a 5 year old girl, a 2 year old girl, and now another little baby girl. I consider her to be my "sister" since her dad used to date my mom and is the closest thing to a dad I have.

Since I am also a mom, I thought it was better to give her cash so she can spend it where its needed, whether its on the baby, bills, food, clothes (her daughter is also starting kindergarten next month) date night or whatever. I told her its really up to her where she spends it.

I think about people who sent us money when the kids were itty bitty, and it was the difference between ok and not ok.

Re: If You had an extra $100 what would you spend it on?

I'd buy some vintage ...( between 1900 and about 1950) magazines, the kind with a lot of color ads, and hit the thrift store for frames .....I already have a ton of mat board from my old job at the frame store .....( I was allowed to take home scraps, and some of them were pretty good sized......got them out of the "scrap" box before they hit the actual trash bin out bacak )

and then I'd frame ads ......and sell them along with watches at the markets.....



spend money to make money ......


I've been living with Mike too long !!!

Re: If You had an extra $100 what would you spend it on?

If i can just blow it on anything....instead of paying a bill, which I would probably pay a bill or buy groceries.

Lemme think:

Scented candles or scentsy............$20.00
Green eyeshadow and eyeliner.........$10.00
Neon Colored socks.......................$5.00
The softest pajama pants ever........$20.00
Some awesome bath and body works gel and lotion.....$20.00
Some kind of craft to work on..........$20.00
Twinkies......................................$3.0 0
A giant Diet Cherry Limeade from Sonic........$2.00
