For me it has to be:

  1. Helix mattress ($1,217). Sleep is great.
  2. Home gym power cage & weights (~$1,000). Look good, feel good, get strong.
  3. Netgear Nighthawk AXE7800 ($339). No more random, annoying internet disconnects/slowness.
  4. Books ($0 @ library)
    • “Ultralearning” - Scott Young (how to learn efficiently)
    • “Enlightenment Now” - Steven Pinker (the world overall is improving)
    • “The Bogleheads’ Guide to Investing” - Taylor Larimore (how to invest)
  5. PS5 ($500). So many great games like witcher 3, god of war, spiderman.

I’m searching for some more deep value purchases. Give me what you’ve got.

    It’s the price but I’ve also got a fairly decent setup already at home, so I think I’d only use it on my commute.

      I thought so too. But here I am playing on my deck games like deathloops and other graphical demanding games while my gaming pc got an identity crisis 😂

      But if the price is too high then you shouldn’t buy it. There will be more sales in the future :D

        My desktop rig is looking a little long in the tooth (i7 8700k, EVGA 1070 FTW Edition) but it can still keep up since I don’t rush to every brand new triple-A release. My problem is that I filled it to the brim with samples and music software a while back and actually had to start uninstalling games to make more space. Steam Deck solved that problem! lol
