What does $50 buy you?

Someone just gives you $50 out of the blue. What do you spend it on?

Me? I'd go to the pub with 14 mates and buy em all a beer  :) (Or go on my own and get wrecked, yeah probably my own, screw my mates :D )

I'd probably rip it up and throw it in their face while telling them what a stupid idea it was to give it to me.  ;)

3+ months of free AH would be my choise or some charity.

I could also give the $  to the designers for some overtime if it would give me the P47M and D22/23 sooner :D

Well I'd use it to pay for at least one month of AH and the remainder would go to a couple of steaks on the grill and a few cold beers while sitting on the patio.

thats £31.50 here in the uk

Night out in bristol :

taxi to town center = £6.00
3 pint beer in bar = £7.50 (£2.50 each)
entrace into club = £5 - £10
5 drinks in club = £12.50 (£2.50 bottle of becks)the
Kebab = £3.00
taxi home = £7.00

you get the idea would only pay for half a night out, haven't even started buying stupid cocktails or shorts yet.

better than a kick in the teeth though :D

And I'm sure if you talk to the scandanavians among us they would find this cheep :)
