I've used my bitcoin to pay for a burger combo at a downtown burger place.  Besides that, I'm just holding on to it for the future.  Right now it is far too low in price for me to justify spending it.

bitcoin is finite, if enough more people gets in, the price will rise. To be stable, there should be no more big grow in adoption. So bitcoin price will remain going up and sometimes down due to action of people bothered with btc growth, and will be more value storage than a way of exchange, until there is no more room to grow

It is a flawed system, for sure. But if Bitcoin was about nothing but the storage of wealth, there would be no reason to cash out until you needed the money for emergencies. Everyone would just buy and never sell, and there would be only a small trickle there, meaning that the market would be stagnant in terms of volume. This is the opposite of what Bitcoin is designed for.

That are really good examples, why I can't spend bitcoins. I don't use Ebay(anymore). I don't buy luxury real estate(I can't afford normal real estate without going into debt). I wouldn't call buying Bullions USING bitcoins, since Bullions are just another form of speculation/savings, it's like buying altcoins with BTC.

I live in Austria, which is one of the richest countries in the world, but People here are just very slow, when it Comes to Adoption of new Technologies. I might go to Berlin in Summer and buy some coffee with BTC.
The only other realistic use of BTC for me is gyft, but the last time I bough something on Amazon, I didn't think about that

i pay with bitcoin wherever i can. sadly my local coffeeshop and supermarkets dont accept bitcoins..

but ordering food and paying with bitcoins works brilliantly.

i also buy back the btc i spend! boosting the btc economy while still keeping the same btc holding seems a good choice to me

I make it a point to spend it but would like to be saving more as well.

Would if I could, but very rarely do I find a seller of something I want that accepts Bitcoin. if I expect price to grow (which I do) I can just buy more if I think my Bitcoin holding gets too low. By using Bitcoin for purchases I'm indicating to the seller it was not a bad idea starting to accept Bitcoin, and maybe in a few cases make the seller himself spend the Bitcoin somewhere rather than directly convert it to fiat.

That's a nice healthy cross section!

I don't have enough to use. Yet!
