What have you bought recently?

I bought a little mesh popup laundry basket at Walmart. I've really missed having a laundry basket but there is no room in my car to have one, so I was thrilled to find that such a thing exists, I'll be able to fold it up and slide it under the seat in the car.
 

I ordered a set of stacking (2) footstools from Amazon.
Sent my new glasses back to have auto darkening coating put on them. Also bought more eye drops and a moisture mask. The clinic didn’t carry the mask previously, so I bought it while there. Happened to see my past Amazon history so looked at the previous mask purchase. Sure enough it was $10 less then before.
 
Today I took delivery of a new wax coat.. got it in the sale , at a vastly reduced price. Most of you may not know what that is, but here in the UK specifically in the countryside wax coats & Jackets are very popular with the upper class as well as the country set.. ..they're very waterproof for being out in the fields etc.. and also at sea..


Also got a new silk kimono robe...

Then in town I bought a beautiful magenta small glass bowl... a new cushion for my office chair.. some silver ware for my dressing table.. including a small single bud vase.. a glass candle holder with a silver base, with a fancy pink church candle to put in it.. a mirrored silver tray.. and a great big Black wall clock..

At first I saw the kimonos and thought they were an unusual design for a wax coat. 😄

Love that new clock.

I just returned a housecoat/kimono that I bought a couple of weeks ago. Will get by for another year until I find what I really want.

Bought some lottery tickets to put in a friend’s birthday card. I can’t think of a thing he wants.

You really love shopping……have you ever thought of being a professional shopper……you could shop….shop…..and shop, without having to pay for anything, and customers would be happy getting their shopping done without having to shop.

I haven't had a Kimono, since my first husband brought me one back from overseas when he was in the Navy which was way back in the late 70's early 80's... ..Really since then I've only had thick bath robes.. so I thought it was about time I got myself a nice light summer one..because it's too hot to wear the velvet plush red one I have ...:D

Do you buy your glasses thru Zinni?
My wife just bought her new prescription sunglasses thru them.

The sunglasses would fit the category of being bought recently.

I think everyone who can't do their own shopping in person does their shopping online now ...

I miss the days when it was obvious that batteries were about to die so you had a few days to replace them.

Now they work perfectly one minute and dead as a doornail the next. No notice whatsoever. It's surprising that car manufacturers haven't come up with a dashboard monitor light that gives some warning.

I do too Star Song. Living alone in the boonies I got one of those jump starter things. It has come in handy a couple of times when I have gone out to start the car and it was dead.

lol... in the Uk it's much easier for people to shop than many places in the USA... we almost all live within short distances from the stores.. they're all on the high street ..a swell as retail parks.. .. Honestly I'm nothing compared with most women here.. I only shop every couple of weeks or so ... I know people who go every day..
