If you got $400, what would you use it for?

This year I'm just saving my tax refund for future payments to whatever I may need it for. Grown up life sucks. If I had to spend it on something though, I would throw it all into some random upgrade for my truck, not really sure what I could do to it for 400 dollars though, guess some new subs would be nice since my old ones blew out.
 
Always wanted to buy myself a PlayStation 4, but couldn't as I didn't have enough cash to spare. :( If I somehow managed get $400, that's what I'd spend it on. If there's any money left after the purchase, I'd get some games.
 
I would immediately buy either a better tablet or a cheap laptop. or invest them and buy a better car with it with more money.

Or...ROAD TRIP TO LOS ANGELES. Who's with me?
 
240.56 in pounds.

I would buy myself Len and Rin Kagamine plushies to keep my Kaito one company.
 
First thing on the list: PS4! :D I mean, I could purchase it myself right now, but there's no absolute must-have game for me at the moment, and I'd rather have my sister pay for it anyway, hehe.
 
That would go into my savings account and probably be used for the San Francisco trip I'm planning :>
 
That could set me for months considering I have a very adequate and yet tight budget.
Is the thing I wish I could say but considering that I would consider this free money I might end up saving at least half of it, then I would just go and blow it all on Pizza. I might regret it, I might not, who knows.
 
I would donate it to charity as I can't use $ in my country (yes is know bureau de change exists but that's cheating) and I would probably waste the money on something that I didn't really need in the long run.
 
Straight into the bank you go! Honestly, I don't spend that much aside from a few hobbies, gas, and food. That, and I just don't like spending big amounts of money at one time, as it just feels weird to me :/
 
Save it. Pretty much any extra money I get goes into my savings account for when I move. It's boring and what-not, but I find it better to be prepared for the future rather than getting instant gratification.

Though actually having money to fix my computers would be nice.
 
400$ is P17980.00 in Philippine pesos, so I can buy quite a lot of stuff with this amount. : P I'm probably buying a 3DS and a couple of games for it, since this is more than enough money for these two combined. I'll save the excess cash for future stuff, like a PS4 or other consoles. I'm in dire need of consoles because what I only have is a Wii with a serious lack of games and a PS2 that isn't even mine.
 
It would go straight into the bank along with all my other money as I save up for either a new graphics card for my PC (Hopefully a 780 Ti), or the vacation to South Korea I want to take after my first year of college in 2015.

$400 wouldn't cover either of those, but it'd be a great start :p
 
Spend a little here and there in small things, but mostly I would save it. I'm very conservative about the very little amount of money I have. I love spending money, but the problem is, afterwards, I don't have money to spend anymore! So I just save a lot of it, then spend a medium sized chunk of it. However, recently, I've been saving up more and more, and not spending any.
 
If I got $400 out of nowhere and I was allowed to (or supposed to) just irresponsibly spend it, I'd probably buy a 3DS, a few games that I've wanted in English, import a few books/textbooks, and then maybe spend the rest on gifts for people.

If I was supposed to be responsible with it, it would just go towards internet bills and groceries for a few months. :/
 
If $400 came back to me in a tax return, it'd go straight into the bank. I'm not much of a frivolous spender, and even though I'm not on a tight budget I know I'll need it eventually (gas, groceries, etc.).

If I were given $400 on the condition that I had to spend it (like a gift card or something) it'd probably go a 3DS, a copy of Pokemon X or Y, a copy of Monster Hunter 4, a better mouse for my PC (right now I have a cheapy $10 one), and Dark Souls 2. I've pretty much decided that I'm done with consoles and handhelds, but if I had money to burn why not?
 
Clothes without a doubt. I'd probably get a leather jacket, and then a few tshirts and cardigans ;3
