So...
First, I know that many people are really hurting with the COVID-19 shut-downs. But some of us are still working full-tilt due to the nature of our jobs or even working OT.
To those of you about to get a windfall... Any plans to stimulate the economy by buying a lightsaber?
And if so ... what?
For myself: I have my eye on either a Fulcrum or perhaps my first Diamond saber. Not sure yet.

If I get the opportunity...I'm thinking about a new Scorpion. I'd really like to get a diamond saber. (probably not) just picked up a DSI. Would love to get a second one or even a Standard Issue v3. to make my 1st staff.

I'm having my wife take most of it but I may just use my work bonus for a Fulcrum and Lost Grey.

I'm going to wait to see what I get from the last giveaway. I'm still waiting on my four free ones since I ordered two pre-order Empress sabers. Once I see what I get I'll decide.

I plan on using some of it at small businesses to help out. I’m not sure if I’ll get a saber.

I'll have to wait and see. Since this situation started, life is trying to make me take a different path than I intended to.

I’m hoping to. Have to wait and see the next sale or so, since the check probably will be several weeks from being in my account.
If I do, I’ve been eyeballing the diamond azure grand master for a couple months now. Bonus points if it becomes a deal of the day 😂

Probably won't go with a saber. Thinking that letting US get a chance to possibly catch their collective breath after the last few weeks/months might be a better idea

I’m waiting for the next raffle before I make another purchase. We’re using our taxes to fix our yard. It’s been dirt for a year now. The stimulus will probably just go to savings for emergency funds. But I’m considered essential and am still working and we’re now going to be getting $350 extra per check as hazard pay till this virus nonsense calms down so I’ll probably set that extra aside for a saber or rifle or upgrades for my truck or maybe finally start restoring my gramps old Willy’s jeep. Not sure yet.

Been talking to the wife, we're going to spread ours around locally as much as possible but I plan to set a chunck aside to help my favorite online business. I might tuck it away in savings, though, for a bit to let them catch their breath from the rush.

Gotta save mine. There is potential that my job make take a nose dive. Right now all the stores are stocking up on stuff. When this is over if they still have too much stock we may have very little business.

I have been lurking the forums for quite some time. I finally got back to work after being out for 7 months from a torn ACL. Now that I'm back in the rhythm, I'll try to be around here more. You guys all have such knowledge and humor and the most I get to do is check every few days for a new mystery box vid, saber review, or a chuckle. I get all of those. Much love. I'd like to try & buy a diamond and maybe enter in my first raffle if there's a spring one, but not sure if Mrs will go with that just yet. Maybe I can convince her my sick saber skills (I'm practicing, so in my own mind I'm OK) will be needed when people start banging our door down for TP. (We don't have any extra, just sayin'.) I too, am also considered essential (firemans) so my paycheck is still coming, and I'm blessed to have the job security. But I’m considered essential and am still working and we’re now going to be getting $350 extra per check as hazard pay till this virus nonsense calms down...
Hazard pay must be nice. You can buy a diamond per month! I for one can't think of how to help my favorite saber builders than by giving them some of my own money taken from me in the first place! |
