Re: What have you just bought?
I was in Currys the other day for a new headset - one of the few in stock.
Big place, 11 staff, 3 customers (one that was returning a purchase).
The young(ish) girl that dealt with me had no idea how to get the security tag off, then spent 5 minutes trying to work the 'till' and asking me about extended insurance and all that extra crap.

Another mattress topper to add to my bed story topper. They aren't foam of any kind. They are both stuffed generously especially the bed story topper. The additional topper is a aircloud 6cm deep topper. Both priced very low. eBay £28 bed story. Vinted £10 aircloud.

Re: What have you just bought?
Well on the 11/10 I went to the Fountain Pen show in London and bought a Conway Stewart Alan Turin Fountain pen, it is a limited edition of 251, It was RRP £690, but at the show I paid £620.
It writes lovely, next year I might get a Churchill one similar price

Re: What have you just bought?
I can think of far better things to spend £620 on than a pen!!!

Re: What have you just bought?
I am all for buying things you want over things you need. Life is for living and you can't take it with you . I keep buying new computers. My Mum has left me 5K in her Will so I intend to buy a new PC around a 9800X3d CPU even though I have a 13700k PC and a 14700K PC but feck it
