One Million Dollars! Where would you spend it?  

I would likely buy myself a modest house, a new car, a new wardrobe and help put my parents back on stable financial ground. I might even pay you to be a foot model for me! I bet you have beautiful toes. :)

I would buy a very big greenhouse for growing more veg.
We would have a rotovator for digging and one of those swimming pools you can have put up in your garden with the conservatory over it so you can swim all the year round. So I suppose that would have to be a big DIY store.
Then I would go to a computer warehouse and buy both of my kids new laptops.
Then the car showroom and we would have an electric car or a hybrid car.I dont think there would be much change after all that:)

I will probably be the craziest that you might get according to some people but here it goes. Of course after the government takes out the taxes which would be about $300,000 dollars. Then 10% to my church which is $100,000. Then I would purchase a new home ($100,000)a new suv $50,000 and a new truck $50,000. Then I would also give some more to my church and for mission work. I would also pay off all of my debts. Then I would start my own business and then live on it for what is left.

I'm in Switzerland. I just moved here last year. So I am unsure about all their stores here. BUT I do like Manor. I don't like their furniture stores here because they are too modern for my taste. I am into antiques, or anything that is made new but has that old fashioned look to it. I also like gothic furniture, and it is impossible here in Switzerland to find this stuff. I am originally from America. Boston Mass, and they had great furniture stores for this stuff. I think I would go to a bunch of antique stores here and buy furniture if I has one million. Be it, I can only spend it at a store :-)
Sorry I don't know the names of all the stores here. :-(
Great topic. :-)

If I had to spend it only is stores that would be tricky! I would go to walmart first because they have so much like hair supplies, soap, laundry soap ect. I would stock up on tons of that stuff. Then I would go to Christopher Banks and go crazy on clothing. I can never afford to purchase clothing from there reg price and it would be great to do that. Next would be Pennys or Sears to buy stuff for the family.

I'd probably go to some of those nice, expensive clothing stores and get some really nice outfits. Then I would get some nice jewerly ( I LOVE necklaces! )I would def. have to visit a dog pound, get myself a new friend), and then go to a pet store and get him some toys, food, etc. Then get some toys and treats for my cat, I already have her! =P

And if it counts I would def. use the money to help buy a nice little, comfy (not to expensive) house. With nice surrounding property.

I'd pick a good university where private accomodation is highly sought after. I would put aside a portion of the 1 million to buy as many 2-3 bedroom apartments as I can. For the rest of the money it will be used in refurbishment if the place looks shabby. Then I'll put in the basic necessities and rent it out. Now and again, when I get more money, I'll add on more property. Then I'll live off the rent for the rest of my life with no worries.

I would definitely buy a very huge house, a lake house would be great too and then I'd go around the world and go shopping!
Hello, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Gucci, Coach.
Hello jewelries.
and Hello World! :)

btw, I would try to save some and place it in a bank account.

In STORES only?

Well, I guess a car dealership is technically a "store"... I could use a new car, my current one is from '94. And since you're a friend, I might buy you a car, too-- what do you want? Next stop would probably somewhere like Central Market (A swank grocery around here) to pick up lots of food, and a stock of good wine... If I'm gonna be out spending money, I'm gonna be well fed doing so! After that I might surf on over to amazon.com and put the approximately 300 items on my wishlist into the shopping cart and have them sent overnight.
