Games are a great buy (Score 1)

I enjoy picking up new games even if it's just to play them once. I'll try one every once in a while on a whim for like $16-20 and spend an evening with my friends trying it out. If four friends pitch in $4 each then it's cheaper than going to dinner or a movie, it's social, interactive, and it's an interesting diversion.

While you're at it, see if you can find a copy of Burn Rate - with a theme based on the dot-com collapse.
