You have 15$. How would you spend it so that you'll be the happiest you can be for 15$ ?

And yes you have to spend it all
Edit: There are a lot of little good things in these answers that I often ignore. Thanks everyone.
It depends on what I'm trying to maximize.
If I just want the happiness spike ASAP, then I would just buy $15 worth of Magic cards, or maybe a booster pack or three, depending on the set.
If I'm trying to maximize my overall happiness over any amount of time, I think spending $15 on something reusable, like a nice pair of socks or a hat would work out for me.
If I want to maximize happiness in general, then spending it on someone else I care about does double duty. It makes someone else happy, and I get happiness from being involved in the process.
An edible
A 40
A little Caesars pizza, crazy bread
Give it to your dad for last night!
Haha, got 'em!
convert it to $1 and $2 coins. get the best super glue I can for $12
buy a $1 bag of popcorn (go pop it at home)
glue the remaining $2 coin to the path somewhere visible and near a bench so I can watch.
sit, with popcorn, and watch people try to pick up the glued $2 coin for as long as I feel entertained
Send a gift to a friend. I don't know what I would send, but it would make them happy and it would make me happy, so it's a win-win. Mind you,I should actually just do that
I'd give it to a homeless person or another person in need
Buy $15 worth of Taco Bell.
Approximately ~7 different packs of Haldiram's Minute Khana.
It'll keep me going another week or so, and is (hopefully) a little healthier than ramen! Certainly more flavorful, at least
Do like GeoWizard. Pocket the money and start walking in a direction. See how far you can get on the money. Buy simple needed items like water and snacks. Accept charity. Speak with people. Seems extremely fulfilling!
Buy my dog a delicious chew treat of her choice and watch her devour it.
Pizza
I'm buying ingredients to bake brownies for my wife. Or with her.
Probably spend it on a favorites restaurant visit
Can get a night in a small campsite for about £15.
Even cheaper if i'm only taking my tent
Hmm. I am not convinced I can be much happier for $15 but a coffee for me, split a breakfast sandwich with my husband in the little Cuban cafe near me. Or buy gas and a diet coke and go by myself, alone, to the beach, that is such a relaxing activity.
Two plates of rice or noodles with vegetables and salmon. Delicious. Actually, highest ROI that you could possibly hope to achieve in the universe.
15 $1 dollar coins stashed around the house for me to stumble upon later.
Pound of good coffee.
Taco Bell most likely.
Turn it into a roll of quarters and fuck myself
Minecraft is on sale
Buy some games on discount. I can easily get Fallout 4, or about 7-10 other games on steep discount. PC gaming is the best.
Good chocolate.
Buy a mini Blåhaj :3
Tacos
What a cool question, actually.
In my current situation? Probably a coffee date with someone new.
In a hypothetical "blank slate" scenario? Some easy way to play music. An mp3 player or something among those lines.
Alternatively - I could absolutely purchase a used dumb phone for that amount of money, as well as free calls within network for a year (in my country).
There's an independent coffee shop in the park by me, so a cappuccino, a big slice of carrot cake and just enough change for a lottery ticket.
- Convert it into 1,500 pennies
- Fashion a slingshot from a balloon, tube, and some tape.
- Have fun shooting cans, balloons, people, etc.
put it towards a train ticket to visit the fam :)
Two bags of cherry sours!
A pint of guinness.
3 tomato plants
Chocolate.
Downvote me all you want but I'd buy $15 of Bitcoin then wait a few years. So far I have been immensely happy with every single one of my BTC purchases and I don't think that's going to change any time soon. Whatever amount I buy now will be the same % of the total supply (21 million coins) in 5 or 10 years time which is more than I can say about pretty much anything else.
$10 for a bag of rhinestones, $5 for glue
Or weed, but weed is temporary
Take the train to a nice walking spot.
Well if we are going to min-max our money then I guess
IDK, probably go to the import store near my house and pick up some white rabbit milk candies to start. Then spend the rest on cheap snacks at the dollar store. However much it left, if it's just change, probably throw downtown where I live because I can guarantee some homeless drug addict might scramble to pick it up.
Buy a kebab. Really not much you can do with $15.
Ice cream for the wife and kids :)
Go somewhere further away by a coach bus. Or maybe a 1st class train ticket (as a student I can travel in 2nd class for free in most trains).
I like travelling. Just sitting in a bus/train doing nothing.
A cheap pair of earbuds.
I lose and break them all the time, so I don't buy nice ones, and I don't get around to replacing them until I'm really desperate. I think it's close to that time, because I tried to think of something that would make me happy right now, and my first thought was music

That's just enough to buy my wife and I ice cream cones at the best place in town and leave enough of a tip that we don't feel like we're being cheap. Date night sorted!
go to a recycling center
find a cool looking
pentium 4 shitboxretro computerA decent sized package of medium quality chocolate.
10 Robux
Save it until I can afford to spend it in a 3rd world country for at least 5x the return value
