A 2011 VW GTI. My wallet hurts.
A 2011 VW GTI. My wallet hurts.
Nothing. Nothing that I needed was on offer.
Nothing, shopped about and didn't see 1 bargain really.
Nothing!
Old puter - still good enuff till I save some pennies!
Nothing at all. I was hoping to pick up a good 27" G sync monitor but they are so far out of reach it's just a joke. Black Friday prices were still higher than they were before the price rises.
A superior quarterpounder hamburger with bacon and cheese (sadly the latter artificial) topped with Bick's Hamburger Relish and Corn Relish, blue cheese mayo, and pickled gherkin slices, with a generous sprinkle of flaked chilis. With breaded mushrooms and a garlic mayo dip, washed down with Dr Pepper (sugary American drinks cut through the fattiness of their cuisine).
Surprisingly, last week my doctor declared my cholesterol levels 'normal'. Not sure if that is a good thing or whether I am headed for cardiac arrest.
Nothing at all

First time i have actually embraced it, used to just buy a couple of things from the USA when the exchange rate was favourable, but this year mostly xmas presents:
2 x Samsung tablets, smelly stuff at Body shop, clothes for the wife at HoF, gift sets at boots, set of Antler suitcases
Asus ROG 15" laptop with i7, 512Gb SSD, 4K screen and GTX 1070. Have been saving since last year.
Can't wait to put my hands on it.
The more you live, less you die. More you play, more you die. Isn't it great.
Hmm... I'm almost feeling ashamed for buying anything with the general consensus here being "nothing".
Oh well, I did buy a couple of BDs, mostly completing some series (GoT season 5 and 6, Banshee season 3 and 4, Penny Dreadful season 2, Vikings season 3). Also some movies (Star Trek: Beyond 3D, The Conjuring 2, Huntsman: Winter's War 3D, X-Men: Apocalypse 3D, Independence Day: 20th Anniversary Edition).
Also bought some electronics. A Logitech G502 Proteus Spectrum mouse and a HyperX Cloud headset on behalf of a friend. And a Steelseries Apex M800 mechanical keyboard and an AppleTV4 for me. Might return both, though. Was mostly a question of "buy and return if not happy" instead of "I wish I'd bought it when it was cheap".
Relatively "cheap" 27" GSync monitor:
