What have you bought recently?

We bought a new washer and dryer a few days ago, and it was delivered/installed yesterday. It's a nice GE brand, and Home Depot had the pair on sale for over $400 below the normal price. Our old set lasted 16 years, so I'm hoping we get similar results from this pair.
 

I bought 3 books on Amazon to add to my reading list.They are:
"American Gospel,God the Founding Fathers and the Making of a Nation-historian Jon Meacham
"The Orphan's Tale'-Pam Jenoff,she writes historical fiction,read her other book'"The Lost Girls of Paris',enjoyed it
"The Summer Wives"-Beatriz Williams,a new author for me

I just ordered a replacement immersion blender w/ a small grinder and a whisk attachments plus beaker from Amazon.

My old one shorted out a few months ago, sparked and we had to pull the circuit breaker. It was one of the first ones, a Braun, I purchased from TV more than 20 years ago. It cost $60.00 back then! I believe the one I bought is comparable at 24.95.

You know RadishRose...you make a good point here. Contrary to belief, not everything you have to replace costs more these days. Would that everything we needed to buy was this much less expensive and lasted just as long, huh!
 

I bought some fence panel grips, to stop the panels rattling in the wind. We'd tried wooden wedges, but they kept falling out after a big wind, so got these, and they're brilliant..

A Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 and a case for it with a shoulder carry strap. Got it on Prime Day from a competitor matching Amazon's prices. I've long used a smart phone and laptop, but so far I'm really liking the size of the tablet.

Yesterday I bought a 1970s Waterford crystal lamp similar to this one at the local Salvation Army thrift shop.

I've given it a good scrub to make it sparkle now I need to go shade shopping.
