£500?

I have £500 to spend and I don't have a clue what to buy with it.

I have recently bought a car, I have a ps3, wii, ds, laptop, mp3 player, sat nav, mobile phone.

I love movies but i don't think i should add anymore DVDs to my collection, as I have quite a few.

any ideas on what I could spend my money on?

doesnt have to be one item. could be lots of different items.

thanks

I'd get myself on a motorbike course including all tests.

Save it until there's something you actually need. It isn't neccessary to spend it just for the sake of it you know.

Personally my next purchase will be one of the new ipod classics, when i have the money.

+1 for saving it until you find something you really want. You'll kick yourself if you spend it now when something else pops up later that you want really bad!

Do what every savvy OcUK trader does, put it all on Northern Rock shares.

Seriously though, why not save it until you actually need something? If you really must spend it, blow it on having a good time rather than some gadget you will be bored with in a few weeks. How about a holiday?

thats actually a good idea. all i need now is a passport. is provisional driving lisence good enough for ID?

I am saving atm but I would like to treat myself with £500 to spend. I would love to go on holiday but can't untill next year. although I do need a passport.

but I have no clue on what to spend the £500 on. I would like to possibly buy a couple of things with it.

thanks

Thats why I would save it. On the odd occassion I've bought something on a whim, I've usually regretted it within a couple of days.

I was hoping youd say £88million

Dreadi · 30 Sep 2007 at 02:25

Spend it all on drugs.

Nah, save it as said above. A time will come when you want it and if you have wasted it then you wont be able to use it for whatever when you actually want it

macca672 · 30 Sep 2007 at 04:47

new rims/head unit for the car, or a new watch for your wrist

Or failing that send it all to me to help pay for my new tattoo lol

ojste · 30 Sep 2007 at 04:54

a nice watch or clothes

JDMAN · 30 Sep 2007 at 05:03

If it was me? I would invest the money or save it. Just because you have money, dosen't mean you always have to spend it as my old man says.
