If I gave you $1,500...

[CM Dazz]

There would be a catch. You would have to spend $1,000 of it on yourself in the next four hours, & the other $500 you have to spend on me* in the next four hours. You can't give any of the money away, donate any of it, pay any bills, nor can you purchase gift cards. You have to spend every penny before time expires, or you lose everything.

What do you buy for yourself with $1,000, & what do you buy for me* with $500.

*If you like, the $500 can be spent on the poster above you, so I don't end up with everything & seem greedy.

Before I begin, I'm assuming I'm getting this money in the afternoon time where stores are open. Right now it's nighttime and only restaurants/bars/Walgreens are open.

Anyway, I would be shopping at either 1 of 2 stores: GameStop or Newbury Comics (which is a local chain that sells CDs, DVDs, video games, and, oh yeah, comics). I couldn't do both, since I'd be buying consoles if I went to GameStop, and there wouldn't be a lot left for CDs or DVDs.

In more detail:

1. GameStop: Wii U, PSP or Vita, 3DS, PS4, maybe some others if I could. And games.

2. Newbury Comics: Any CD I can think of, even if it's for one song, most likely some Now compilations. For DVDs, any TV show I've even thought about getting on DVD, and any wrestling DVD they have that I don't already own.

For both stores, my area has more than one location, so I'd be traveling a bit, hoping the traffic isn't too bad. Whatever's left, steak time at a restaurant.

As for you, you would be going CD/DVD/game shopping too.

I would probably get a lot of movies and books and new pots and pans. If I could do internet purchases, I would get a lion hat for my cat and a bunch of comic books. And maybe another cat or ferret.

I would get you assorted clothing for your pets or movies and household objects as well.

[Deleted]

I would actually find out what you like and get you gift cards for the stores you like.

So then we can both go shopping and make a day of it.

I would buy a 3DS and Pokemon X or Y. I think that would be a great thing to have while traveling to and from work as my trips usually cross the 1 hour mark.

[Reflecto]

Myself: PS4, X-Box One, and a 3DS.
You: An X-Box One, solely because it's $500.

If the place I go to doesn't have the three of them, I'd merely reserve and pay for the three systems in advance and have them shipped (since you said I can't give it away/donate/pay bills/purchase gift cards and had to spend it before time expires- but you never said I couldn't order something that's out of stock, then pay for it in advance.)

[Professor Chaos]

Myself - PS4 and new tires for my car.

You - Xbox One

[Koda, Master Crunchyroller]

I buy myself a high end gaming rig, I'll buy you either a Wii U and 2DS or a PS4.

[StuntGranny®]

Myself - X-Box One and PS4. Maybe a blu-ray if I had a little spare money left.

You - $500 worth of Subway gift cards. You're welcome.

[DSR]

Myself - a bunch of comic book TPBs and hardcovers
You - something like 25 copies of STEEL starring Shaquille O'Neal on DVD

A PS4 and blu-rays for me...

For you? PS4. I feel as though, we'd form some friendship over the bizarre four hours after you handed me 1,500$. So I'd need someone to play with.

Alternate plan:

Renting out a movie theater to watch a screening of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for me...

For you? A bunch of trees planted in your name. Save The Earth, y'all.

[Mrs. Marie]

Hi everyone,

Hmmmm... $1500, $1000 on me would be spent in pampering a PS4, some games, new blue rays, maybe even a new monitor for my PC. If I had to spend $500.00 on you, I guess I'd get you a limo and let you go anywhere you wanted in it for one night.

Thanks,
Mrs. Marie

[Glitch]

Me: I spend it on a high class hooker.

You: a hooker only worth half that.

[SOR]

For me? I don't really need anything I guess I'd purchase a note book computer for travelling and maybe a high end television.

For the poster above me? 500 dollars worth of coal.

["Gentleman" AJ Powell]

I'd buy myself a PS4 and a bunch of games. Then I'd take the left over money and yours, and we'd both go to a strip club. Pretty sure we could waste the rest of it!

[Hit Girl]

I'd buy two of those lifelike sex dolls.


I'd get you one too.


I think they are $500 each.

[SsnakeBite, the No1 Frenchman]

I buy myself a glock and some ammo, shoot you in the head and keep the rest of the money and whatever you happened to have on you so I can spend it however I want! You don't tell me not to donate my money!

[Deleted]

Me - a big ass TV

You - TNA

[Magnus the Magnificent]

I'd but a new TV for myself.
You? You get $500 worth of dogfood for your avatar.

I'm really surprised it took this long.


I'd spend my $1,000 on a trip to Vegas. I'd find a cheap hotel, & gamble the rest away.

For the $500, we're going to the Dollar Store! You can shop like a king, but make sure you save ~$5, because afterwards, we're going to Burger King!
