Fuck, I've been selling tons of shit on Craigslist just to buy cool new backpacking gear. 10 min ago I just bought a $150 down sweater from Patagonia!
Before that it was a tarp tent
Then a titanium pot
Then an alcohol stove
Then a new backpack that was on sale.....
I've sold my 32 inch flat screen, my ps3, my old backpacking tent.....

I think buying gear is so fun because it means you will be going on an adventure soon. It gets your mind thinking and planning for a trip

I agree, buying gear helps solidifies an awesome future. Buying the best that you can afford also takes a little bit of consumerism out of the equation 'cuz good shit lasts for ever. A lot of my gear is 6-15 years old and still preforms just like new. I do need some new waders for this season tho, finally wore the old neoprene ones out..

So glad I snagged the Jacket! The sale ended last night and it was supposed to end sonner than that but they forgot to update the website or something. Now I got the bomb ass down jacket I need for my adventures that only weighs 13 ounces 
.....But ya, part of the fun buying gear is visualizing the epic adventures you can go on with quality shit
