I bought cast iron pan which I think is the best ever purchase I made.

The best purchase I’ve made this year has to be the tickets for the “Barbie” movie on opening day July 21st. As I watched the movie in theater (the best way to watch a movie), I was literally moved to tears by the performance of the lead actress, whom I might add, deserves an Oscar this year.
Fellow lemmings, I, for one, will definitely be buying “Barbie” on Blu-ray to have it in my collection.
Multiple copies, in fact.
I truly enjoy seeing you pop up all over Lemmy, especially with posts and comments like these! Rose gold effort!
Aw shucks, thanks.
Wait, no, now my cover is blown. 😭
Probably condoms.
Doom (1993). I bought it once and now all I need is the iWAD and I’ve got unlimited maps, mods, ports, and total conversions, to play forever and ever
Proper chef’s knife and vegetable cleaver. Most of my military surplus clothes. A vaccuum sealer. Second hand books. My Traynor YBA-1. Some good boots. There’s definitely stuff i forgot, i don’t really buy items anymore.
My dog. Easily the most value I’ve ever got for my money, no comparison.
A bidet. $30, attaches under your toilet seat. Life changing.
Union dues and used books.
Decent quality automatic cat feeders.
We have 3 cats, and I resisted getting autofeeders for 5 years because it felt silly to buy what amounts to three $75 food bowls.
They paid for themselves the first weekend I didn’t have 3 razor sharp dickheads screaming at me to feed them at 5:15 AM. I should have bought them years ago.
Avoiding 5am starvation yowls is exactly why I free feed, and I’m sure it’s going to bite me in the ass when my two are older and stop maintaining their weight easily. But for now, they’re active and healthy weight even with the free feeding. So we’ll see
Vasectomy. Before I got my vasectomy, I had a lot of anxiety that the condom might fail and an unwanted pregnancy would occur. That’s not to say vasectomies can’t fail, they can, even years afterwards, recanalization can happen so I get tested every year.
Annual failure rate of condom (average use) is 18%, and with perfect use it’s 2%. This means that over a span of 20 years, even with perfect use, there is a 33% chance for a pregnancy which is too high for me. A vasectomy with annual testing of sperm count is as close to zero as possible.
Yup this is why I got my tubes tied. Too much anxiety just relying on the pill!
Pretty smart. Hope it wasn’t too difficult for you to get it (many doctors treat their patients with condescension and dismissal about sterilisation, especially towards women).
Oh man it was a nightmare finding someone who would sterilize me. I was 24 when I started seriously looking, and I can’t tell you how many doctors told me I’d change my mind about not wanting kids (insert huuuge eyeroll here), and one doctor even said that he thought my boyfriend was forcing me into it and that I didn’t understand how permanent it was. Thankfully I did finally find someone to take me seriously but man, what a pain in the ass!
my futon mattress. custom made to my specific requirements. worked well for the last 20 years.
Been looking at getting one. Where did you buy yours from?
a futon store - I shopped around looking to see if anyone would do custom sizing & one place did. its very comfortable
Good knives. Well worth it.
