			Twelve months car tax for £125. 
The insurance renewal reduced price has all but paid for this.

			Skoda Kodiaq SE L 1.5 TSI DSG, and rear-view camera and space saver wheel added to the standard spec - managed to get £5,350 of the list price.
 Delivered before end of July, so my lad can have my 7 year old Ford Focus Estate.

			A pack of 5 white washable face masks from a UK company. Bad enough we'll have to wear masks from the 24th to go shopping but I don't want disposables adding to all the plastic on the planet.    
3m HDMI lead. I'm using VM's TVgo on the laptop to drive the HD ready TV in the kitchen as the V6 has no SCART to drive the modulator, but only have a 2m lead and it's a bit short.
 
A plus is that HD channels look better.

			Disposable face masks - prices already starting to rise.  That way I can put some in glove box, pocket etc so can slip one on as required and not having to go home to fetch a more substantial one.  Not going to wear where not required.

			I find the most comfortable mask I've used is the N95 medical mask sold by ukmeds, tried their black one and it doesn't fit well and makes glasses steam up! 
Luckily I only wear a mask in Tesco.

			Soap - not a good idea - can damage some coatings.
