Suede platform thigh boots with 8 inch heels.
Fell off them first time I wore them, fracturing my ankle and resulting in me losing my new work contract as I couldn't start on time.
Fucking expensive pair of boots. |

"What's the one thing you really regret buying?
Have a lovely evening all.  "

"A boat. Cost me more than marriage for the time I had her..
Hopefully you will have more luck if you ever buy another one."
I will never buy anything bigger than a rib again. She was a beauty but cost me dear (still like marriage), and all I have left is I now know shitloads about boat maintenance..  |

I once bought a pair of Camper bowling shoes as my (female) friend had a pair and I thought they looked cool. They looked awful on me and probably saw the light of day no more than twice.
Could have been a bigger mistake, but they were expensive to the 20 yo me who bought them. |

Where did they end up? |

Hopefully you can laugh about it now, that is expensive! |

My flat, stupid leasehold now with 16k major works to pay each when the building is only 15 years old, plus I've not lived there 2 minutes. With that money I'm paying I could have bought a house and not be beholden to unscrupulous management companies
On a lighter note, buying passage for all my heels (over 100 pairs) to go to Kenya when I lived there to then never wear them bc of uneven ground. And then pay for their return. They did look pretty on my bookshelves though.... |

"For me, J, the last house before this one..
Had so much wrong it nearly broke me.
Should’ve walked away but family sentiment twisted my arm.
Turned a profit but took years off me. "
I can definitely relate to that. |

Over a grand on behaviourists and trainers for my rescue dog just to be told she's very intelligent and knows exactly what she's supposed to be doing, she's just stubborn and a dickhead 
Rescue number 2 I probably could train as he is super food driven, but not with hellion one setting her example. |

Is she a Husky. It's like trying to train a cat. Every command is met with 'why?'. |

She a mutt that looks like a silver German shepherd, but could definitely have some husky and sarplaninac in her as they're the only other dogs I've ever encountered that were even close to her absolute refusal to do anything she doesn't choose to do herself. |

An inflatable vibrating butt plug.
One hand needed to stop it popping out, a second hand needed to use the pump.
I had no free hands to operate the speed control or have a wank!
I put it back in the box and it's never seen the light of day since! |

"A past car purchase. It was decent but kept it far too long. Cost me a lot of money to maintain.
Car's are a money pit especially electric one's now that was a mistake. "
I though electric ones are quite cheap to run. What happened there?

Bought my daughter a new one it gives a range of about 220 miles but you will be lucky to get 120 miles in the cold with heater's, lights on etc. The car cost enough then having the electric point fitted was another big cost as it had to be taken from the front of the house, throughout the house, under the garden and into the garage. The house electric had to be upgraded to be able to run 7kw and with the price of electric going up it's probably cheaper to run a petrol car and 10 time's easier. The future my arse. |

Hot tub
My wife wanted it so bad £1200
We had to crane it in £250
We had to deck half the garden to make a level base £600
Then she bought a gazebo cover that capstone £1800
Then adding a separate electricity feed £640
It’s been hardly used
It costs £100. Month just to maintain heat
It’s high maintenance
It’s virtually never used and arsehole family keep turning it up to too hot to sit in when they do |

To be fair, it didn't see the light of day much when you were using it either  |

Believe me Beagles are like that too. Only way to get ours to do anything is with treats. |

Probably fall off with tape, you need something more permanent.  |
