Last Thing You Bought?

I ordered my new laptop: 13-inch Macbook Pro. :D It was the older (and somewhat cheaper) edition, though, as I wasn't keen on paying for the new "touch bar" that replaces the function keys. Plus, the newer ones don't have as many ports for peripherals. I spec'ed it up some by adding more RAM and a bigger drive for storage. It will be available Jan. 10 for pickup. I'm very excited. :) My current laptop is near death, lol.
Ooo, exciting purchase!

Just bought a new epilator as mine broke ages ago & I'm fed up with not having one. Plus a storage box for pjs/nightwear & the first two Miss Peregrine books. Excited to read those :)

Indeed! I haven't bought a new computer since '08. This machine will be so much faster and lighter. :)

Bought lots of non vegan food for my granny, such as different sausages, cheeses, red caviar, milk chocolate, and of course, some veggies and fruits. She was happy, and so was i. Her injured back still hurts, but it's a little bit better:rolleyes:
 
Went to CVS & got my Physician's Formula mineral powder, then headed down the back street to check Discount Health Foods to see if they got the balsam fir oil in yet... no dice. So I perused some organic polenta (all had cheese with "enzymes"), ended up buying the first Parmesan in over a year (Organic Valley, vegetarian enzymes).... then headed to Kmart to exchange my 2-pack of too-tight bras, ended up getting a 3-pack o' bras, a fragrance, and three movies. :)

It wasn't intentional, but apparently I now have a Woody Harrelson/Jesse Eisenberg-fest or something... seriously, it's just what was there, what was cheap, & what I thought was cool. I ended up with:

Rampart ($2.99)... never seen it, seen previews, looks good, WTF. Rampart (2011) - IMDb
Now You See Me ($5)... seen a couple times, love "magic" & heist flicks. Now You See Me (2013) - IMDb
Zombieland ($5)... Need I say more? :cool: Zombieland

It is the Holland & Barrett penny sale at the moment. I bought a few food items as well as herbal tea and some sweet almond oil, a few bottles of essential oil and some Argan oil. Lots of oil!:D

I also bought some other things online, a new table lamp, two new pillows, a large box of incense sticks and some more dog toys.:doggy:It was very cheap as it all came to less than £75!

A boatload at Target today, including two boxes of diapers, baby wipes, a mega pack of TP, rice, tons of beans, dried cherries and more. My daughter clung to "her" pack of PB crackers the whole time. Thankfully, she willingly put it on the belt when the time came to pay. With a two year old, you just never know when they are going to choose to suddenly turn crazy irrational, but happily today was not that day!

Not exactly bought but booked accommodation in Brighton (town centre and near the sea front) for April.:up:

I will definitely try one of the vegan restaurants during my stay and also perhaps have some afternoon tea.

Go the terre a terre for afternoon tea! A little on the expensive side, but completely worth it as a special treat. Their vegan afternoon tea was to die for!



My latest purchase was a new mattress! Desperately needed.
