What to do with a few extra hundred dollars?
I did something stupid today which ended up with me making an unexpected profit.
To keep it simple, we won't worry about taxes and interest, but let's just pretend that you got $1000 in your Venmo today as an unexpected refund from your gray dealer who felt guilty for over-charging you last year on that GMT you bought. What would you blow it on? It doesn't have to be watch related.

Transfer to my bank account. If nothing catches my eye and it’s not spent at the end of the month, it goes to the HYSA.
Not really anything on the “list” of wants around $1k. |

Perhaps something to replace around the house that you've thinking about? New chair, computer, phone, etc...

Put it into Kevin’s boat fund. I’ll go set up a gofundme site to make it easy for you. .
At first I was thinking I’d send my Submariner in for a fluff and buff, but the grime is growing on me. |

I don’t know but my wife spends $1000 every 12 hours. Maybe I should ask her.
