Now that the year is over, list your top 5 purchases of the year
5. Nissan Versa hatchback - In this difficult economy it was difficult to justify a car purchase, but a new job made it necessary. The versa's a nice littler car, cheaper than some used cars while getting 33 mpg. A very practical purchase that will not impress any girls but.. Who needs girls?
4. iPhone - Actually, my company gave me one so it wasn't a purchase, but I wouldn't mind spending $200 on it. I use it everyday, my old sansa is collecting dust, and Apps increase functionality (keeping me from getting bored). The company i work for is also probably happy that I'm now always reachable - I used to leave my blackberry home off hours but now carry my iPhone with me 24/7
3. xbox360 + netflix + playon. I'm not much of a gamer but love the relatively cost effective media functionality. With hulu added (through playon), i'm thinking of at least downgrading my directv subscription a bit
2. Portable washer - I live in a nyc apartment and the convenience of a portable washing machine has been quite worth the initial investment
1. Sunbeam breadmaker - $36 shipped and worth many times more than that. I pour in the ingredients, hit the Express button, and have a fresh loaf of bread ready in an hour! Using whole wheat flour and no artificial ingredients /preservatives means that I'm eating healthier as well, without putting much thought into it.
