Have you used Bitcoin as Real money to buy Real/physical goods?

[RyanX]

You don't need to wait for every single store to accept bitcoin.
Get Bitcoin debit card (there are few available) that works for you.

These cards auto-convert your bitcoin balance to dollars during purchase, so store does not even need to know anything about bitcoin.
I used shift card which uses very fair rate (middle between Coinbase bid/ask spread at the time of purchase) and no extra fees, besides cash withdrawals.

that not using bitcoin directy though, you need to use it directly as it is real money, you have purse.io to use it, why no one is taking advantage of the discount, there,, is beyond me...

I will use a service if the store will hold the bitcoin for some time, even if it holds the bitcoin for 1 day, it is good for me.

[watashi-kokoto]

yes

[elDano]

I've spent my bitcoin on buying several goods.
Mostly only and here on this forum. But also with bitmaintech buying Asic miners.

Thats a good idea to have a bitcoin card which transfer amount in terms of dollar to the shop. I have used the amount earned from bitcoin only after converting my bitcoin to real money as my place was not much developed to the technological growth of bitcoin.

[Altynbekova]

Yes ofcourse some one have bought something physical with bitcoin.
Just something is nice even if it is 1 dollar worth of bitcoin.

I just bought a backpack in blackfriday.

Wow I dont know much about mining so I am really thumbs to those who knows something about it. It is really hard to learn about it, too many details to consider before starting. Profit will be there once you have more knowledge.

[Premium Account Reseller]

Yes. Kitchen appliances, tv, blu ray player, clothes, cellphone and garden equipment.

[nerFohanzo]

Well yes, i bought some clothing. but i think OP means in real life.
Then my answer is no. This is due the fact not many shops accept bitcoin.
Which is quite a shame.

It's not shame mate, you need to have patience as there are many countries who have not even heard about bitcoins so expecting from them that they start accepting bitcoin as a mode of payment is simply not possible, bitcoin still needs a time and support to grow and the day will come when we will pay only in bitcoins.

[danherbias07]

That is a lot of thing you got to buy. Where exactly did you buy all those things? Stores here in us who accepts bitcoin is really hard to find. It is like they are hidden in our country. 

[Laila10]

I have uses my bitcoin to top up my phone and buying shirt from my friend. That what I've did with my bitcoin so far.

Good thing your wallet have that kind of option? Some wallets dont have the paying thing. Where you can pay your bills and phone bills. My wallet can also do buy prepaid top ups for my phone.

What I mean is send my bitcoin to my friend that accept bitcoin as payment option mate..

It will takes long time before bitcoin being accept by people over the world, all we can is spreading bitcoin in our environment..

Today i posted my first order through purse.io, testing the mechanisms, i'm pretty sure i'll be a lot satisfied whit it.

[bitgolden]

I used Bitcoin often to purchase some services and goods online
And i hope that it becomes soon a global currency , so we can easily trading with Bitcoin's currency offline as well

Now Bitcoin is becoming more famous day by day and yes online usage of Bitcoin is more common  and possible in almost all counties. As it is growing in a rapid speed, the day is not far when Bitcoin is available for offline use also.

Well, I have used Bitcoin to purchase goods online. Last year I purchased a core miner, and paid with bitcoin. It was also shipped down to me directly, the shipping fee was also paid with bitcoin.

[coinplus]

I haven’t used bitcoin to purchase online before. I am the type that likes to purchase from Amazon, and bitcoin is not accepted. So, I haven’t made use of it to purchase, but I hope very soon I will be using bitcoin to buy goods online.

I am also waiting for it to be global so that including me everyone become able to purchase with it as fiat money can buy. There are a number of countries which not even proceeded from their local currency to the USD. So waiting ....

So you must have a lot of bitcoin now because you cant use it from different kind of purchasing websites. I think there is a lot there who accepts bitcoin. But keeping it is much more better.

Yeah, holding it at a moment is the best thing to do, don't spend your bitcoins on shopping as you can also shop using fiat so treat bitcoin as a investment and keep it safe for the future, its better to sell a part of bitcoins when price reaches the moon, I haven't bought any physical goods as I treat bitcoin as an investment.

In order for Bitcoin to become more valuable, it has to be valued by more people. Spending bitcoin will help spread the knowledge of it, which will make more people aware of it, which will make them value it.

Try to get your local shop to accept Bitcoin, and then spend it there to make it more valuable!

Using it frequently will also help the circulation. If there are some spare it might be better to use it. Hold your other coins but also help in the movement of bitcoin currency just by spending some. Just imagine how many will spend everyday and that will be a good thing.
