If it's fancy printing, I would take so much advantage of that. Print a shit-ton of digital stuff, give posters for birthdays and make a ton of print and play boardgames.
3.5mm to usb-c adapter... Definitely not satisfied since it'll be a constant reminder of my hatred that so many phones took away the 3.5mm headphone jack.
Lottery tickets. I'm either as blandly disappointed as my previous purchase (j/k haven't checked the numbers yet) or pleasantly surprised, with an infinitesimal chance of being hella thrilled. Yeah, I'm good with this.
Does food count? I was grocery shopping yesterday. But I wouldn't be too happy if I only received what I bought then, some stuff is pretty tasty but I don't need that much oil and soy sauce. I use one bottle for many months haha
A lifetime subscription to chess lessons with a chess grandmaster for my kids? Absolutely. My daughters already high rating has been skyrocketing and my son's rating has become astronomical these past couple of months. But we pay nearly a thousand bucks a month for the both of them. It's become my second largest monthly expense, right behind my mortgage, and I don't know how much longer my wife and I can afford to keep this up.
But, as much time and effort as my kids have invested in chess of their own accord, I feel that this is far more than simply worth it, even if I do have to eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches at work, among other sacrifices, to afford it.
I bought 3 varieties of ever-bearing strawberry roots. I don’t need a subscription as they are self-propagating. I’d be disappointed for sure.
However this is a really good way to frame things to yourself to decide if you even need to buy it once. Sort of makes you think if it’s actually worth it at all.
Like, if I got a new one of these once a month or once a year, what sorts of things could I actually do with it? Just this one thing I don’t really do that often as it is? Maybe I don’t need this thing after all..
Hell yeah! I bought dank legal weed in California! Best lifetime subscription ever, especially since I live in a prohibition state! I like this thread.
Last thing I bough was 7kg of top tier steak for about 8USD/kg (converting from my local currency). Seems I will have a nice barbecue every month now haha
The last transaction on my bank statement is a fish and chips dinner. I'm happy with getting a free fish and chips dinner every month.
However, later in the evening I agreed to buy my friends extra ticket to a concert. No money has changed hands, so I don't know if it counts, but the deal is done. So if I'm getting a monthly subscription of concert tickets, that's also a win.
Oh goodie, I most recently purchased Final Fantasy XVI. What's the granularity of this? Do I just get extra copies of the game (kinda useless, since I bought it digitally) or can I view it as a lifetime subscription to PlayStation games in general (very useful)?
Same issue here. I bought an extra concert ticket from a friend.
Am I getting monthly concert tickets as a general thing? Am I just getting monthly Nickelback tickets (say what you want, this is practically a hometown show). Am I jusy getting monthly stubs of tickets from the exact concert we're attending (tonight)?
I bought groceries, so does that mean I get a lifetime subscription to all things grocery, or to just the items I bought? (If so, then I'm glad I happened to buy beer!)
I just bought the game Risk of Rain 2. I wouldn't be a huge fan of it suddenly turning into a subscription model, but if I didn't get a say in the matter and the universe somehow chose Risk of Rain 2... then at least it chose a quality game.
Last online thing I bought or literally last thing I bought?
Last thing I bought were groceries from the supermarket, I already have a lifelong weekly subscription lol. Last thing I bought online was a cat tree which would be quite an interesting proposition...
No, not satisfied. I bought refill line for my string trimmer, and I bought it in bulk. I had to pay at least a year’s worth already and now more will be coming every month? Nooooooo
Upvote this comment if you are satisfied with your purchase
Upvote this comment if you are NOT satisfied with your purchase
The last thing I bought was groceries. So yeah, I'm pretty happy.
Same. And groceries via instacart too. Free groceries and o don’t have to leave home for em
Last thing I bought was a book on C programming from Amazon. Guess I'll just die.
The anomaly will be generous and allow you to get books on different languages.
C++, C#... And maybe, some day, D.
