    What do you spend it on?

    I have a rare opportunity to drop a couple hundred bucks on whatever I want. Problem is, I have no idea what it is I want. It's been forever since I've had cash to spend on something other than my kids or some kind of bill.

    My initial thought is a Wii, but I am open to alternatives.

    So, what would you buy?

    Do you already go to the games?

    OU tickets? Aggy tickets? A nice golf day for you and a buddy? A sitter and dinner/movie/catch a band for you and wifey?

    in all fairness, the two chicks that you would get for 250...you should avoid.

    One for a half hour...maybe.

    A trip somewhere. Some air fares are crazy cheap right now. Go visit somebody you are past due a visit to. Or book a flight to an away game now while tickets are cheap. Grab a ticket to the game later on.

    If you were already considering a Wii, I'd go with that. Apparently you want one and your kids will love it as well.

    ipod Touch. Amazing device. Almost what an iphone is without the monthly fee.

    The Wii and take a trip are great ideas, but you'll ultimately spend more than the $250. Also love the game ticket idea, but $250 will only get you one OU ticket.

    I vote for the iPod touch (though you'll still spend > $250 after you download apps/games). Love my iPhone, though the company pays for unlimited phone and I come out of pocket for unlimited data ($60 per month). Rumor has it that they will be adding a camera to the touch, but I didn't hear the ETA on this additional feature.

    That will get you a decent GPS if you are a geographical dyslexic, but go with the wii if that's what you really want.

    If you cannot decide, put it in a special interest bearing account until just the right thing comes along. That is what I would do if undecided.
