    I would deck myself in fancy new threads and hit the casino. I would wake up Monday morning in some girl's room in her bathtub full of cash and empty bottles lying around me. I work for my savings and free stuff is party stuff.

    I could finally live out my dream of going grocery shopping in a movie quality Boba Fett costume. :shiny:

    I'd probably get a new computer actually.

    It'd be pretty easy to spend £1000 here in London. Heck I make £1000 a month easily in retail and I don't often end up with much left for savings either.

    However if you gave me a free £1000 lump sum right about now, I would most definitely go online, find me some cheap last minute holiday bookings and get the smurf outta London for a week or so asap. The hotel would be all inclusive which means there would be a lot of drinking and fun going on. I would also have to bully a friend in to the holiday with me to make it so that it'd be more fun.

    If booking a holiday was out of the question? Buy a new TV (probably be 30 - 40% of the £1000 right there), buy some new clothes (20% - 40% here even if buying "cheap") and then whatever is left would go on drinking with my friends in a night out which we'd aim to forget but remember for one thing and one thing only the massive smurfing hangovers we got in the morning.

    For balancement on my living costs here I would say if you asked me "What would you do with £10,000?" then I could make it sound a little more exciting.

    Alright, I gave it some thought. If I was randomly given $1000, I would spend it all on food and a treadmill. I've totally been wanting a treadmill, and if I spend half of that on my favorite foods then I'll totally need one. Basically, I would eat sushi and ice cream for every meal every day for a good week or so.

    Responsible thing: Pay off some of my student loan.

    A "Because it's pretty and I want it" thing: Macbook Air

    Ridiculous spending of money thing: Dinner at French Laundry and a 1 night stay at The Carneros Inn.

    Charitable thing: Donate all the money towards Treasured K9s.

    We shouldn't even need money, but I won't open up that can of worms.

    I don't want to buy anything. I guess I'll just leave it at that.

    And don't read that as "I'm lazy and I want everything in life handed to me herp derp derp."

    Buy a new computer and an Xbox 360 Slim.
    Xenogears is the tragic story of how your whole life can take a crappy turn, just because you happened to see a lady in a wedding dress before her wedding.

    I think I'd buy a duck. I've always wanted a duck.
