What's been your weirdest purchase lately?

As the title suggests... let's hear about your random midnight online purchases. I think my most unnecessary (perhaps not weird) purchase has been one of those pancake batter dispensers, simply because I was fed up of what a mess we made on the ONE Sunday in forever that we made pancakes.

A margarita salt rimmer. I’ve been drinking them like water in the good weather and am fed up having to tip salt onto a plate and then wash it etc etc.

This thread is great, it’s given me so many ideas!

Squeaky dog balls
Whistling dog balls
Ice making machine
'Black is my happy colour' T-shirt
Truffle honey
Two types of risotto rice
Moth balls

Nearly all ordered late at night, in bed - and totally sober!

@CakeandCoffeeQueen it's this one:

I did install myself but I live in the US where the plumbing fittings may be a little different. The one thing I needed to do which wasn't included with the kit was replacing the rigid metal pipe which feeds water to my toilet cistern with a flexible connector pipe.

That all makes it sound much more complicated than it was, but it wasn't difficult and I have zero plumbing experience!
