Re: What have you just bought?
I needed a new GPS running watch as my Nike+ one wasn't up to what I need it for plus I wanted a heart rate monitor and the only one compatible would cost about £50 so I put it on eBay as funds are currently low so with the money I decided to go back to basics and won the auction for a used Garmin FR110 which is pretty much the entry-level for what I wanted but met all my needs. I could get the heart rate strap another time (ie when I had the money even though for the Garmin it's around half that of the Nike+).
A few days later it arrived......or so I thought. I used to have the FR110 so as I took it out of the box I could tell they'd sent the wrong one. I checked the paperwork for their phone number to complain.....until I realised what they'd sent was the mid-to-upper range model, the FR410 
I sent a message to say they'd sent a different (I was careful not to say 'wrong'  ) and begrudgingly asked if they wanted me to return it. Inevitably the guy said yes which I was planning to do this morning but 10 minutes later he sent another message saying not to bother and I could keep it 
More features such as Virtual Partner and Course Creator, better battery life and although the model is about 4 years old now it's as good as or better than the majority of running watches on the market right now - plus they also included the heart rate strap too, saving me £30 to £40. Happy with that!

The red shoes were a cheer me up as I have just donated the rest of my high heels to the local charity shop. So I am down to the low 30's.

Re: What have you just bought?
Can never have too many pairs of shoes or hand bags Jo. The good thing about shoes and handbags are they will always fit well that's my reason for buying

Re: What have you just bought?
Evening meal and drinks for me and my sister after a hard days deep cleaning at my mums in preparation for her return. Gotta make it look like nothings changed except the removal of the grime and crap.

Re: What have you just bought?
Last few items for the school starting back on the 17th pens, pencils, maths set etc. I think we now have everything in that he needs. Well I'm hoping that's the case.
