Inspired by my new purchase of a $1300 Chromebook Pixel (2015), while a little tipsy. What is the largest purchase you have made while drunk/tipsy? Did you regret it?

^^ this!!!!!


I made the mistake of just going to cash my paycheck when my buddies roped me into a legendary night of debauchery including, but not limited to:

The stripclub
The horse track
The club

It was a boys night, and my wallet felt it.

I just file ALL my big purchases as "drunk purchases". Includes all of my 3S's.

Never made any large single purchases while drunk, but "most money spent night" happened about 7 or 8 years ago. I was kind of dating this girl and things were a little sketchy. I had already had plans to hit up this bar with some friends to see this killer band and it just so happened that that same day my brother and sister in law both gave me money for bills so I had a lot of cash in my wallet......

Needless to say I woke up in my car (actually my mom's car that I was driving because this was one of the times the Stealth was down) in the parking lot of the bar, freezing my ass off (it was December) and having no idea what was going on or what time it was. I found my phone to see it was 4am and I had 30 missed calls and 20 missed texts from friends having no idea where I went.

Me being the courteous guy that I am thought there was no way in hell I was going to call them at 4am to tell them what was going on so I didn't wake anyone up. As I finished that thought though my phone rang and it was my friend Theresa. I answer the phone with a gravelly "Hello" and her exact response was "Where. The Fuck. Are you?"

My response after looking around to reverify where I was, "The parking lot." After a long pause I finally hear, "Of the bar? Brian I am going to kill you. There was a brawl, the police showed up, everyone got kicked out, and we had no idea what happened to you."

Anyway, to conclude the story when I finally got out of bed the next morning I opened my wallet to realize I had spent nearly $200 on alcohol before everything became a blur.

So, not a crazy amount of money, but there was a crazy amount of stupid involved.

Ol' Patrick Poole in college (professor of the year too!) used to regale us with stories of his drunk purchases. The funniest one being a 20 some odd foot boat that just showed up one weekend. He had zero memory of it, and didn't even want a boat. He was really lively while telling stories too which made it even better.

I have has a few couple hundred dollar bar nights. But I think my worst purchase was my block/crank for my big build. I was thinking about it until one day while sufficiently intoxicated I said F IT and sent the money through paypal. The next day I kinda regretted it, but oh well. It's just money!

I'll have to go with strippers too. I'm too embarrassed to quote figures, but lets just say I had to talk the bill down by $400 to make it reasonable.

Bachelor party in Vegas for sure...I was up by $320 before hitting up Sapphire later that night. When I opened my wallet the next morning, I realized that I burned through that plus about $200 of my own...Damn Eastern Europeans get me all the time with their accents!!

Damn. Sounds like I'm saving a fortune not going to strip clubs. Then I lose that fortune because I'm married.

While living in Ft Lauderdale/Miami area I hung out at a local pool hall and bar almost every night after work. I became good friends with the staff there and frequently hung out after hours shootin the shit with them and the owner till 4am. One night after they close we started bar hopping, and it done right you can time it to hit bars all night long. So we close the pool hall at 2am, hit another place that served till 4 am, then off to an underground bar/dance club till around 7am and then hit the casino for more drinking... Finally got home the next day about 2pm. All in all I dropped about $700 that night between alcohol, food and cab rides. I think I only dropped maybe $20 at the casino....LOL Good Times!!!

Strip clubs. lol. They are so tame. Try live sex shows. :p

I dunno about drunk purchases, but I'm pretty sure I was high for most of 2011--because I think I hit somewhere around $20,000 for 3/s parts...and the damn car still isn't built. And worse, I've god mods upon mods in a storage unit. Stuff that is intended to eventually go on the car, but I dunno if I'll ever get around to it. It's so bad that it would probably be less hassle to hire one of y'all to fly to GA and assemble all the mods--rather than work on it myself. Side mirrors, lambo doors, spoiler, bumper mods, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc.

Vegas just last year.

A group of us went for a "Daddy to be" party for my friend Mark.

Mark and Leo didn't gamble much, but Issa and I did. I was actually up $200 for the entire trip, that included food, airfare, and the money I brought for gambling. I was just doing really good. Mostly off of side betting with Issa when he went into the high roller black jack rooms and from a good slow and steady build over 2 days of playing pei gow.

It was the last night, about 2am, we are all hammered and Issa and I decided to sit down in the high roller black jack room and do some shots of Jameson.

I got my ass beat up, then I worked my ass off playing two hands to get to where I was even for the trip. I was about to leave, the dealer said I should leave as I just got back to even (this same dealer had been playing with us over the last 2 days), the pit boss told me I should leave while I was ahead, Issa told me to be a baller. ... I listed to Issa and threw down a $500 chip on one hand.

I lost.

I didn't care at the time, but about 4 hours later when I began to sober up, I was pissed at myself!
