A Rollei Monopod/Selfie stick.
Well it was only £39, over 1/2 price it would be rude not to.

I need to stop buying stuff on Amazon, so far £711 more than the same time last year.

Two return flights Leeds to Larnaca, we’re popping over to North Cyprus for a long weekend (Wed-Sun) with some friends towards the end of May.

Re: What have you just bought?
5 x 12kg sacks of restaurant grade charcoal. (Just under £10 each if you order 5 or more and free delivery if over £30 - used to be £50 so had to buy firelighters else delivery would be £40)
Birthday soon here, so looking around for something I need/want not too expensive.

Re: What have you just bought?
2 sets of garden waste bags (270 ltr and 2x120 ltr) from Lidl @ £7.99 a set. These are really good with two handles on the top and two more at the base to make it easy to upend at the dump and a plastic hoop that keeps the top open. I already had two of the bigger ones but needed the smaller ones as well as a spare.
The garden waste dumpsters cannot have plastic bags in so you have to empty out any and with ordinary flimsy refuse sacks that was a real pain with stuff getting stuck inside.
My sister wanted them as well hence buying two sets. She's on holiday abroad so asked me to get them.

Re: What have you just bought?
A one year old "rescue" hamster, Walter, for my daughter to replace the one that died earlier this week. New cages on order and we hope to get a baby hamster shortly.
The idea is that they don't both die at the same time so cause less trauma. Replace one at a time.
