Not me.  If I'm drinking I'm not on a computer (or my phone) to buy stuff online and I sure as fuck ain't driving to stores.

[crazydean]

Never had an issue with this. I tend to plan out my purchases. I'm not so good with impulse decisions.

[SignOfZeta]

With me its synthesizers and...another substance, but yes. I can imagine it being a real problem. It never has been though.

Haven't been drunk for about 5 or 6 years. Last time I was I ordered an adult channel that promised "discreetness ". Next day they call the house to ask if I'm enjoying the service and the wife answers.
NEVER AGAIN

I've always been prone to binge buy small video game purchases when drunk. Now I stay off the phone and computer when I'm drinking.

[bob]

yes, i have.
i was determined to win might and magic 3 one night while i was at the bar.  i won.
i have also had things show up the mail that i forgot i bought a few days earlier.  that has always been small stuff.

[ClodBusted]

Not video games, but I remember myself being in a pub 3 years ago and buying an old Lego Space Police II heavy spaceship from the early 90s, via eBay.

I don't regret it.

Haaa busted !!!

[bartre]

Oddly enough, the only things I ever drunk buy are thing that I've been putting off.

Example- I had needed a couple new charging cables & an aux cable for my phone.
I was out at the bar waiting for my friends to come back inside and boom, ordered.

I used to do this.... Thank God I got the point where I'm satisfied with what I have. Drunk ebaying is a killer

I do something similar to this, except it's more of a mental list of games that I say I am not going to buy due to price... then go into 'fuck it' mode and buy them when under the influence of stuff.

[ToyMachine78]

The last game I just about bought under the influence was Steam Hearts. Had hit Japan has one, I would have bought it. He gives me crazy deals

You could have just watched porn and played another shooter for cheaper

[MNKyDeth]

Woo, glad I am not alone then...

I don't drink and buy often but when I do, especially during sales like the steam sale going on currently sometimes I just flip a blind eye to the bank account and go to town.

However my purchases are typically low cost sale games, there has been a couple times I am sure where I have spent a good amount on something I just had to have at that moment.

In the end I am never driving obviously, but surfing on the computer or on the phone or showing my brothers cool stuff and stumble upon something ... etc.

Screw that. If I'm drinking and watching porn, it's gonna be with the wife. No time for obey!

I do the same kind of thing. I'm such a cheapskate that's its a bit relieving to get a couple small things when drinking

[BigusSchmuck]

My wife is going to kill me when she finds out I bought $80 worth of Neogeo controllers on the bay. Bad time to be drunk buying.

[xcrement5x]

I used to do this occasionally but rarely anymore since I don't drink as much anymore.  Maybe I will again now that the second kiddo is born. 

Anymore I just set snipes and wait to see if I won or lost a week later.