Damn a lifetime of dog food is a good deal. That shit just keeps getting more expensive
I don't remember buying anything recently, but I lent $10 which will get me back $15 in a couple days. Infinite money I guess...
It was petrol for my car. Yeah, free fuel for life would be good.
I'm gonna have so many USB cables. And I'll still probably not be able to find any.
60 minutes on a coin operated dryer.
You know what? It's free. I'm not going to complain.
It was a Nintendo Switch controller. I'm resigned that I'll still probably have to deal with drift.
At least you get a new free one a month?
A monthly free pizza delivery isn’t bad
A very large plate of chicken and rice. The food part of bodybuilding just got a lot easier.
I bought a house with a mortgage so I feel like it already is this 🤣
Congrats on the house!
Omg, I only needed the one laptop replacement plastic case...
BattleBit Remastered.
Having a good time, hope they don't use FaceIT.
10/10 game, good purchase!
Just bought some tacos, which is the best subscription you can have.
Close second here with my In-N-Out purchase
The last thing I bought was a grapefruit IPA on draft. I'm not unhappy with a free monthly draft beer, but I'm not exactly over the moon, either.
A Mexican salad wrap. No complaints.
PIZZA aw yis lucked out on that one
One more on the pizza for life crew! CNA we make it weekly and not monthly?
I thought the last thing I bought was groceries (useful) but it was actually a print job (less useful)
so no lol
eta: if it's free I'd just let other people use my subscription for their own fancy prints ig
If it's fancy printing, I would take so much advantage of that. Print a shit-ton of digital stuff, give posters for birthdays and make a ton of print and play boardgames.
3.5mm to usb-c adapter... Definitely not satisfied since it'll be a constant reminder of my hatred that so many phones took away the 3.5mm headphone jack.
Weed torch and 20lbs propane tank. I’m going to have a lot of flame throwers.
Infinite Double Big Mac
Nice. While probably not amazing for health, I would love to have the excuse - don't want to waste food.
Lottery tickets. I'm either as blandly disappointed as my previous purchase (j/k haven't checked the numbers yet) or pleasantly surprised, with an infinitesimal chance of being hella thrilled. Yeah, I'm good with this.
a lifetime subscription to caramel popcorn
God I'd love that
Does food count? I was grocery shopping yesterday. But I wouldn't be too happy if I only received what I bought then, some stuff is pretty tasty but I don't need that much oil and soy sauce. I use one bottle for many months haha
Xbox Gold for Life!
A chat donation to The Escapist live stream, yeah that sounds good.
If it has to be a physical thing, then 196L hot water tank which is highly impractical.
Yeah but imagine all the nice warm water.
AA batteries, not bad i guess
A lifetime subscription to tea and egg mcmuffins will make my life shorter, but it'll be a happy one.
Alcohol! Hell yeah! Happy days!
Knife sharpening blocks. Time to buy more knives? Start a sharpening business?
FFXIV subscription. Thank you Yoshi-P
60% mechanical keyboards... Hmm, not so bad. You can never have too many!
I am going to have way to many spatulas considering the one I replaced was at least 20 years old.
Let's combine forces. My monthly supply of Nintendo Switch controllers and your wooden spoons are a perfect match.
We can sell the wooden spoons, to have money to buy more switch controllers when they develop drift every month.
It was beer, so yes.
4pts of milk, chicken burgers and microwavable rice. I guess I won't go hungry.
Last thing I bought was instacart. So yeah would be pretty happy for that
The last thing that I bought Was avocados, not complaining at all!
Gasoline :)
Awesome, free new cars for the rest of my life.
Tobacco... Guess that's not too bad since I probably could sell that relatively easy
A&W zero sugar root beer. I guess things could be worse
You just gave A&W their new slogan.
I think that's the slogan for diet soda in general
Two new tires and a brake job every month? Excessive, perhaps, but I won't turn it down.
so i get a fresh 20lb bag of ice every month?? hell yeah!
Looks like I get a 20lb brisket every month!
A couple of adjustable wrenches. I lose tools constantly, but I don't think I need new ones every month.
