    It was my first car. A brand new, 1978 Honda Civic. I loved that car! It ran great till my ex killed it....sigh.

    Aside from my truck would be a $250 Dooney and Bourke purse (and sadly that was the sale price) but I have carried it almost daily for the last 2.5 years at least.

    it is not the most expensive thing and not an "item", but because it is an ongoing expense and just for ME and something only I benefit from, I would say having a personal trainer. And if I keep using her, it could end up being the most expensive thing I've done for myself. LOL

    My Macbook Pro
    My Canon T2i
    The SUP board I recently ordered...

    I'm hard to buy gifts for because if I really want it I usually buy it for myself. I have little self control in that way lol

    well apart from the boring stuff like house, car etc. I bought a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes this year. They were £480 ($780) :)

    A car, or, if you count the money cumulatively, rent. One of those is an absolute necessity, the other is more-or-less a necessity since I have lived places with limited public transportation. Other than those, probably one of the laptops I've purchased over the years, all of which have been used heavily in my academic/professional life.

    It would have to be that blue thing in my ticker..Trans Am........ Totally inappropriate gas guzzling Fast Car. I bought it to drive back and forth to work, so my wife can keep the mini van at home for her and the kids. HEY this one has a back seat the next one probably will not!!

    My home and my masters degree. I will be paying for both for a loooooong time, but in the long run those are probably the two most valuable things I could have ever purchased for myself!
