Once again, I am above average. Wait, should I be proud of that? Meh, it is what it is. And clearly, I'm not alone. According to Finder.com, Americans spent nearly 40-billion dollars on drunk purchases in the past 12 months. That's a nearly $10 billion jump from the previous year. Yowzers! Do you think it's because it's so much easier to order stuff? "Alexa, order a new vacuum!"

Apparently, the study shows that less people made purchases while under the influence, but as we talked about above, those that did clearly spent a lot more money this year - over $700. Compared to 2017 when the average American spent just $206 per year.

 

The most popular purchase was actually food. Following closely in its footsteps (pun intended), shoes. One of the most shocking purchases, in my opinion, was a car! No lie, 10% of people have purchased a car while drunk. "Alexa, order a Tesla!" Oh my lanta, could you imagine that phone call from the bank?

What is the craziest thing you bought while drinking?
