    I bought myself a Louis Vuitton purse a couple years ago. I saved up birthday/Christmas money and my loose change for a looooong time, and then when I got the job I have now (which is with like my dream company/career) I got it for myself as kind of a congratulations gift. I have a couple other smaller LVs that I got as gifts, but never had the guts or the funds to buy one for myself. I will definitely carry it until it falls apart because it was embarrassingly expensive, but I love it so much!

    This is what it looks like (well, what it looked like when I got it...the handles/trim is a lot darker now):

    I've also bought myself a car, but that doesn't really count I guess since it was more out of necessity than for fun :smile:

    I just bought myself a Clarisonic face brush. It wasn't super expensive, but I am so excited about it! It hasn't come in the mail yet though.

    House and cars and investments and furniture aside,

    I don't think I've spent more than a couple grand on a toy. I think my 5D MKII camera is the most expensive.

    Same here... camera gear! Lenses, camera bodies, etc!

    Houses, house stuff and holidays aside, my biggest personal buy was probably a pair of Jimmy Choo shoes - to the tune of £520.

    Must be a woman thing!

    Sadly my feet look fat in them at present!!

    My pineapple green cheek conure (parrot) - Mango.
    He was 350, but all the other stuff was hundreds so it all added up.

    As far as possessions..

    Paid off my Expedition about a year ago. After that would be my 55" LG 3D HD smart tv I guess $1300 or so...

    Other than that, I cant really think of it. I got pregnant really young and never really had any money. Then got married, bought a house and still dont have loads of extra green sitting around.
    That is so bad assed. I have to have one.

    Assuming we're not counting the house and car, hmm I bought myself a $275 Tiffany ring. I guess that would be the single item that costs the most. However, I've enjoyed some shopping sprees that resulted in a much higher total. lol

    Well, my car may not count because that was bought for me to drive my kids around, and not just for my own enjoyment. Next to that, it'd be the hand-made, custom-finished electric bass I ordered from a luthier in France.

    My laptop. I don't have kids though, so I guess there's that. Regardless, I need a laptop for work.
