<human>: Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell

Originally, I had planned on buying book (house of leaves) and a shirt (its a my little pony shirt, but for the sake of your help, imagine that it is a doctor who, breaking bad, or some other show you like shirt) I am hesitant on buying what I had initially planned, the library is having new copies of the book sent in and I am wondering if a shirt is really worth 30 bucks... I then thought "hey, I could buy a gamecube and a good 25 dollar game with 50 bucks!" But now I'm wondering if buying a console is really worth it, after all, it is just gonna cost more and more money for new games.... what are your suggestions on things to buy?
<bot>: was gonna buy book and shirt, then gamecube and game, now I don't know, help me spend my cash.