What do I do with a life time supply of steel capped boots?
A pair for every occasion! (yes, I wore a pair of steel caps to my sister's wedding, how did you guess?)
coffee to go. fuck yeah.
Well i was at a second hand market (flohmarkt) and bought a plastic toy castle for my kid.

Hell yeah! I bought dank legal weed in California! Best lifetime subscription ever, especially since I live in a prohibition state! I like this thread.
So, a monthly lifetime subscription to prison?
Furnace filters, so ... not really all that different from reality, but I don't need that many of them every month!
Yarn? Oh, hell yes. Who doesn't have room in their house for more yarn
I bought Jedi Survivor last night but luckily I bought weed after, so yes, weed subscription, please.
Last thing I bough was 7kg of top tier steak for about 8USD/kg (converting from my local currency). Seems I will have a nice barbecue every month now haha
Buying a guitar every month might get expensive
The last transaction on my bank statement is a fish and chips dinner. I'm happy with getting a free fish and chips dinner every month.
However, later in the evening I agreed to buy my friends extra ticket to a concert. No money has changed hands, so I don't know if it counts, but the deal is done. So if I'm getting a monthly subscription of concert tickets, that's also a win.
A lifetime supply of....... wooden spoons.
Dunno how I feel about that.
At least it's not laxatives.
(I got Taco Bell.)
a lifetime subscription to crackers, lovely.
I bought two cheesesteaks, not bad but I could eat them but frequently than monthly.
Free beer & cigs for life? Man, I shoulda bought some weed too.

Chips and a protein bar... I guess it could be worse
Fresh lychee fruit - hell yeah!
Nando's, not gonna complain!
Haircuts. Heck yeah.
Miracle Grow plant food - I'll take it
Oh goodie, I most recently purchased Final Fantasy XVI. What's the granularity of this? Do I just get extra copies of the game (kinda useless, since I bought it digitally) or can I view it as a lifetime subscription to PlayStation games in general (very useful)?

Is the friend still involved in these tickets?
Underwear. I'm okay with that.
Slices of pizza? Awesome!
The last thing I bought was some delicious Japanese food, sign me the fuck up!
It's coffee, so YES.
I’ll probably have to reinstate the iron curtain, give. That I last bought a couple bags of concrete…
I bought groceries, so does that mean I get a lifetime subscription to all things grocery, or to just the items I bought? (If so, then I'm glad I happened to buy beer!)
I bought a month of a rank on a Minecraft server, looks like I'll have that rank forever!
Yes, yes I am.
Yes.
Coffee creamer and soda, very nice (and something that would be nice to have monthly instead of more or less often)
Bread from a local restaurant. Such delicious bread.
No thanks, I have enough air pumps.
Couple of burgers at Freddy's... I'm ok with this gift.
I just bought the game Risk of Rain 2. I wouldn't be a huge fan of it suddenly turning into a subscription model, but if I didn't get a say in the matter and the universe somehow chose Risk of Rain 2... then at least it chose a quality game.
Not me over here saying, “Dead Island Definitive Edition for only $3? Why not?!”
I just bought some treats for my dog. I hope I need the subscription for the rest of my life.
It depends. The last thing I bought was a burger. Do I have a subscription to burgers, or just that burger? ;)
20oz Mountain Dew. I’m sure getting a lifetime supply of that would keep me happy.
Last online thing I bought or literally last thing I bought?
Last thing I bought were groceries from the supermarket, I already have a lifelong weekly subscription lol. Last thing I bought online was a cat tree which would be quite an interesting proposition...
Cookie dough, allergy meds, and dog treats ... I'm okay with any or all of those every month.
I mean I bought a couple boxes of Flesh and Blood, I would love if more kept coming lol.

Microfiber towels. Eh, I'd be OK with that.
A gift card for the local home improvement store. That's pretty neat!
Not sure, I don’t want diabetes (Starbucks)
Well I'm not complaining, there's nothing wrong with a lifetime of iced coffee. Except that it was decaf, this time :/
