The anomaly will be generous and allow you to get books on different languages.

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...

8

I'm gonna have so many USB cables. And I'll still probably not be able to find any.

It was a Nintendo Switch controller. I'm resigned that I'll still probably have to deal with drift.

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 🤣

BattleBit Remastered.

Having a good time, hope they don't use FaceIT.

Just bought some tacos, which is the best subscription you can have.

5

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.

4

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

4

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.

2

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.

4

Weed torch and 20lbs propane tank. I’m going to have a lot of flame throwers.

4

Nice. While probably not amazing for health, I would love to have the excuse - don't want to waste food.

1

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.

4

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 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.

3

A lifetime subscription to tea and egg mcmuffins will make my life shorter, but it'll be a happy one.

3

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.

2

Two new tires and a brake job every month? Excessive, perhaps, but I won't turn it down.

2

A couple of adjustable wrenches. I lose tools constantly, but I don't think I need new ones every month.

2

A pair for every occasion! (yes, I wore a pair of steel caps to my sister's wedding, how did you guess?)

1

Well i was at a second hand market (flohmarkt) and bought a plastic toy castle for my kid.

2

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.

2

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.

2

Furnace filters, so ... not really all that different from reality, but I don't need that many of them every month!

2

I bought Jedi Survivor last night but luckily I bought weed after, so yes, weed subscription, please.

2

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

2

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.

2

I bought two cheesesteaks, not bad but I could eat them but frequently than monthly.

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)?

1

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)?

Is the friend still involved in these tickets?

2

I’ll probably have to reinstate the iron curtain, give. That I last bought a couple bags of concrete…

1

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!)

1

I bought a month of a rank on a Minecraft server, looks like I'll have that rank forever!

1

You now have a monthly, lifetime subscription to the last thing you bought. Are you satisfied with your purchase?

Yes.

1

Coffee creamer and soda, very nice (and something that would be nice to have monthly instead of more or less often)

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.

1

Not me over here saying, “Dead Island Definitive Edition for only $3? Why not?!”

1

It depends. The last thing I bought was a burger. Do I have a subscription to burgers, or just that burger? ;)

1

20oz Mountain Dew. I’m sure getting a lifetime supply of that would keep me happy.

1

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...

1

Cookie dough, allergy meds, and dog treats ... I'm okay with any or all of those every month.

1

I mean I bought a couple boxes of Flesh and Blood, I would love if more kept coming lol.

1

Diet Coke with Lime from Sonic. I get it every day, so it may as well be a monthly subscription. Do I get a discount please?

1

A gift card for the local home improvement store. That's pretty neat!

1

Well I'm not complaining, there's nothing wrong with a lifetime of iced coffee. Except that it was decaf, this time :/

1

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
