So I currently have my eye on a lovely lamp from dunelm.Saw it in Pinterest and fell in love with it. Would match perfectly with my living room.
Do I technically need it? Of course not but I want it Grin
What are you currently eyeing up?

A toddler ride on tractor for the garden and a little tikes car. Looks like washing machine is on the way out though so prob won't have the money for garden toys

FB Marketplace and pick up secondhand toys in good condition? :-)

Lakeland are doing 20% off a pizza oven and some stretchy covers for our new garden furniture, so DH doesn’t get the shakes when the grand kids eat the said pizza 🤣

An electric car.
A new house.
Some new trainers.
A whole heap of stationary.
My entire Amazon wishlist and a pile more.

To be fair I will probably just buy some new biros next week and a team of paper. Unless I win the lottery in which case start at the top

A dehumidifier to help laundry dry on the airer as I’m fed up of it taking days. We only have a small yard which only gets sun in the morning so outdoor drying not easy. Then a new kettle and toaster and a tap to replace the one that started dripping in the first lockdown!

Please 🙏 tell me where the pillows are from? Been looking for some after staying in a German hotel but found nothing similar.

A camera bag style handbag... but I can't find a bigger one for all the stuff I need to carry

A necklace with a balloon dog charm on it

One of those plastic rings you can fry an egg in so it forms a perfect circle. Because I live like a rock star 🌟

I'm terrible at dieting but I'm taking Ozempic and have managed to lose 1 1/2 stone in 7 weeks. DH said he thinks I am doing great and told me to choose myself a piece of jewelry. I've picked a 9 CT gold bracelet with large blue topaz pieces. It is arriving by the 24th.

caringcarer · 19/05/2023 22:46

I forgot I also ordered new bras from lilybras.com too.

I have been thinking about taking this ? How do you go about getting it?

Dubarry deck shoes

Who knows if they are comfortable or not?

Bought a Vax one last year, it is so good, dries the washing so quickly and doesn't cost that much.

Circus tickets. Cashmere or yak wool scarf. Various beautiful vases. Typewriter. Plane tickets.

In reality, will buy some supplements once I'm paid.

A stunning but ridiculously expensive full length velvet coat.

My head says it's stupid, but my heart says it will make my life complete.

This is the second recommendation on this thread since I posted, sounds like I should just bite the bullet!

Go for it (currently wearing yoga kitty)!

Nsky62 · 19/05/2023 23:53

A new aeg washing machine, sadly my hiensce one works ok, hate it, no time saver and no steam option, only 4 years old.
worse still just cat and I

Nat6999 · 20/05/2023 00:16

Those lamps from B & M that are White Company dupes
A new washer
A heat pump tumble dryer
New fridge freezer
New microwave
Denby Azure Coast dinner service
New mattress for my bed
New Sofas

My flat needs everything new, redecorating & new carpets in both bedrooms & the hall. I'm saving hard.

snoozingbaby1476 · 20/05/2023 00:18

@tweener that's 3 recommendations. Definitely do it!

VodkaKnockers · 20/05/2023 00:29

A Dyson airwrap but gen cannot justify the cost for another hair tool.

Elemis moisturiser, the good stuff

847arc · 20/05/2023 00:45

A garden bench and an iMac.
Sadly the current bench is still just holding together and my Windows pc works some of the time, providing that you threaten it sufficiently, so I can’t justify either.

Try Coach - I have a camera bag and it's lovely and spacious.
Also - Oliver Bonas have gorgeous ones with a cheaper price tag, that are just as spacious.

John Lewis do a couple of different types of goose down pillows.
Prices vary from expensive to super expensive.
(But I love mine)

Trying to decide if I'm too old for some lovely dungarees I've seen and whether I should get my nose repierced. Also on the lookout out for an antique tea table I can use to WFH.
