Yes, Sometimes I do spend bitcoins, Not that occasionally though since bitcoin is much harder to get that the traditional payment methods that are relatively easier to get and fund than buying bitcoin which is always a "process".

I spend sometimes when I see good price of it, but majority of them I prefer to hold especially at this stage when we are so close to halving, spending at that time would be more convenient.

In real life, there are only places where you can actually use your coins instantly without converting it to fiat, Lucky if you are living on those places, you can always use your coins, but being on places where you cannot use them raw is also an advantage, by that we could always save a lot while waiting.

There are only few places where bitcoin being accepted as payment.. In Brazil and US. and almost whole rest of the world are only using bitcoin on the web. using bitcoin in real life for majority of people isn't possible yet. some bitcoin lovers started accepting bitcoin nowadays to spread bitcoin around the world, I know few travelling companies also accepting bitcoin which is very good thing, with that we can spend bitcoin with more compatibility.

In my country (in south-east Asia), there are only a handful of restaurants and bars which accept Bitcoin. I have spent BTC a couple of times in these places. Other than that, I have mostly relied on the online dark markets to spend my Bitcoin. Not that I am spending them for drugs.... I am making perfectly legal purchases, such as computer parts and accessories. Earlier, Bitmit was a great place to spend the coins. After they closed down, there is no reliable online market available to purchase various items with BTC.

It doesn't get much better in the States ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Very few merchants directly accept grc, but there are some online services that allow you to buy virtual gift cards to a bunch of places you normally spend money at. A lot of restaurants though ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Yeah numbers of bitcoin users here in PH is not that much but there are lots of useful services online with the help of our local wallet exchange. Those services are really helpful. And with no doubt because of that services offered by our local wallet exchange, it will give trial to to those new bitcoin users here in PH to test where they can use their bitcoin.

If you don't have an option of spending directly, then converting it to fiat is the only option left for you, as I cannot find any shop in my area where I can spend it.
I did do that, and I think it's more fun when going spend with friends in mall. but did not rule if it has a lot of stores that accept bitcoin, maybe I will always spend using bitcoin

I'm not going to spend all that my earning. maybe I'll make a financial manage. so I understand bitcoin entry. including from Siganture campaign I more often to save money from Siganture campaign. because the income from here is quite large. I can not possibly spend it all

You are right, there are no coffee shops just like in UK, don't worry friend, soon they will adopt it. That's our way to spend coins is by just exchanging it to real money, and go to the store and pay physical and real money, but still we used coins in real life.
