What would you do with an extra 1000? I like buying a lot of stuff for a small price, like at ross or good will and I loooove clothes shopping but I need to lose another 20 before I go spend money on clothes...

What would you do? Or where would you go?

    My elliptical broke in January, I can't afford a new one. $1000 would just about cover the cost of a new one!

    That being said, I just spent more than that trying to get a little ahead on bills. Thanks to tax returns!

    I wish I could be financially responsible and say I'd pay bills or give to charity but I'd probably end up with $1000 worth of shoes!

    Oh my gosh.
    I would probably get an outfit or two.
    Some video games, because I am a nerd.
    & I would be on eBay. A lot. I'm so addicted to that website.
    So I guess...shopping in general! :]

    I would go treasure hunting at Goodwill(s) Not because I have to, but because I can (more fun when that is the case :-)

    I think I would honestly put it away so that I could use it towards school.

    I'm running a currency converter extension in my web browser and wondered why someone posted a topic titled "£618.89" :wink:

    Well, If I had $1000 for free I'd put it on red when I go to Vegas in a couple of weeks. You never know!

    I would get a gym member ship for a year ($120)
    some fitness shoes (30-50$)
    some new fitness clothes (about 100 dollars worth)
    200 dollars worth of silly groceries
    100's dollar random
    and 430 or whatever is left to buy new clothes when im skinny (at good will, and ross )

    I'd figure out how to keep the IRS from taking half of it. Wait is this a gift, compensation, after tax (woo hoo!), inheritance (also woo hoo)...etc.

    if someone just handed me a grand on the street?

    I'd buy the plyometric client set I've been eyeing. It's a cool set, but it's like 650 bucks, and I can't really justify it since you can technically do everything without it for most clients.
