What's the biggest impulse buy you've ever made?

Regret it?
 
A snowmobile. I already had one but when I saw a snowmobile for sale at a garage sale (really cheap), I bought it. I have no regrets because now I have an extra snowmobile for when friends come over and want to go snowmobiling.
 
My car. Yes I regret it.
Should have saved up to buy something I didn't have to do payments on.
 
My boat

No regrets, but that is probably because I was able to sell it easy enough once I was done with it.
 
My first camper.

A used 35 foot, class A motorhome.

It was more camper than we needed, but it was a great deal, and we used it a lot. And then, about four years later we traded up for another one that we don't get to use as much as we want to.

But it has always been handy to have a spare 2 bedroom house in the back yard with its own full bath and kitchen.

The only time I regret it is when it is registration time.
 
My Macbook Pro. Don't regret it at all, in fact I love it and I needed a new computer, but it was definitely an impulse decision to buy one.
 
Hmm i tend to do this alot. Not so much high priced, but lots. Just been looking at wrestling belts. If i hadnt been losing my job i would have forked out £300+ on a belt!!
 
I used to go out and waste massive amounts of money on movie purchases at Wal-Mart and end up broke. That wasn't fun especially when it came down to necessities. I learned my lesson though.
 
Lots of CDs and band t-shirts when I went through this huge music stage. Don't necessarily regret it, but really don't have a need for most of them anymore.

CD's are relics of the past now.

You know what they say about boat owners. They really only have two good days with that boat. The day they buy it and the day they sell it.
