Lunch break poll, Appliance vs. Italy

podlingSo a quick poll. I already think I know what my decision is, but ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tanaise told me I should make more polls (don't worry, my paid thingy ends in like, 2 weeks, so it won't last long) and that this would make an ideal subject.
Okay. I have little money but I have dreams! Anyway, for my b-day next year (which is 10 months away) my parents had decided to send me away. They'd started with Florida, but then when I expressed an interest in going to Italy, they jumped on that bandwagon. So they decided to provide me with $1000. But the trip I wanted to take will by itself (ie without airfare or spending money) cost $1300. I would anticipate that I'd need to save a bit on my own, which is unlikely and laughable at this point in my non-cable-affording universe. So they came up with an alternate plan of replacing some of my broken or soon to be broken appliances (washer, dryer, and stereo). So I need to decide what I want to do.
Short version... I will have money to do something with, and that something is not to include paying off my student loans. What should I do with it? And no, giving it to people isn't going to be the answer I go with. ;)
