Whats something you regret spending money on? - Jinu - Oct 13, 2026
We’ve all bought something thinking it was worth every penny, only to regret it later. Could be an expensive gadget, a subscription, or something you barely ended up using.
For me, it would be buying things just because they looked cool at the time, only to lose interest in them a few weeks later.
What about you? What’s that one purchase you wish you could get your money back for?

I regret some takeaway foods I've ordered recently, didn't taste well.

That’s the worst, especially when you’ve been looking forward to the food. Paying for something that doesn’t even taste good makes it even more disappointing.

I regret taking on debt. Now the debt ain't that much but the problem is that I make way too little at this time to cover all my bills etc. (Thanks to our government)
I now pay almost 3 euros per liter of diesel. So yea also I pay taxes on the car because it is diesel car.
But I hope all this will soon blow over and all.

I can relate to that. I’ve spent quite a bit on games too, and sometimes I wonder if I really got my money’s worth out of them.

Yes, especially since I wanted to order from this place for years as I've watched it on Tik Tok and it looked super tasty, but it's in a different town of mine. At least I tried :)

I’ve lost count how many of my purchases ended up being waste of money.
RE: Whats something you regret spending money on? - junooo - Oct 13, 2026
There are many things that end up being a waste, but I guess anything in-game related. Any skin, item or anything bought with real money is a big big waste. Not my proudest moment but I once bought v-bucks just because I wanted the alien skin. I still play with it on the rare occasion that I play Fortnite but yeah.... wasn't necessary

I regret getting into my covid hobby and building literal hundreds of custom keyboards
I spent way too much $ there and could have gone to different items for useful things. Instead, I just have a ton of keyboards. I can only use 1 of them at a time and often stick to the same one for 1 year anyway.
