The Crud

A name for the depression you feel after making a large monetary purchase. Often associated with anxiety and regret, even if there was initial excitement and joy leading up to and immediately following the purchase.

You just bought a new car or a flat screen TV... or you just returned from an exensive vacation. "My new TV is awesome, but I still have the crud from buying it." or "Today's my first day back at work after our trip to the South of France. Man have I got the vacation crud."
