Has anyone been online shopping out of sheer boredom yet?

So far I have purchased x2 geometry sets at 79p each and an Oxford maths set in a tin that was half price at £2.

My son will be 4 in a couple of months or so but they can go in the drawer until he starts secondary school. Very Happy

I've had some rechargeable batteries delivered along with some kids clothes and a case of Doom Bar.

I've got my eye on a new BBQ if it comes down to the right price and a new laptop.

Has anyone else bought anything online?

I've bought three watches, a large bag of wild bird seed, and a kettle that looks like a teapot.

I was going to buy another 24 can pack of Sharps Doom Bar (500ml cans) off Amazon until I saw the price increase.

It was £24 delivered which was great value considering the bottle version is around £1.80 but it has now gone up to £30 the cheeky gits.

My anti virus runs out in a month and it'll be £99.99 to renew, which is a hefty chunk, although it includes an unlimited VPN. (F-Secure).
Might look for something a little cheaper, although F-Secure has been very good.

Just received two rubber blades for the Karcher window cleaner. I wore the other one out doing the windows just about every week for the last 6 weeks.
My wife is due to retire in a year. If its anything like this lockdown, I'm going to try and get her to carry on Very Happy

I bought these 2. Bought the Porsche first and took me a few days to build so bought the Stormtrooper and built it in less than a hour.

A bit steep that to be honest Bonce. Shocked

I love the Porsche but they both look fun to build.

I think this must be why I have started to get my son on Lego a bit early so I can play with it all.

I find it rather therapeutic putting bricks together. Very Happy

You could be in luck with a discount code for a new one Norpig.

There is a thread on Hotukdeals with tons of offers for frontline staff that may be of some use to you here

As Tesco say, every little helps! Very Happy
