The only thing we really "Waste" money on is casino night. Hubby and I go about once a month, and spend $100-$150.

Otherwise, I consider the following not wasteful, but still expensive:

I buy 75-100 bags of corn per year , and I feed the deer on my property year round. (yes it is legal here)
I buy higher quality pet food (Taste of the Wild) for the dog and cats. Roughly $45/bag I also buy canned food for kitty breakfasts. $15/month
My truck payment. But hey a girl has to have her truck! 2009 F-150

Extra treats at the grocery store for the chickens! (Cherry tomatoes, kale, cabbage) (this will come out of my garden this year)
Lumber to build new chicken coop and run this spring.

This year I will be spending money to start a garden. But I do not consider this wasteful, because it will feed my family. Same goes for spending money on hunting licenses.

My biggest weakness is the grocery store. I like good food. We don't eat out very often, because DH travels for work and eats out 4 or 5 days a week. He loves to come home to tuna noodle casserole.
I have stopped buying books, and have started getting them from the library. I do get my nails done every three or so weeks. I use them like tools. I love my acrylic nails. I do spend around 20 or so at Starbucks per month on ice teas. I also think I waste too much money on prescription drugs. We have insurance which I know is a blessing, but we are still paying nearly 200 per month for prescription drugs. It would be okay if I felt better, and was in less pain.

Our big hobby is the pets. They keep me moving and having to do things everyday. Plus they are company when I am on my own.

Internet download for my addiction. Anyone else with more than a few gigabytes to spare??

80% of my spending money goes to my reef tanks... i'm in two saltwater fish clubs, one reef club, it's insane... but i'm slowly getting over it and getting into the chicken scene a lot more... and it's better because the reef tank hobby has a bunch of haters and greedy people... i ♥ the chicken community... everyone is so nice, kind, helpful and encouraging... but my passion is reef tanks... it's also where my most of my money comes from...


sigh...

It got to the point I was reading old sailors diaries just to avoid spending money on books.... hahaha.

(y'know, after I got the first bill)

I waste money on eating out (mostly because I hate to cook and it is easy) and going out with friends to have drinks/food. I also waste money on the newest beauty products, getting treatments at the salon, clothes, jewelry, decor for the house, furniture I don't "need," ummm....yea, I waste A LOT of money! Of course, I spend money on my chicks, but I don't consider that a "waste."
