What's that? Looks interesting.
The best money I have ever spent has definitely been money invested in experiences I have been able to share with others. Like gas money or a plan ticket or something like that.

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/owdOwwJ.jpg) 5$ for the Binding of Isaac. Became my new favorite Game of all time. The decisionmaking where you have to make sacrifices. How much experience you have to gather to understand all mechanics, items and enemies. And the almost infinite replay-value is just awesome.
Three digits will have to be my computer chair i bought 4 years ago . Have to spend a lot of time infront of the computer for school and this chair fixed the back problems I had before i got it.

Should I just link every Humble Bundle ?_?
Though, I personally have never low-balled a Humble Bundle before.

Bought around 9 bitcoins back when they were under 10 dollars each, :D.

Depends which "religious" she is.
Shakers believe in celibacy.
Quiver Families believe in have 10 or more children as a good starting point for a family
Having sex =/= not religious.

It's Arkham Horror, a board game in Ktulu Mythos universe. It's really amazing since it's an almost fully cooperative game. If you like Lovecraft and evening long games... It's definitively for you.
On topic:
I was recently wondering which were the items i'd be really sad to lose in case of a fire....
1) The best amount below 15 € / 20 USD you've ever spent. Hm... I can't decide between 2 books. Heard about them on a random blog and decided to buy them. Both of them were amazing read and costed Gagner la guerre - Jean Philippe Jaworski : an amazing swashbuckler/fantasy novel. Ludicrously well written. It's the best fantasy book i've ever read. La Horde du Contrevent - Alain Damasio : Scifi novel
2) The best two digit amount you've ever spent Ecology, community and lifestyle by Arne Naess. Got this book by curiosity after reading a James Lovelock one and was a great answer to some inner questions.
3) The best three digit amount you've ever spent. I'd go for my acoustic Guild guitar. I don't know if it was a good deal, but after checking guitars for 2 hours on the store, i've made my choice. I still didn't regret it since it's a hell of a good guitar and had a lot of memories attached to it.

$40 on a 12 month pass to the art gallery. If you go more than 5 times, it's already paid itself off. I've been there about a dozen times now. Also 10% off from the gift shop and restaurant. And free passes to guest talks and premieres.

True--but it is also true in Christian sects of the faith there is an extreme emphasis on forgiveness through "forgetting" "ignoring" "washing clean" one's past through metaphorical (or literal, depending which sect) rebirths [Usually through baptism]
So while yes, they don't condone premarital sex, they also heavily condone the "woops, my bad, I'll be good now" practice of washing one's self of one's past.
Ie--she could be a slut and then become "saved" by the Jesus and now is "pure again" thereby being able to both be overly religious as well as giving you chlamydia.
This is different from, say, Jewish tradition where they see themselves as the "people" of God and hence to practice being religious is more about being closer to the culture and lives of your fellow Jews more-so than it is the individual journey of faith that protestant beliefs stick to.
In Catholicism, you can kill someone, go to confession, then go to heaven. So long as you "mean it" when you say sorry to the priest. Hence, you can be a slut for 10-15 years straight--then go to confession, say sorry, mean it, and you're now on the right path towards sainthood (and you'd still give your partner chlamydia)

I'd have to say that my best triple digit splurge was my WASDkeyboard, which I love . I got a semi-custom and its been amazing since I got it, though I might change that after I get a longboard for college. I've wanted the Tan Tien for what seems like four years now lol.

i found that out a little late and never really understood the promiscuity combined with pro-life and christian fanaticism. at any rate, i forgot to add my best 3 digit purchase was a Das Keyboard. love it.

2 dollars for super hexagon, and broodwar battle chest.
I would also say almost all humble bundles.
|
I never bought the battlechest because I was a man and had Starcraft before Brood War came out.

€150 – that was the fee my girlfriend and i paid at the animal shelter for our second cat: ronja.
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/J34AG0Q.jpg)
never have i been so happy with a pet: she's the most honest, cutest and cuddly motherfucking predator i ever had:

if i was into eating mice and birds she would have repaid the fee by now easily.
