What are things you regret paying for?

I'm not sure but I think a graphic design course that didn't teach me anything 🙈 I already knew everything they gave I learned on Youtube and what I see good I knew more than the teacher 😂🤣

Estrella

I regret having bought a set of paintings, in the ad they painted it as the best in quality, and when I got home I got a great disappointment hehe

Zeljka

Oh my gosh, I have the whole list of things I regret buying! Let me name just few: air fryer, some branded cosmetics, Asus small laptop, shoes that look nice and cute but are horrible to wear...and a bunch of cat toy things that they NEVER used. ;)

Well, it looks like you fell into the Disney trap. I don't have an expense that I regret as I try to manage my best. What if I'm concerned was the monthly payment I pay at the gym and started the quarantine I regret believing the administration when he said the monthly payment would be frozen.

Ernesto Amador

Greetings, I once regretted having paid in advance for a job to wash my car, when I had. When I left it rained very hard .

gabrielagpo99

I agree with you about Disney+, because most of the movies I've already seen them. It's good when there are new releases or when the new series are already complete.

Rudi

Strangely enough my cell phone.. I have been led around the garden by a particular promotion and I have far too little space on my device..

ellesvandenbroek

Chinchillas with all accessories.... In a small student room where I lived back then. I really hadn't thought about it and bought the bugs in an impulse and brought them right away.. Super happy.... until night and the animals of course became active...

@ellesvandenbroek 😂

An expensive grey long fabric coat. Worn once (for a farewell service) and far too small by now. Should put it on sale for the niceness?. But guess I don't get it sold.
Something Autumn.

It seemed like a great purchase at the time, and at first I did have a lot of fun with. However, after wearing it for some weeks I noticed that the sensor had begun leaving a noticeable "burn-like" mark on my skin in the wrist area. It wasn't really burned, but you could see the shape of the sensor there, even after taking the Fitbit off for a while. I tried loosening the wrist band a bit, but that didn't solve the problem. Now, I do have very sensitive skin, but after reading around on the Internet I found out some other people did experience the same thing as me. I must say I was a bit worried, since the mark took a few days to dissipate completely, but in the end it was gone. Needless to say, I never wore the Fitbit again, and to this day it lays at the bottom of some drawer, gathering dust. I should note that I am not saying Fitbits are no good. In fact, I was a bit sad I could no longer wear mine, since it was a fun way of get healthier by turning walking into a game. And I have friends who've worn theirs with no issues. This was just my experience with it.

@Adriana Damn! Never thought the one thing that can measure your health, can also cause issues. Good thing you found out on time! 😣

I often bought clothes over the internet but always whether it was way too big or it was too small and since then I don't buy clothes on the internet. I just buy it normally in the store so I can fit.

Naturefreak

I occasionally suffer from impulsive purchases, like an electric guitar that was for sale by the aldi a few years ago.. Of course, the quality wasn't too good and there wasn't even a pick.. After a week, I pushed the thing aside and it's still catching dust in my storeroom..

Ingrid

@Naturefreak my semi-acoustic Spanish guitar is dusting away too. Think often: “Oh yeah, I want to learn that too!” but it doesn't come from it somehow (so far).

Once I went out into the street, and I saw a promotion of two x1 refreshments, which I saw it and I didn't pay much attention to it because I had an immense thirst, and then I saw that they were two super small soft drinks and I was sorry to tell the seller that I didn't want them anymore and then I bought them

mariavictoriaalbornozsanchez

Well, I'm always very careful about the things I spend money on. I usually only regret buying junk food instead of other healthier food, or having invested that money in education or home improvement and work instruments. Maybe I could also include movie tickets for a movie that I didn't like a little bit 😆

Mell Catsoul

Oh God yes i did... Many times. Things that broke sortly after it arrived, are did not work at all. Things who are to ugly to watch. But the pictures were great... Mweh....🙈 Realy dont want to talk about it, hahaha...

Juli.carmen

Very true many times we make impulsive purchases that sooner rather than later we end up repenting. But we must take those mistakes as experience and above all we must have self-control and willpower to value for sure what we really need and make better use of our money than with effort and determination we have managed to obtain

sofibrav

the sanalo cream is very greasy only apply it once and I stay whole but that is what the risk purchases are all about I hope to learn from the mistakes

Wendy

Sorry is a big word, but the purchase of our dog through Marketplace is not to be considered very beneficial.. The animal had had 2 other owners (and probably a lot of trouble) before his ninth week of life.. It's now a sweet family dog who doesn't love outsiders.. One with a decent user manual, even after a thorough workout

Chai, what a sadly day in my life dear as I bought two pairs of jeans trousers, getting home one was too big for me.As i returns it, the seller refuses to change it even to give me one with cheapest price

A few weeks ago I went to a place to dinner with my family and ordered a roast chicken, besides expensive it was too bad we lost the money because none of us really liked it

On one occasion I bought a used phone and at first everything fine but as the days went by the complications began and since I had time with it I could not return it

In my personal experience buying a treadmill that just like you lasted very short the athlete spirit hahahaha I ended up giving it away. Netflix also found it kind of boring because there is not as much variety of movies as in another one I got called Family Cinema, it's cheaper and has blockbuster movies and even from the 50s! I recommend them

In one opportunity buy inline skates to learn skating... but I never wore them came a smaller size and I could never change them, thanks amazon... My order was fine the mistake was theirs.

