    I'd throw a party for the craic. 50 bag of weed and a few E's with the first hundred. I'd then buy 5 packs of Superking Black, leaving me with 100 quid for food and Jaeger Meister for the guests. The rules for admission to the party would that everyone had to bring vodka (smirnoff) or something of equivalent alcohol content just to make sure everyone gets pissed. The remaining money would be for breakfast rolls for me and my close friends in the morning cause I'm nice like that :D

    "Where did you get them boots?"
    "Oh Mickey bought them online and when he got them they were the wrong size for him, he wasn't gonna send them back to the States so he sold them to me at a very reduced rate!"

    Sorted! See I got a bit of a brain!

    I would put it in my bank account as I need to save up for various fee's and other things I need to pay for.

    If I didnt have to save, I would..........put it towards something more expensive. There isnt many things under €250 I want.

    Full of s**t and you need to live a little

    Got a completely unexpected refund from my health insurance company a few weeks ago, €325! Couple of weeks later had a birthday which earned me a load of cash :D
    Bought perfume that I wouldn't have bought otherwise. Paid for a Christmas time trip to new York and spent a few bob during a weekend away. Also donated money to a charity which is raising money for my friend who is undergoing cancer treatment and has to travel up north for injections that aren't available here.

    Would love to win the euro millions. I'd have a blast :D

    I was walking down the street last Friday night and found €50 just lying there on the pavement. There was nobody around, so it wasn't going to be possible to return it. I was with my Dad at the time and we promptly entered the nearest restaurant and drank it. You have to spend these things quickly, they are a gift from the other world to be used rashly and it angers the Gods if you insult their amused largesse with thankless frugality.

    Spend it at once OP! Ere you should anger the Gods!

    Almost like what I'd do - full body massage @ 50 euro for an hour and the rest on......a happy ending ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,739 ✭✭✭✭starbelgrade


    I'd probably throw it in the jar with the rest of the small change.
