..you do not want any books, cds or dvds.

What do you buy?

(I have a voucher, want to buy myself something but am uninspired)

Re-assess life, buy some books.

I got a Rubik’s cube the other day. Always been an ambition of mine to solve it. Nearly there!

2 new saucepan lids. Amazon is my go-to for boring but necessaries.

Something that would make my life a bit easier everyday. For example of I bought a scarf with a zip pocket. I can bring my phone, money etc when I go for walks.

Re-assess life, buy some books.
I've got absolutely tonnes. Really not needing anymore at the moment.

An adult colouring book and some pens

Or - more likely - gin

Reusable sanitary pads. Honestly never thought I would go done that route but after having to look for something softer on my stitches post birth I won’t be going back.

Buy something off a charity wish list.

I'd put it towards some teeth whitening at the moment

In my current basket just waiting to check out

Are they good for heavy flow?

A black cotton lace vintage style parasol, and I might even splash out some of my own money to get a matching fan.

Whatelsecouldibecalled · 13/07/2020 19:54

@sparklefarts yep they are. Black soft lining too so you can’t see it all. Highly recommend

leafeater · 13/07/2020 20:24

Lots of mouse traps.
Wood carving tool for ds
New swimming towel.

Which ones do you have?

lifesalongsong · 13/07/2020 20:31

Unless it has an upcoming expiry date I would never buy something for the sake of it, I'd put it on my account for when there's something I want

FFS why is no one on MN ever allowed to treat themselves...

itsamadmadworld · 13/07/2020 20:54

Cross stitch stuff

A nice porcelain mug which has a lid. They seem a little pricey for what they are . But want one so my coffee doesn't get cold during really long zoom meetings.

On a similar topic, if wfh home more some nice stationery and bits and bobs to make the experience a little nicer

Sorry for double post, app keeps saying can't post and to retry but posts anyway Blush

FourTeaFallOut · 13/07/2020 21:00

I'd add a couple of quid and get this noise cancelling eye mask. In fact, I might buy it now.

FourTeaFallOut · 13/07/2020 21:04

Sorry, that makes it look like I'm selling it. Blush I'm not, I'm sure there are plenty of other noise cancelling eye masks or indeed any number of useless but tempting gadgets that fail to change your life in the way you hope.

AtLeastThreeDrinks · 13/07/2020 22:40

Face masks given the latest announcement! Or some skincare or hair care, the Satin Naturel line has some nice skin serums.
