I am incredibly frugal (or cheap as most people call it), as such I hardly buy any new things - in terms of clothes, shoes, etc.. Most of my clothes and such are hand-me-downs or bought from a thrift store. I reuse and recycle many things as well. When I make a new purchase, I must always be certain that it is important and useful - something I need. Those things come first before such things as video games.
However, there are a few things that I've purchased that I regret to this very day.

- Metroid Prime: I played for about five minutes before I traded it in for store credits at Gamestop. I never even learned how to play it. It originally costed me 40 bucks.
- Soul Calibur II game guide: I bought it AFTER I completed the game 100%; 20 bucks wasted. *facepalm*
- The most regretful experience yet was the time I paid out of pocket for my prescription lenses - 100 bucks. I had only worn them two times Soon after...lo and behold...they break. Unfortunately, I could not afford the cost of repair. Heck, I could not really afford the prescription lenses in the first place. xd *sigh*
