As a few others here, plants.
But if we weren't talking "buy", rather "have", then it'd be this:

I need a new safe, and a second reloading bench. still 100% murder-free!
Are you including your bank account in that statement? :biggrin:
For me, it’s soda. I can take fairly long hiatuses, but that Devil juice, it be callin’ me back sooner or later.
I think I may have gotten the better of Ol’ Squirt now though with the discovery of the holy tincture called Zevia Cola. Zero sugar, zero calories, zero artificial sweeteners or flavoring. A ton of flavors, muy delicioso, not at all bad in the pocketbook.

This week, 3D printer parts.
Started with a new budget 3D printer. Grabbed a glass bed and magnetic cover. Then adhesive. Then pro-adhesive.
Built a roller for the filament and needed bearings, which came in a multi-pack, so I printed some fidget spinners to blow through the bearings, and then everyone wanted spinners so I needed more bearings.
Printing so much was driving me nuts with manual-leveling, so I got an auto-level kit and pro-springs and colored aluminum knobs to go with the new springs even though the auto-leveler makes them redundant.
Now, I'm eyeing a laser-etching kit and a Raspberry Pi controller.
You should quit the small stuff, and just get the plasma cutter and start selling signs.
I'm in an apartment. I can't really do more than PLA printing without killing myself on the fumes.
...New calipers came today. Little rubber balls for a silencing-hack tomorrow. 90-degree micro USB cable for controlling it from my Mac coming Tuesday. (Gonna have to print a plate to hide the USB cable.)

Now, when you can MAKE your own stuff, it becomes VERY addictive. My partner's oldest son does Warhammer 40K. He now prints some of his own stuff, and makes custom figures.
