QOTD: buy me toys

question of the day: if you won a $100,000 shopping spree at some store, which one would you want it for, and what would you buy?

home depot. i would buy stuff to build a nuclear fallout shelter

probably Ikea and get all new furniture for every room in the house!

A Chevy dealer for a Corvette Z06

either home depot or ikea. i would buy either supplies and tool rental to finish all my projects or all new furniture/curtains/bed stuff/rugs. i am the most boring person ever.

i'd walk into lexus and drive away with SC430 and whoever came with me to drive away in the RX hybrid AWD. what a great thought.

Probably Best Buy. My friends and family would have the best Christmas ever. I'm sure I might get a little something for myself too. Maybe I'd get an HD-DVD player and some HD movies.

Hmmm…probably Henri Bendel or Bloomingdale’s and I would buy a lot of fabulous handbags that I normally couldn’t afford--Marc Jacobs, Michael Kors, Chanel, etc. etc.--probably some cloths and shoes too, but mainly bags that are timeless and I can wear forever (or sell on consignment when Social Security runs out).

I’d have to go with Home Depot or Lowes. They’re pretty much one in the same. We could put all of the upgrades we wanted in our house for free and when we go to sell it in 3-5 years we’d be able to ask for a lot more money. First I’d install solar panels on our roof since we get a ton of sun and could save so much on our energy bills. I’d put in a proper patio in the backyard with furniture and kick-a$$ grill, I’d get built-in cabinets in the closets, new kitchen cabinets and countertops, re-do all of the bathrooms and some kind of storage organization for the garage. And a garage door opener too.

I'd probably have to say a highend shopping mall like Short Hills. 100K is a bit hard to spend in one store. Maybe the Time Square Apple Store??? An entire mall would be better though. Maybe one hat has a car dealership attached.

Kohls.......I would buy everything

Best Buy. More electonic toys.... HDTivo, 8GB iPod Nano, DVDs to (eventually) watch, etc.

The store would be Extreme Machines on Route 33 in East Windsor. I'd probably buy a Yamaha R1 sportbike, a Cruiser motorcycle, a jet ski and a snowmobile. I'd also have to buy a mirror from there, so that I can see the giant smile on my face.

B& H Photo Video, N.Y.
1 Hasselblad dual back medium format- 40K
1 EOS 1D Mark II - 8 K
1 EOS 5D - 4K
3-4 L series lenses - 14K
Computer - 3K
Software - 5K
Dual Monitors - 5-10K
Printers - 5K
Bags, Tripods - 2K
Light Meters - 3K
Few cards and other accesories
Taxes

At this point in my life, I would want it at Home Depot. Since I can't take the cash and invest that 100k, I would put it all into my house. Make my shit look like the Taj Mahal... well, a mini version of it.

First thought was a dollar store, but who really needs 100,000 pieces of crap. The I thought Best Buy, cause electronics rock, but what would I do with 12 plasma screens, 4 home theatre set ups and 68 games that I don’t have time to play, although my music and DVD collection would definitely be kicked up a notch. So the toss up came to Home Depot and Macy’s. Macy’s cause they are a mid class of everything in the home and apparel, while $100k could provide the supplies to build at least 2 decent homes, of which I could sell and come out on top with @ $325K. But I don’t have a house to fill, and no collateral to start a home building business, so I guess I am stuck with the Bunny Ranch where I can live for a month like a Saudi king…
