We personally have done some ridiculously inconvenient things to save not enough money. When you realize that you're spending 3 hours and gas money to go to a store the next town over save three dollars on apple juice, it really makes you reevaluate how much your time is worth. That said, we love a deal and here are stories of people's sketchy cheap buys that ended up being their best purchases. On the other side there are people who try to bully and swindle people out of their dollars or complain over the contents of a dollar taco, and those entitled people need to pack up their rotten attitudes.

These x-tremely sweet, rip-roarin' train stunts are all you need to get your engine running. There's sick multi-track drifting, sweet jumps and rad synchronized moves all set to awesome music.
Life is a roller coaster of high highs and low lows. Some of these low moments are extremely trashy in nature. Most people wouldn't steal someone's ashes or jog around a city pooping behind cars, but alas, incredibly trashy moments still happen, and they are freakin' ridiculous.

We're not sure what compels someone to strap on some skates and bomb downhill in an all out slippery race to break their own tailbones, but it sure is thrilling to watch. Here's a compilation of falls, fails, and action from the scary-looking, action-packed sport of competitive downhill ice skating.
In case you missed it, it is insanely, bone-chilling (if not shattering) cold out in the midwest. Check this AskReddit we ran the other day, that includes people out there, sharing just what -30 degrees feels like. They're trudging through a polar vortex, for the ages. The pictures surfacing on Twitter, look like nothing short of an Ice Age kind of crazy, weather event. Seriously, I've heard word of -30 out there, and I suspect it's been even colder. We hope everyone's staying warm from the cold, and keeping safe!
Let's rock a quick 5:00am wind turbine BASE jump before we head to work...

Zhou Wenlong and Jiang Huizhu got a very memorable wedding, saying 'I do' in a hammock suspended 180 meters in the air at the Shiniuzhai National Geopark in Hunan province.

The first bit of the Megavalanche is really more about dodging all the fallen racers squirming in the slush to get back on their bikes. Jamie Nicoll shows that’s no easy task, as he goes down twice in the first two minutes of the mass-start downhill. Nicoll still managed a 7th place finish.

Mind the gap.
Professional skier Cody Townsend won "Line of the Year" at the 2014 Powder Awards with this death defying attempt in Alaska, which he describes as "the scariest thing I've ever done."

Filmed over two years using state of the art techniques and technologies, this movie offers a unique glimpse into the journey of self-discovery that every skier experiences.
