The last thing I bought was groceries. So yeah, I'm pretty happy.

GoldenSpider@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 3y

Same. And groceries via instacart too. Free groceries and o don’t have to leave home for em

Last thing I bought was a book on C programming from Amazon. Guess I'll just die.

safetysandals@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y (1 reply)

The anomaly will be generous and allow you to get books on different languages.

arensb@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 3y

C++, C#... And maybe, some day, D.

LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 3y

Damn a lifetime of dog food is a good deal. That shit just keeps getting more expensive

corvett@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 3y

It was petrol for my car. Yeah, free fuel for life would be good.

rcmaehl@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 3y

I don't remember buying anything recently, but I lent $10 which will get me back $15 in a couple days. Infinite money I guess...

Dandroid@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 3y

I'm gonna have so many USB cables. And I'll still probably not be able to find any.

MajorHavoc@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 3y (1 reply)

It was a Nintendo Switch controller. I'm resigned that I'll still probably have to deal with drift.

GoldenSpider@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 3y

At least you get a new free one a month?

spittingimage@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 3y

60 minutes on a coin operated dryer.

You know what? It's free. I'm not going to complain.

Thadrax@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 3y

A monthly free pizza delivery isn’t bad

PapaTorque@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 3y

A very large plate of chicken and rice. The food part of bodybuilding just got a lot easier.

I bought a house with a mortgage so I feel like it already is this 🤣

Congrats on the house!

Golfnbrew@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 3y

Omg, I only needed the one laptop replacement plastic case...

BattleBit Remastered.

Having a good time, hope they don't use FaceIT.

Harvey656@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y

10/10 game, good purchase!

Gruntyfish@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Just bought some tacos, which is the best subscription you can have.

TempleSquare@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y

Close second here with my In-N-Out purchase

Relvoth@kbin.social · 4 pts · 3y

3.5mm to usb-c adapter... Definitely not satisfied since it'll be a constant reminder of my hatred that so many phones took away the 3.5mm headphone jack.

pikmeir@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 3y

A Mexican salad wrap. No complaints.

Stanmich@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 3y

a lifetime subscription to caramel popcorn

God I'd love that

Kuma@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 3y

Does food count? I was grocery shopping yesterday. But I wouldn't be too happy if I only received what I bought then, some stuff is pretty tasty but I don't need that much oil and soy sauce. I use one bottle for many months haha

sputtersalt@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 3y (1 reply)

I thought the last thing I bought was groceries (useful) but it was actually a print job (less useful)

so no lol

eta: if it's free I'd just let other people use my subscription for their own fancy prints ig

Protoknuckles@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y

If it's fancy printing, I would take so much advantage of that. Print a shit-ton of digital stuff, give posters for birthdays and make a ton of print and play boardgames.

dynamojoe@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 3y

Lottery tickets. I'm either as blandly disappointed as my previous purchase (j/k haven't checked the numbers yet) or pleasantly surprised, with an infinitesimal chance of being hella thrilled. Yeah, I'm good with this.

indy@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 3y

Weed torch and 20lbs propane tank. I’m going to have a lot of flame throwers.

GreenPlasticSushiGrass@kbin.social · 4 pts · 3y

The last thing I bought was a grapefruit IPA on draft. I'm not unhappy with a free monthly draft beer, but I'm not exactly over the moon, either.

PIZZA aw yis lucked out on that one

wolfpack86@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y

One more on the pizza for life crew! CNA we make it weekly and not monthly?

JesusTheCarpenter@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Infinite Double Big Mac

MajorHavoc@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y

Nice. While probably not amazing for health, I would love to have the excuse - don't want to waste food.

Knife sharpening blocks. Time to buy more knives? Start a sharpening business?

I am going to have way to many spatulas considering the one I replaced was at least 20 years old.

MajorHavoc@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Let's combine forces. My monthly supply of Nintendo Switch controllers and your wooden spoons are a perfect match.

We can sell the wooden spoons, to have money to buy more switch controllers when they develop drift every month.

A chat donation to The Escapist live stream, yeah that sounds good.

If it has to be a physical thing, then 196L hot water tank which is highly impractical.

pikmeir@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 3y

Yeah but imagine all the nice warm water.

