What's been your most valued purchase in the past 12 months?

[Azraele]

A vasectomy. Took 3 different doctors to finally get it done.

You can't post that without giving us the story behind it.

 

[zCypher]

new computer, car parts.

E46 M3, love driving it. It's been a long time coming, I've wanted one since 2002.

50in plasma TV

 

[Wyndru]

New windows throughout our whole house. Such a big difference from 60 year old and current tech windows, even our AC bill went way down, so I'm hoping heat will also see decent savings.

 

[CptCrunch]

A house

 

[Riverhound777]

My Pioneer KRP-500m. Might have been a little more than 12 months, can't remember. Love that thing though.

Pannasonic TC-P50G10
2x Dell 2209WA's
iphone 3GS I got last August to replace my 3G on T-Mobile.

 

[GodlessAstronomer]

iPhone

I feel sorry for you.

 

[HardcoreRobot]

new car

 

[PricklyPete]

Our latest dog...

Gold and Silver Bullion. Hands down best investment decision I have made.

Second would be the money we spent on my wife's sister's wedding. That was awesome and well worth the work and the money.

Thirdly is anything else that goes to my kids, doesn't matter what it is. I love them to death and any money spent on their schooling, clothes, entertainment or food is well worth it.

[xSauronx]

my blackberry curve 8330. yes, its old, and not a great phone...but im with us cellular so the smartphone choices are limited, and it beats the pants off my damn samsung delve that i had.

Fiancée and I are paying for our own wedding so I haven't really bought anything "big" in a while, but I did finally buy a handgun:

Soon after the wedding this summer I'll be getting a new car finally.
