Most of my sats are spent to upvote sn content and orange pill close circles.

I've bought dinner at Dunston's Steakhouse in Dallas, TX. They accept Bitcoin LN and chain via BTC Pay Server. Even better, I think they actually hold the Bitcoin and understand the mission.

I found it on the website: https://btcmap.org/map

I'm loving this map website for finding places that accept Bitcoin. However, I've found many of the places on it don't actually accept it, so use it with caution.

My friend and I use sats to pay each other for restaurant bills. We use it instead of using Splitwise app.

I buy pasture raised eggs at my local meetup for sats.

I've mostly just used Bitrefill to buy gift cards for online purchases while I'm at home. I've done it for Amazon, REI, and most recently paid for my Southwest flight for the Thanksgiving holiday by buying a gift card for the exact amount of the purchase when I'm ready to pay.

For a little while I was trying to use Bitrefill to pay for food purchases when out of the house, but it was too much of a hassle. I mostly pay for stuff like that with cash now. Also I prefer to go to smaller local businesses when I'm eating out rather than big corporate chains.

I recently paid for my VPN with Bitcoin. Unfortunately they do not accept LN payments yet though. I like that I was able to do this without giving them any personal information at all.

Other than that I've made a few donations with Bitcoin to worthy causes.

I've been trying to find a local business that accepts Bitcoin, but have not had any luck. If I could find a taco shop that was convenient that accepts Bitcoin I would go there all the time.

Also almost all spending is followed by an immediate purchase of more Bitcoin so my stack never goes down.

I exchanged seeds of cannabis, hot peppers and san pedro cacti with Bitcoiners I found on my meetup, Reddit and someone from SN.

I will grow plants and make seeds from them and distribute them through the community next fall!

Spent sats tipping podcasters in Fountain.

Also spent sats in the Wikileaks shop to buy a Free Assange t-shirt

Some stickers, on-demand 3D prints, VPN vouchers, Telegram & SN tips.

There are some bars in a few towns near me on btcmap I’m going to check out soon.

Big on spend and replace as often as I can in 2023 and orangepilling independent business owners.

Clothing, computer hardware. Good thing I don't have a direct way to buy guitars & amps with sats, or I’d be in real trouble!

some tipping and such on a few platforms, maybe 15k sats total, local ..organic produce.. delivery, around 1.5m.

I've only used it for tipping jb55 right now for his work on Damus 🤣

I buy farm fresh eggs from a tiny chicken farm near by. They like to denominate in USD so my sat price fluctuates but it's been 44-61k sats per dozen! An egregious amount, I know, but someone who would never have been self custodying now is and also the man (it's a couple) loses a lot of money per year at the local poker game so there is some balance there.

Hi, I don't spend my sats, I pay in fiat, I only stack the sats.

I haven't spend my sats, I'm still stacking

I spend sats tipping the fine folks here, of course!

I've bought a t-shirt from https://lightning.store and it was around $30

So far only person to person payment for services. I try and use it when I can if the other party is open to it.

Orange pill friends. Bought a book from Konsensus Network.

I bought my entire steam library of joltfun.

I coordinate several people and we buy beef (whole beef) from Jason Wrich (@beefbeesbitcoin) a few times a year, and we pay in Bitcoin. It's on-chain given the size of the transaction though.

I'm tipping content I learn from mostly on value-for-value platforms

Just incase someone is looking for a cool place online to spend sats, take a look at https://lightning.store/.

I love the Nirvana/Satoshi tee.

I only spend fiat, I save in Sats

Nice try, IRS.

Nice try IRS

I sent my buddy 7000 sats so we can split a whole pizza

Bought beer in Bitcoin Valley (Rovereto, northern Italy) with 20% discount.

They accepted my 0-conf transaction as payment using some purple app.

Later we dined at a somewhat expensive restaurant and they also, surpsisingly, took 0-conf as payment (this was before LN was generally used).

Most of the sats I earn in Stacker News and Add Slice, goes to content creator whose use ALBY address.

I spend sats on tipping people. I don’t really feel comfortable spending Bitcoin at all. Do you repurchase the sats you spend? I hope you do.
