If you had £70 to spend on Amazon what would you buy?

[sylbunny]

I have £70 on Amazon vouchers to spend. I'd like to buy something nice just for me, maybe frivolous or a little bit luxurious. I know it's not a great deal of money but I don't want to waste it on boring sensible things! What would people buy from Amazon for £70-£100 (I can top up if needed)?

Kindle

@nokidshere

That's a bit like 'how long is a piece of string'. Depends what you think is frivolous and personal to you? Do you have hobbies? Are you a lady that lunches? Are you into drinking or eating?

If it were me I'd spend it on craft stuff because that's what makes me happy and relaxed. But Amazon is a very big place so,the possibilities are endless

That's the thing, I don't have a clue so it's nice to see how other people would spend it to get some ideas. My interests all seem a bit boring and mundane and my mind filters back to the practical like nice picture frames or some kindle books when actually I probably need something just completely out the box!

What would you buy? Not if you were me ... what would you buy for you?

For me it would be icing tips, paint, molds, knives, paint, powders 😁

I've just seen a pair of wrap-around Renpho foot and leg massagers for just under £60. If someone were to give me an Amazon voucher now, that's what I'd buy.

A picnic rucksack. With all the plates and cutlery and stuff in. I did exactly that a few weeks back. Had vouchers, I am chuffed, it's got a proper dolls house/tea-set vibe to it, well for me anyway :)

It doesn't matter if it's boring as long as it makes you happy 😁

Silk pillowcases. I bought some recently from Amazon and they're lovely

Probably something for the garden, some sort of ornament or mirror.

pure linen pillowcase with my initial embroidered on.

My suggestion is a lamp and you'll still have money left over!

Wooden Floor Lamp for Living Room, Bedroom and Other Rooms, Reading Standing Lamp 160 cm Height LED Standing Light – Creative Modern DIY Adjustable Shapes (Khaki)

I know it's not quite the right season but I love my heated throw from Amazon; perfect on chilly nights while watching tv!

Foot and back massager.... I actually did by myself one earlier in the year

I'd get numerous phone leads, a charger for my laptop to leave downstairs rather than schlepping up and down the stairs,

I've always got an Amazon 'to buy soon' list, usually after some research. Although I don't think anything falls into a 'treat' category really!

On my current list is:

• Microfiber beach/gym towels
• New breadbin
• Tea/coffee/sugar canisters
• Camp beds

Don't forget Amazon do footwear.
I'd get boots and gin if I had anything left over.

Books.

Today on Amazon I bought hand soap, a walking stick, and a tray to carry my breakfast on. These were all things I needed. If I had £70 to spend on fun, I'd get books.

You know Amazon has a sex shop?

A weighted blanket? Liquid collagen? Kaweco fountain pen and every colour ink cartridge?

Today? A fondue set.

Electric guitar set with headphones. Just spent an hr browsing!

Never found any nice PJs or kimonos on Amazon

A soda stream!

I would get books, and some skin care products.

@lostinabook

Bone conduction swimming headphones. Niche I know but I can't justify the 60 quid at the moment

Ooh which ones are you looking at , keen to get some myself , currently using wireless Bluetooth earbuds secured under a swimming hat

That wouldn't fit into the budget.... I'd suggest getting a Squier. They are a sub brand of Fender. But I'd go into a shop and get the initial setup as well, otherwise it could be terrible if you are unlucky. or 2nd hand.
