Oow good thread!
•U.S. humidifier. •That one tub I cracked the hell out of. •Perlite for monotubs. •Heating pad.
I feel lucky I haven't made too many bad purchases, but clearly a few.

I don't remember the prices but Heating pad impeller cool mist humidifier 5 syringes of the same variety of cubes large blew tubs for making an incubator 48 tall 1/2 pints 5 large clear tubs that I butchered making a SGFC/mono/GH hybrid 2 shitty 9qt PCs a bag of peat moss/manure/compost tyvek plastic trans pore tape hydrogen peroxide 2 digital hygrometers
I know there was a lot more but that's all I can think of at the moment. I still use my GH and ultrasonic.

This one is a mix of a deal and a waste:
50 pounds of gypsum for $0.15
That is 15 cents. I will never use it all.

I am kinda lucky cause most of the crap that noobs like to blow cash on I already had from keeping various reptiles and assorted hobby's. Most of the "bad purchases" I made I still found a use for albiet somethings I am still waiting to use The worst ones for me were;
-Dozen large ziplock food savers for use as trays (for the GH I never got around to building) -1/4 pint jars (for the grocery store agar tek I did once then came up with a better way to do it) -Opaque tubs and plexiglass for a window (too much of a pain to actually cut out, I just ended up buying clear ones) -Vacutainers (they suck balls compared to real slants) -luer lock plugs (just save the ones you get with the syringes) -Spawn bags (I still might use these) -21 slot test tube rack (shoulda got the 48) -Bag of finch seed (is crap, very oily)
No my biggest issue wasn't what I bought, its the assortment of pickle jars and random containers that I couldn't toss cause "I might use them someday"

I used to keep pickle jars but I have never used one so now I just toss them. I also picked up 1/4 pints for the grocery store agar tek before you wrote your tek. I tried out that oily finch seed too. It looked so promising with its small grain size.

Premade jars from a sponsor that stalled on me at 10 percent... 30$ Buying the Whatman Syringe Filters that caused said stall BEFORE I realized what was happening... 10$ Learning from my mistakes... A lamp and a computer screen.
