I fall victim to that all the time. Yesterday I bought a toaster because It looked cool. I didn't need a new toaster.

I used to. Left work one day and dropped about a thousand bucks on a new 1:8 buggy race roller kit and all the things you need to make it work. Just because I was bored.

I didn't 'need' it, had a better one already. It was an impulse buy and I regretted it actually later because it just wasn't a good car for my style of driving. It's sitting in the corner of my office as I type this.

I think that was the last time I did that. I find other things to do now a days if I'm 'bored'. Plus having a wife, kids and a cat sort of tends to put the brakes on that sort of thing.
