What have you bought recently?

Today I bought... a birthday cake for my daughter whose birthday is at the weekend. then I bought some fancy cake toppers for it as well.. and some smokeless Candles..

She is 50 this birthday...I can hardly believe it..if I hadn't been there when it happened I'd swear there's no way that ....1..she could possibly be 50 because she looks much younger.. and 2... ditto me... how can I be the mother of a 50 year old ?... c'mon.... :eek::ROFLMAO:🥰
 
Today, I went to buy a birthday gift for one of my loveliest friends, As I was browsing, I spotted a really nice pair of blue summer trousers and then, to my surprise, I spotted another equally nice pair of checked summer trousers. Honestly, I couldn't decide which pair to buy so, in the spirit of 'you can't take it with you' I bought both pairs.

I bet you think I bought them for my lovely friend ;) Nah! :ROFLMAO:

Although, I did buy her a nice present and I did buy a certain chap some nice t-shirts and I did buy some new garden tools for mum's garden 😇
 
I aslo bought some new hair clips... a whole bunch of OTC painkillers, because we're told there might be a shortage soon due to the Iran/US war...

I paid to have my nails done...

My oldest son turns 53 the end of May so I know how you feel HollyDolly. Last year before our election, I majorly stocked up on items thinking that with the tariffs that the prices were going to greatly increase or we might have a shortage and it actually didn’t work out that way. So my closets were filled to the brim for nothing so I’m not doing that this time. Of course in Europe things will be different than they are here.

It's incredible isn't it Terry.... when we ourselves were 50/3 just recently.. or so it seems..... just unbelievable how times flies

Sometimes to compare I think back to when my father was 50 and my granny was 70... and she was much older than me in her way.. and he was waaaay older at 50 than my daughter is now....

The way we're going by the time people die of old age they'll only look middle aged...:eek:
 
I bought a shallow basket at the dollar store to keep all my laundry items together on top of my vertical washer–dryer unit. Sometimes when the washer spin cycle vibrates some of the smaller items would fall off.

I also, several weeks ago, bought some temporary rose–gold spray-in highlights for my hair—I just grabbed it on a whim. I haven't had the nerve to try them yet, although if they look terrible it's not a big deal: I work at home, so it's not like I'd have to go in to an office looking like a freak. 😆
