      Has anyone bought things in a lucid dream?

      Once in a regular dream, I was at a small drug store and I took a strawberry wafer out of the package but when I bit into it I saw on the wall it said $6.00 each!

      I wonder if dream stores always charge outrageous prices!

      Hell no dogg, I wouldn't pay for something in my own dream Joe! Just the though of actually making a transaction in an LD is funny though. I'm seriously rude to DC's.

      The one time I can remember buying something was some candy, and it wasn't very expensive.

      I have no clue how much it cost but I paid with a 5 and exact change (I was like "hell ya, got exact change" in the dream... I just like paying with exact), so I feel like it was $5 and change or i got some $1's back from the cashier.

      Also I was looking for a lawnmower for my dad in that dream and none of em were over $700

      but I am extremely cheap in real life and that might have something to do with dream prices being low. Don't know what would cause peoples dreams to try and rip them off.

      I do recall buying food in my LDs but I don't remember ever paying, and that's with all my dreams so technically it isn't buying now is it.

      Heh, never have the chance (all mine as of yet have been disappointingly 10 seconds long [give or take], with a few exceptions). I like my DC's, so I will have to try dropping by a shop if I get the chance.

      In one LD, I bought something for my fellow LDer, but I wasn't fully aware that I was really dreaming. Maybe about 2%, but i still had full control..
      We were in a vintage store, and I had to buy him this crystal orb, I didn't have any money on me, so I had to make a random bill materialize in one of the drawers..
      I actually remember handing it to the cashier O.o

      Things I've done while Lucid:

      - Flying - Dream Rewind and Fast Forward
      - Invisibility - Shapeshifting - Grown Wings
      - Summoning [mastered (?)] - Zip lining
      - Fireball

      I've only purchases drugs in a regular dream. I haven't picked anything up in a lucid yet. Except for maybe a few things in my dream room.
      Every passing minute is another chance to turn it all around.

      I once bought something like a museum ticket. I was wondering how to pay it and then noticed some kind of token in my hand. When I gave that one to the guy, he looked at me with a sigh, but gave me the ticket. Another time I bought a beer at a self service restaurant like place. This time I just found some coins in my hand. The beer did taste good, but I did get it in a strange glass, even though I saw they had also proper mugs.
      I often wonder how will I pay for stuff, if I am at a market kind of place, but so far I always had some kind of payment in my hands when needed.

      Usually I dream of buying food items but is at the food court or food stall type of scenario where I would have to pay the person at the same time get the food from the same place. The pricing for my dream of food is a few dollars and I would usually give like 20 or 10 and get change back which does not tally the amount I should get back it's more. The pricing I think depends on what your country's cost of living is like I live in Singapore where hawker food is cheap but other stuff like electronic stuff is very expensive. It also could stem from day residue maybe you had a inner thought that a wafer could cost 6 in the future since cost of things are going up and that could make it's way to your dreams at night...'inner fears'.

      No, I've never bought something in a dream. I've just stolen things. x3

      Seriously though, I have looked at something and remember the price being $78.86. I can't remember what it was though.
      We all live in a kind of continuous dream. When we wake, it is because something,
      some event, some pinprick even, disturbs the edges of what we have taken as reality.
