Have you ever bought anything which you have instantly regretted?

I have had plenty of questionable fashion purchases over ther years, but buying snake skin shoes circa 2007 was a regret. I dont know WTF i was thinking at the time.
 
Nike High Tops in about 2009, wanted them for ages, finally got them and they were out of style.

Plenty, mostly clothes.

Buying a new hawaiian-style shirt right at the end of the trend. Never wore it. Shit trend anyway.
Bought an NFL jersey that was way too big and have never worn.
Bought a Matthew Wright #47 player issue guernsey about a week before he changed to #11.

I'm sure there are lots more. Also these days with large internet caps I regret buying most of the hundreds of DVDs i have.

$400 for this piece of shit that's as slow and laggy as a 20 year old IBM running Windows 95.

That reminded me of another one of mine. The iPad 1. Was decent when it came out. Nek minit, no more software updates for you suckers and as a bonus, nearly every app needs the latest OS to run. Planned obsolescence at its best.

I regret working in retail.

One of the toughest jobs ever, on your feet all day, ungrateful bastard customers, lousy pay, and the ****ing Christmas shopping hours :thumbsdown:

The only plus were the discounts.

They're cheap and nasty. The only person I know who actually bought one had it catch fire and burn to the ground ( < 3 years old).

Lol how common do you think that is?
They aren't A+ grade cars but they're pretty reliable.

Sounds like an impulse purchase. :p

Are you serious- you bought a pub. Whereabouts?

The Royal Oak, Ruscombe in the UK. Landlord, worst job in the world, you live abve the place, you drink to much you don't get enough sleep and you spend your waking hours dealing with drunks. You do leave the trade with a masters degree in amateur psychology and counselling though.

That's the old girl. These folk own it now and have turned it into a more restauranty type place.
