Question Wednesday

It’s Wednesday, which means it’s time to pose those financial questions.

This week, I want to know: what discretionary item would you replace immediately, without worrying about cost?

I ask this because, after three years of good service, my FitBit Flex just… stopped working. (It technically works. But it no longer holds a charge for more than 24 hours, and I have to do a hard reset on the device every time I charge it.)

Anyway, I gave the old FitBit about a week to see if anything would improve, and then I ordered a FitBit Flex 2 for $59.95, or $66.01 with tax.

There is no reason I need another FitBit except for the fact that I like it. So… what’s your unnecessary, frivolous thing that you would immediately replace?
