Hey everyone...I have recently aquired, legally, some money between $500 and $1000. I'm not sure of the exact figure yet.

I want to buy something fun, something to get me out of the house. Or, some really geeky gadget. I don't want any computer hardware. I was thinking along the lines of any of these:

Portable GPS
Portable DVD player
R/C Helicopter
R/C Boat

Items I have:
R/C truck
Computer
iPod
Digital camera
Printer
Any clothes and accessories I want/need

So, the question is, without giving it to any of you, what should I buy?

Not to rain on your parade, but is there a particular reason why you feel like you have to spend this money? To spend it now? Think about how nice it will be in 6 months when you are at the store and see something really great and you can actually buy it. Seriously, save it for when you can get something you will truly appreciate.

Here come the fun police!

There's not much more people on this forum enjoy than telling people what they should do with their money.

If you don't know what to spend it on, then don't spend it right now ...

New things and interests will pop up in the future :)

In the meantime, save it or put it in a savings account :)


edit: oh, didn't see that "nondisclaimer"

Nah, don't want a display. Also, I just got a new TV and home theater system, so I'm set there.

I was thinking that. However, I can do just as good a job with my hand as well can my girlfriend.
