    Default $400, what to do?

    So the other day I was cleaning out the garage to make room for my new truck. I found the old takeoff set of wheels and tires from my SXS, and ended up selling them for $400. Great that killed 2 birds with one stone, gave me some room and some cash in my pocket.

    This being extra cash that I wasn't counting on having, and I'm not really out anything by having the wheels and tires gone, I'm trying to figure out what to blow the money on.

    One thought popped into my head this morning is to go buy $400 worth of tickets for tomorrow nights powerball. Am I better off getting 200 regular tickets, or 133 tickets with power play?

    Any other ideas? I'm good on guns and ammo.

    But it provides piece of mind and a little extra cushion. Then go get your teeth cleaned. Take the pets in for a check up. Get your vehicle completely detailed. All of the above for $400.

    Nah, watch silver the next few weeks and if it seems to stop trending down, then buy a bunch.

    Do you have a deep freezer stocked with food? Do you have long term, non-perishable food to last a couple months? How's the medical cabinet/supplies look?

    That's just as boring as putting it in the bank.

    It could get me drunk and make my stomach happy for life.

    Teeth just cleaned last month, dogs doing fine, fish are still swimming in the pond, vehicle detailed isn't a bad idea, I usually do those myself.

    Do you have enough mags and spare parts for your firearms? Springs and firing pins have been known to break from time to time

    hmm what else can I think of?