Show moreI used to invest in my dreams a lot, to this day I still think that investing in one's ambitions is a really good way to spend money. ( I still do it ). However, back then I didn't really know what it was I wanted in life so I spend money on dreams that were temporary leaving me with trash I then didn't need and had to sell.

I wouldn't say I really regretted it since at the end of the day I still gained knowledge and skills which I use for my true ambition now but not gonna lie... It would be helpful if I still had the money and got to spend it on investements I now really do need but can't buy.

Extended warranty on my previous android phone. I am so careful with my devices and they become obsolete after 2 years for so many reasons, that this was not needed at all... well, anyways... I learned this and when I bought the next one, I avoided the same mistake.

Chalija

I had bought a new extended mobile from a different brand than I'm used to. This would be a mobile that could be more. What did I regret this?. Clumsy thing. I stay true to my own brand for the time being..

I regret buying my wireless earphones.
I was a bit tired of getting my thread out of the button... no matter how you put it away, it's always tangled joh and ordered a pair of wireless, but they're in the drawer now.
It's not nice... they catch too many noises and less voice because they're too far from your mouth..

A while ago I went to the movies to see spell 3, and I feel like I wasted my money watching that movie because I think it was bad.

jose07610

I think one of the things I regret is buying a car and at the same time realizing that its title was false so I have to save the car can never use it again

Niria

There are things.that after bought we do not regret sometimes because they are unuseful others because it already had one and already after we are hooked with the purchase there is nothing left to charge it

Gollo

There are always things that we regret seeing bought once I bought a canole that looked tasty but when I tried it was nothing like what it looked like.

rognnert

I recently bought an Oreo milkshake, but when I came home to eat it wasn't what I expected, it was too liquid and didn't taste rich.

Fabiola Diaz

A book they recommended to me and after reading it I didn't like it, a dress that I could only wear once and a perfume that I thought was good and only smells like the moment of putting it on ☹️

Nuno Neves

Life insurance is a classic. There's the piece of clothing you'll only wear once and the food item you let to rot. Don't forget the wrong sized shoes. 😅

I bought a lemon pie that was on promotion. When I saw it it looked appetizing and looked good. When I paid it I thought the price was good but when I tried it it was horrible.
I regret spending money on that blissful foot. 😡

the subscription of a cable service provider for TV, a few days after paying the wiring was stolen and the provider did not want to respond

Hello. You always have this bad experience. I regret paying a retreat to the movies for a movie that was bad, as well as other things.

News

Lifting weights -> I never touched them after buying.
Gimmicks at the dollar store -> They just end up gathering dust
Colored clothes -> I never wear them only black

Anne Villalobos

Hahahahahaha I loved your situations. The things I regret the most is when I eat on the street and not rich, it is disappointing to think about spending money on something else more useful

fanny

Well, the worst purchase was a bicycle used for my baby it turned out more expensive I would have preferred to save and buy him a new one and the other was an internet purchase was a cell phone and it turned out that it was a scam 😩

Gilda O.

I remember when I bought a tres leches cake in the bakery, I wanted to eat it so much because I loved them, but when I started eating it was all dry underneath, and I instantly took away the desire to keep eating. I wasted my money

I had to think, I think that was a folding bike for me, to go through Amsterdam and so convenient on the train. . Movement on that thing is really awful, and collapse a disaster.. Plus the weight, not lifting for me then..,

rorocando

I regret buying the Directv is horrible before I brought awards channels HBO and others with movie premieres, now it changed the name to SimpleTV and is not even a quarter of what it was before. Everything has improved.
And another thing was a swimsuit, see a more beautiful panty.

Gustavo Perez

I once bought a retro console that had several classic games from the time of the 90-2000. The propaganda was very good, the promo video was the same, but when I bought it and started playing I felt scammed because it wasn't even the shadow of the presentation they had made to him. PS: I used it one day and then resell it, hahaha.

I think it's something that happens to all of us, sometimes you get momentarily excited and then comes repentance. Buy some exercise equipment and it was wasted money never use it.

When I went to watch fast and furious 8 in the movies, I think it's the money I've wasted in my life to see something so bad

The membership of a resort that I was paying for a long time and when I set out to use it was totally busy, I ended up using it for a place I didn't want to go, I knew it already

enigma

Clothes & Shoes. In the store they look beautiful and comfortable until you really walk around and do things with it.. Then the heels turn out to be too high, the knots are too open when you bend over, sanding the side..
That and superfoods. Then I read something and I think, “I'll get that ready..“But weeks later, it's mouldy in my pantry..

Too much money we spent on expensive Chinese hand knotted rugs.. At first they were beautiful in our interior, but after a few years the colours faded under the influence of sunlight..

Well, I usually regret paying for a meal, which when I try it is not what I expected, and that makes me feel disappointed and paid in bad taste

Ingrid

@pitamaria2000 I had that at a camping restaurant once.. When asked “Did it taste?” I answered honestly. Other good holidays there and other times well eaten there.. But not once and I'll say that honestly.. That was also appreciated, so they can change something about it.. My meal wasn't calculated.. Neat.
