$400 |
|
Here's a game so to speak. Someone is going to give you a $400 dollar gift. It has to be a single present, and as close to $400 as possible. There's a catch though, it can't be cash, and to make it fun it can't be a firearm. You have to pick what it'll be. Good luck.

A high-quality tent or sleeping bag.
Some of those can get up to the $400 range.

Somehow I knew you would buy something for your car with it.
Nothing wrong with that, though.
Getting new toys is always fun.

I would get my Scuffy (trumpet) refinished. that can cost up to 400 bucks.
or save it for college,
or buy a few out doors odds and ends (knives, flint sticks...) and some CDs and Surviverman DVDs,
or......
I live a simple life.

 |  | save it for college,
| That will get you about a book, maybe I think I would spend it on some survival gear that I wasn't sure about, free money means I can test and see if it is worth spending my money to get more

Yeah, those things are darn expensive, too.
But hey, it's a gift. Not your own money.
Dream big.

Yeah those stoves are cool. They can burn pretty much any fuel that's in liquid form.
I might get binoculars, or a nice collectable knife. I'm sure there's more useful things to get, can't think of them though.

No gun makes it hard but.... |

either 10 horse riding lessons 'cause I've wanted to learn for a while, or lessons on reloading ammo.

reloading isn't very hard it's just that you have to spend so much up front to get all the equipment.

Well for one I would buy a USMC Combat knife, always wanted one of those again (I gave Airforce MP one to my cousin, her dad gave it to me and I didnt feel right keeping it when she lives in the woods)
uh what else here. Get my 1978 Schwinn Stingray repainted that candy apple red color... (all original parts but the front tire and the shifter, they're reproductions)
Survival supplies obviously...
New hardware for my computer, I need more harddrive space

I ment like any of those things. not all at once, all together it would be way over 400 simply because the bike paint is 400 on its own

I don't know if I'll ever get a tattoo. At this point I have nothing of meaning to put on me.
