Post your newest "toy" or fun purchase. Or even something you're looking to get. I fully expect to see Jetliners in one post and a giant dilly in the next. A perfect opportunity for us big dick swinging Paddock Posters to brag.

Just grabbed a new Tablet. Samsung S3 Tab. Needed a new one after my Asus TF101 is about 6-7 years old. This thing is sleek as hell and the note taking is great. And admittedly, the coloring/drawing is stress relieving.

bought a set of golf clubs. A month ago. Haven't had the time to actually play :(

I want to get back into it. Feeling the itch. Played a lot as a kid, but like most kids, you just want to play video games and sniff things.

I still can't stand playing anything more than 9. I don't get how people can spend several hours playing 18 with 3 other people. My ADD would kick in.

I used to play literally every day. When I was a kid I lived across the street from hillcrest in Owensboro. My brother and I had the yearly pass and would just spend all day everday playing.

When I grew up and had to get a job my golf outings became more and more rare. That and the clubs I got in middle school rusted out and I didn't have clubs for years. But I played on Thanksgiving with my family for the first time in years. My brother found a set for me to use. Damn did it feel good.

Was going to initially go with the zero turn but due to the terrain of my property, I elected to go with a Husqvarna 48" cut 24 hp riding mower.

Canon T6i DSLR camera with a bunch of accessories...certain situations require more than a smartphone camera. Currently in Alaska and I’ve gotten some great shots

Auto. Majority of Vetts are Auto now plus are faster than Manual. Was torn because I like shifting gears and think high powered sports cars should have them but decided to get Auto. So far, haven’t regretted it. Can switch gears with the switches on the steering wheel but never use them.

I assume "fun" in the case means more than just a few bucks, so my Funko Pop collection would be out of the mix though I did buy a couple of two-packs that ran around $30.

Aside from that, I'll have to say the AirPods I bought earlier this week. I don't have an iPhone so I don't get all the benefits of it, but it's awesome with the

I reckon the only other thing "major" this calendar year was the Kindle Fire HD 10 that came with a free Echo Dot. Already had an Echo Dot. Deliberating between using the second Echo Dot either for the office or for the bathroom. I'm leaning office since it could get more use there.

I did have $400 in free Nike money to spend due to the partnership my athletic department recently signed with Nike/BSN Sports. I have to wear Nike at every game or every time I "represent the school" to external constituents, unless the situation calls for dressier attire, and shoes are exempted though it is strongly encouraged I wear Nikes. So since I can easily find Nike shoes steeply discounted online or at the Nike Factory Store in Charlottesville, I went with clothing. Got 3 long sleeve polos to replace all the quarter zips I basically can't wear anymore at work, 2 golf pants, 1 golf short, and 1 therma crew.
