My riding lawn mower. I don't have a huge amount of property, but without my riding lawn mower it takes me about three hours to do what I can do in one hour or so on my riding lawn mower. My weekends are so precious to me and yard work is not something I enjoy so I honestly couldn't do without the riding lawn mower. View Quote This is my favorite, It use to take me an hour just to mow my lawn. Bought a rider, 46" cut and I can cut my lawn in less than 25 minutes, now I can mow, weed wack, leaf blow, etc in the same hour it use to take me to mow. Plus my rider has a cup holder |

I would gladly pay that so the chief sammich maker is happy. Quality is never cheap.

To echo a couple of other posts...1000 thread count sheets, and Smart Wool socks. Also have a SW hoodie and a pair of tights for under my pants in winter.

Quoted: Yeti cup View Quote Sorry, but am not being really original right now - and have been royally spoiling myself for too long. Smart Phone was probably the most life changing. But backlit kindle is sweet as hell to read on at night. Smartwool for years here. Temperpedic almost as long. Good shoes in general. Do enjoy my wireless headphones. Not under $500-but suppressors. Definitely not under $500 - thermal optics. |

View Quote Posts like this really make me curse my feet. I'd love to be able to buy comfortable, long lasting socks, but they only make them for "normal" sized people. Makes me want to find the material and learn how to sew. |

Expensive tires ($75-$100 each) for my bicycle. I'd rather pay more for a good ride feel than less money for a harder ride.
Quality eyewear. I hate the feel of cheap sunglasses. |

Press pot for coffee.
You could take away pretty much all of my "nice things," make me drive a scooter and put me in a tent, and I'd be OK. I'd be the grumpiest human in the state if you took away my press pot or tried to make me drink some other shit kind of coffee right when I get up. |

Try some Darn Tough socks from Vermont.
lifetime Warranty. Tops stretch out? New pair. Holes in them? New pair. |

Ex Officio Give and Go Boxer Briefs - incredible. I will never own another pair of cotton underwear again.
Darn Tough socks - I've had Thorlos and SmartWool, but prefer Darn Tough. You cannot beat their return policy either. Salomon shoes with Superfeet Green inserts - I have high arches and never knew what "comfortable" was until I found this combo. Charmin Ultra Strong - accept no substitutes. Life's too short for sandpaper or transparent paper. Oakley and Rudy Project eye pro - the cheap stuff will never grace my face again. |

Smart Wool socks. I can never go back to cheap socks now. Was going to post the exact thing. Love mine. Bought them last winter and thought they might be too hot come summer time but nope they are great and I wear them everyday. I've heard about these. 'splain My socks are purchased in packs of 6 pairs, wrapped in plastic, for $10. Am I doing it wrong? Yup. But get ready to pay $15-20 per pair of socks. They last forever though, I have smartwool socks that are over 5 years old. I use the medium hiking socks with a liner when backpacking. Darn Tough socks are also very high quality with a lifetime guarantee. I wore about 4 pair thin on the bottoms over a few years, mailed them back and they were replaced with brand new socks. Forever socks! |

La Perla bras. In addition to everyday ones, I've had at least one La Perla since I was 21. Not to appear coarse or anything, but $500+ to hold your tits up? Sorry, in my book that is money well spent The world can go to hell as long as the tits are still up!! For me: DVR Can't live without it now. Quality tools. Tired of cheap shit breaking. Premium Fuel in my '15 Mustang GT. It just runs so much better. The wife: Getting her nails done every two weeks. Getting her hair done every 3 to 5 months DVR Boob job. Getting them redone every 10 years. We're over due by a year. And now she has discovered "The cleaning lady". I'm afraid it's going to become permanent. |

Smart Wool socks. I can never go back to cheap socks now. I've wore SW socks for probably ten years, loved them. I must have developed some kind of wool allergy, because they irritate the hell out of my feet now. I'm bummed. Did you change lotion or detergents or something? Allergic reactions to wool are almost unheard of. Nope. Maybe "allergic" wasn't the right word, but I put them on and a half hour later my feet are itching like crazy. I never have been able to tolerate most wool clothes against my skin, but the Merino in SW didn't used to bother me. |

I pay $50 per month for 30mbps and only get that between 0100 and 1700. At 1800 I only get .5 to 1mbps at best. Sometimes it slows down bad enough Speedtest times out on the ping. It was fine until New Wave bough out the old ISP and started selling 50-100mbs packages overnight. They sold a shit ton of bandwidth they don't have and laugh all the way to the bank while they fuck over their customers. They're a monopoly for broadband of course so I don't expect any change in that anytime soon. I hate you guys that have fiber. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

While they are extremely comfortable, Smart wool isnt durable enough for me for what they cost. I ruined two pairs in a single 10 day backpacking trip. EuroS are where its at for wool socks IMO. Really? I've got pairs that are three years old and still holding up fine. I have a tendency to find an items breaking point rather quickly. I think its genetic |
