Is there anything you buy knowing damn well you don't need it?

Toys/collectibles. I have more than I could ever display and still buy more.

Potentially. I don't think I have any very valuable toys/collectibles but you never know until you try and sell them.

Funny I am in town and went by the sunglass aisles today everywhere I went.
I got some chicken wire for my herbs to hopefully keep out the deer.
I got some stuff for a party. I got some cheap tank tops and t shirts I don't need.
I got some food items and stocked up on paper items.
I go back on Thursday.
