Impulse Purchases

A thread for things you just HAVE to have... that aren't dvds.

I bought a 20 year old tv magazine off ebay the other day. I was the only bidder, at 99 pence! :lol:

So that's 99pence plus four pounds for postage? And the same programs are still showing, aren't they? :P

LOL It's just a nostalgia thing. There's a big Who article in it, and I actually remember a friend bringing the issue into school to show me it.

Nostalgia kick, what can I say? :roll: :wink:

My goodness, :shock: I read the first line and I thought snapsie's going to start turning tricks. (You'll note I was kind and left out the word "again") :P

Sounds like it's whip round time to me. *:)* :twisted: *:)*

I'll avoid making comments in poor taste like ''do you like your nuts crushed and your cream whipped ?'' :r as I have to consider the effects on your health. You can't indulge in too much excitement at your age! :P

It's not a dvd.
But then it's not really an impulse buy either.
I have actually thought about it for a while.

New car.
Tomorrow. :shock: :T *:)* 8)

New car, today.
8 kms on the clock when we picked it up.
White.
Toyota.

My knowledge of cars is now exhausted.
As am I, after a drive up to Gumeracha and back.
At least the air conditioner works, it was pretty warm out there today.

:D 8) *:)* :W
