Talking What if....

... $50 dropped from the sky with a note on it that said "Must use for something photography-related!" What would you do with it?
Purely hypothetical, but I think it will be fun to hear everyone's answers!!

Not much on my photography list for $50 or under, but I suppose maybe some cleaning supplies.

LOL, ya pretty much.

Here's a box of Q-tips. The other $9 left from that would be spent on beer.

Crowbar, gloves, ski mask, duffel bag. From there, I can smash-and-grab a D300s and all the lenses, flashes, camera cards, etc. I need.

For $50 you could buy a lens cap or even a micro-fiber cloth.

Weak! I'd take pretty much any thing with the word "nikon" on it. Especially the D3x

OK, now I see what the difference between Canon and Nikon shooters are.