Kichae@kbin.social · 3 pts · 3y

A lifetime subscription to tea and egg mcmuffins will make my life shorter, but it'll be a happy one.

RubyDaCherry@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 3y

FFXIV subscription. Thank you Yoshi-P

Two new tires and a brake job every month? Excessive, perhaps, but I won't turn it down.

beigegull@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y

A couple of adjustable wrenches. I lose tools constantly, but I don't think I need new ones every month.

rocketpoweredredneck@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

A lifetime subscription to chess lessons with a chess grandmaster for my kids? Absolutely. My daughters already high rating has been skyrocketing and my son's rating has become astronomical these past couple of months. But we pay nearly a thousand bucks a month for the both of them. It's become my second largest monthly expense, right behind my mortgage, and I don't know how much longer my wife and I can afford to keep this up.

But, as much time and effort as my kids have invested in chess of their own accord, I feel that this is far more than simply worth it, even if I do have to eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches at work, among other sacrifices, to afford it.

GoldenSpider@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y

Last thing I bought was instacart. So yeah would be pretty happy for that

techtalkf@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y

a lifetime subscription to crackers, lovely.

Hellstormy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y

Tobacco... Guess that's not too bad since I probably could sell that relatively easy

Nepenthe@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Yarn? Oh, hell yes. Who doesn't have room in their house for more yarn

Spiritreader@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y (1 reply)

A lifetime supply of....... wooden spoons.

Dunno how I feel about that.

gk99@kbin.social · 4 pts · 3y

At least it's not laxatives.

(I got Taco Bell.)

I bought Jedi Survivor last night but luckily I bought weed after, so yes, weed subscription, please.

ElPescado94@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Well i was at a second hand market (flohmarkt) and bought a plastic toy castle for my kid.

ApathyTree@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 3y

I bought 3 varieties of ever-bearing strawberry roots. I don’t need a subscription as they are self-propagating. I’d be disappointed for sure.

However this is a really good way to frame things to yourself to decide if you even need to buy it once. Sort of makes you think if it’s actually worth it at all.

Like, if I got a new one of these once a month or once a year, what sorts of things could I actually do with it? Just this one thing I don’t really do that often as it is? Maybe I don’t need this thing after all..

WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Hell yeah! I bought dank legal weed in California! Best lifetime subscription ever, especially since I live in a prohibition state! I like this thread.

safetysandals@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y

So, a monthly lifetime subscription to prison?

awsamation@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

The last transaction on my bank statement is a fish and chips dinner. I'm happy with getting a free fish and chips dinner every month.

However, later in the evening I agreed to buy my friends extra ticket to a concert. No money has changed hands, so I don't know if it counts, but the deal is done. So if I'm getting a monthly subscription of concert tickets, that's also a win.

Meowmoth@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y

The last thing that I bought Was avocados, not complaining at all!

tjhart85@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Furnace filters, so ... not really all that different from reality, but I don't need that many of them every month!

Dagnet@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Last thing I bough was 7kg of top tier steak for about 8USD/kg (converting from my local currency). Seems I will have a nice barbecue every month now haha

safetysandals@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y

You just gave A&W their new slogan.

safetysandals@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y

I think that's the slogan for diet soda in general

I just bought the game Risk of Rain 2. I wouldn't be a huge fan of it suddenly turning into a subscription model, but if I didn't get a say in the matter and the universe somehow chose Risk of Rain 2... then at least it chose a quality game.

Oh goodie, I most recently purchased Final Fantasy XVI. What's the granularity of this? Do I just get extra copies of the game (kinda useless, since I bought it digitally) or can I view it as a lifetime subscription to PlayStation games in general (very useful)?

awsamation@kbin.social · 2 pts · 3y

Same issue here. I bought an extra concert ticket from a friend.

Am I getting monthly concert tickets as a general thing? Am I just getting monthly Nickelback tickets (say what you want, this is practically a hometown show). Am I jusy getting monthly stubs of tickets from the exact concert we're attending (tonight)?

Is the friend still involved in these tickets?

Diet Coke with Lime from Sonic. I get it every day, so it may as well be a monthly subscription. Do I get a discount please?

thrawn21@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y

I bought groceries, so does that mean I get a lifetime subscription to all things grocery, or to just the items I bought? (If so, then I'm glad I happened to buy beer!)
