An apple watch, I did order one back in May but decided to cancel the order, annoyingly it had already been despatched and I had it sat for 2 days without opening it. Then sent it back.

Currys in the UK recently dropped £50 off the price of Apple watches, making the 42mm cheaper than getting the 38mm straight from Apple.

I managed to resist again, just don't think spending out on a first generation product is a good investment.

iPad Pro.

My son has taken over my Air 2 for media consumption, learning games, and the like. I have my 6s+ that I use when browsing the net on the couch or relaxing but really miss my iPad lol.

I am trying to use my son's usage of my wife's 1st gen Mini as a reason to give her my Mini 3 and get myself a new iPad (Air 2 or Pro). However, I just can't pull the trigger with a new baby on the way.

New baby has been here for 4 weeks so I am treading lightly and trying to time it right to that exact discussion.

Haha, congratulations!

I have one that will be 2 in February and a new one coming in April. We are on a bit of a spending freeze.

I am with you. 3 1/2 year old and then this newborn. Daycare alone is going to be more than my mortgage the moment she is going to school.

I should be keeping myself from buying anything!
 
For me, it's the PS4. Seeing all the awesome new games makes me want to buy one. However, I have a PS3 which is just sitting there not being used. (Has been sitting there long before the PS4 came out). I lack the free time to be able to play video games these days. The temptation is tough to fight off though.

I got one last year for my daughter mostly, but where as I used to game a lot, having a better console doesn't mean I have more free time to play it.
In other words if you don't use/have time for your PS3, that's unlikely to change much with a different console.

iPad Pro. Need to conserve as much as I can for school since a semester sets me back almost $2k.

If these were available in Rose Gold, I'd have one. Yeah, after years of saying no Gold / Rose Gold, ...well bling I feel your sting.

I hear you. Considering selling my xbox 360 to upgrade to a PS4, but can't quite bring myself to justify the cost.

I know the feeling. Funny thing is I have games for XBOX 360 and PC that I haven't fully explored and enjoyed yet... so I think it'll be the same if I get an XBOX One.

I really want a good Espresso Machine. I can find one for a good price on Ebay, but I don't know if I need to spend that money at the moment.

Currently considering the same upgrade, ditch 360 and get a PS4. Mostly because of the amazing games that have come to it recently: I need a way to play them!
 
Computers. I freaking love computers

I have a 2014 13'' Macbook Pro. I am set on my laptop for several years with this great machine but it doesn't mean there isn't other stuff out there I like.

Dell XPS 13 - Dat screen bezel

Oh lord, I think I'm in love

Asus Zenbook

It comes in 15'' you say? And that finish. Lawdy

Macbook Air

11'' 10+ hours battery? Oh man it was so close on going with my Pro or one of these beauties. I absolutely love the Air!

Chromebook Pixel 2

I really liked Chrome OS. I wish it would have worked better for me. I like computer games to much and there's still quite a few things that want Windows or OS X to use on the Net. Gotta have my sports streams.

Really only scratches the surface. Lots of gaming laptops and business class laptops I like as well. Dell Latitude is a perennial favorite.
 
You and me both ever since the day it came out.

Also some Phillips hue set up like thing for my living room as I just mounted my tv and have a nice built in wall unit. I've seen some great set ups with it.

Two things I really want as well. 🙂
