I freaking hate wasting money, but do it all the time. The usual buying prepared prepackaged foods, eating out too much, paying someone to do a repair that I could but don't have time but that doesn't bother me. What bothers me is when I drop some serious jack on RVs, boats and outdoors equipment and they go unused. It not only wastes money but shows I didn't get to enjoy them like I had hoped. What are your biggest wastes of money?

Rent tanks of compressed air and paying a boat to take me out in the ocean so I can breath this rented air under neath the water.

Essentially, I am just paying a crap load of money to breath

It used to be lunch, 10-20 just on lunch and then again for dinner.

After looking at some stats on mint I almost threw up, ive done a much better job the last few months saved a ton.

Mail order brides. Ya know, I'm beginning to get the strangest feeling that they're just using me to get into the states.

Looking good (especially is you are a woman) is never a waste of money.

I'm always looking for cheap drugstore subs for my makeup.....but sometimes you gotta go with the more expensive stuff.

Eating out and drinking. And I don't even think there's a close second to those two.

And congratulations on starting a reasonable thread.
