Re: What have you just bought?

New bed, matress, vacum cleaner and cooked. Matress was 500 quid and still doesn't feel as good quality as the old one

Satisfying seeing the dust spin around in the cyclone cleaner though

Will you marry me, only 2 pairs of shoes!!. My wife is a size six & has great problem getting clothes to fit , when she finds any thing she buys it in every colour in the store !! .

Vets was bought buy the "Family" to add to group businesses, I just signed the cheque. Needed bigger house at home & its cheaper in the long run to buy at Walt Disney world than to stay on site or rent. Now I rent out & get a discount on park tickets! Change car every year,company perk Tv is another story keeping up with the "Jones`s" so to speak. I just love weetabix .That reminds me need to get so PG tips for daughter !!

Re: What have you just bought?

Mac book pro 15" non retina display.

To go with my new DSLR for photography stuff. To replace my ageing iMac (late 2007)

Also a 2 week holiday to Turkey for the family and a trip to New York later in the year.

Just bought the fastest USB stick I've ever used. 64 gig and copies at over 100MB/s from my SSD. USB 3 of course.

l gather jo that your two pairs of show you bought will go with the other hundreds of pairs of shoes that you have already got because that's certainly the case in our household as my partner seems to buy a new pair every week.

Not hundreds. I did have a clear out a while back when it looked as though my days of wearing high heels were over. I donated them to a local charity and I believe they raised a healthy amount.

I have to admit though that I still buy far too many pairs, like Itshim's wife I will buy the same shoes in different colours if given the chance. Luckily my husband is happy to indulge me, he says that it's a relatively harmless addiction and worth the money for the pleasure it gives me. He does, however, open certain cupboards with great trepidation as he has been attacked in the past by cascades of badly stacked shoe boxes, poor man.
