Default What are the coolest purchases you've made in the last year?

Number one would be our Temporpedic adjustable bed. (2 singles into one king)

Number 2 would be my iPad 2

I would say our new house, but a house is pretty much a necessity. After that I think our Droid 2 phones. I wanted one ever since they came out and when it was time to renew our contract, we upgraded to the Droids.

A RED Dodge Ram 3500 (1 ton) pickup with 6.7 Liter Turbo Diesel 4 x 4 Mega Cab and EVERY option and added camper shell to carry the cats between TV and CA. Our Ford F150 5.4 Liter V8 (which I really liked) just couldn't hack it with our travel trailer and my wife's stuff loading up the truck bed.

Too small for my new truck!

Also, at what price point does cheap wine start?
