What would you buy with £75?

What indulgent treat would you buy with £75 from Amazon?

DVDs of programmes from ages ago that no one is realistically going to add to streaming services any time soon. Think Dickens/historical adaptations from the 80s etc.

It's just my thing. I love them.

A GHD hairdryer. I want the Aura but I think it's discontinued...

3 boxes of (x20) kimchi noodles
Or
Graphic novels (£75 will probably buy 4-6)

Silk pyjamas

The reckon hair dryer and volumiser and a projection lamp are currently sitting in my Amazon basket.

Books

Lego (isolation addiction)

Cheap kindle (£70)
£5 on a book

I am dreadful of thinking of things I want. I have been told I can choose £160 for 10 years service as a foster carer and I can't think of anything i want. My eldest son has not given me a Xmas gift just some flowers as I could not tell him anything I wanted but when I think of something I have promised to tell him. As you get older I find it harder to think of anything.

Assuming it's a voucher, I would use it for a food shop or something else essential, then use actually cash to go sale shopping elsewhere 🙂

An alexa. Biscuits. Hand cream.

I'd just wait until I found I wanted something and then buy it. Amazon doesn't run out for at least 10 years, if at all, and they're unlikely to go bust.

Or you could buy groceries, petfood or something else and use the money saved anywhere.

I've just bought some nice cosy loungewear, new boots and running shoes in the sales, because I don't think I'd bought any footwear at all since the start of the pandemic, but that was mainly because I couldn't find any boots I liked - I'd ordered about 10 pairs and returned them because they didn't fit or weren't right.

A few new plants for my garden , for the start of Spring..

New running shoes

They last years. I'd just apply it to my account and then use up when I found something I needed.

The 6 newly released hardbacks in my basket

A neom wellness pod

Some waterproof running socks and a running top with a watch hole.

Some swimwear and good quality goggles. Anti chlorine shampoo

Fly London Boots

I got this thing called rapid lash that you put on your eye lashes to make them grow thicker. Seems to be working. Also nice facial moisturiser. And a box of vegan chocolates.

A new hair dryer. I'm still using an ancient one that belonged to my mum who passed away 15 years ago (and it was getting on a bit then!).

If I had £75 to spend on a treat I would try not to give it to Amazon

I used my Amazon vouchers from Christmas to buy a HP sprocket, it prints pics directly from my phone and I use them for memory keeping. I also bought a Phomemo printer for fun.

Some new over ear headphones as mine are too big on my head and slip off.
