What did you buy?

I bought an HTC Wildfire S Black edition on T-Mobile contract yesterday



100 minutes, 100 texts and unlimited internet for £20.42 a month.

I get 12 months out of 18 free though, so it averages at £6.66.

Heheheheeeee..........

Sorry but I think those "smartphones" are kinda redundant... I mean if you want to have a phone get a phone, if you want a laptop get a laptop there's no need to have everything in a tiny device.

Sennheiser HD 598 Headphones.

Incredible sound comes from them, not to mention they look really nice as well with their glossy burl wood finish and leather padding.

@slime. Nice guitar you got there. How much did it cost you? Seeing that reminds me of my brother. The one he bought looked similar to that. He went quite the opposite though. Bought a $700 guitar + an expensive amp. He tried learning to play it once (by learn to play it, I mean actually picking up the guitar). Been about a year and a half since. Neither good with money or persistence..

@Marky. Nice phone. Everyone keeps telling me, I should go on one of those pans that gets you a nice phone because you only have to pay $X a month. I'm happy with my $60 dollar phone and pre-paid. I just know I'd never end up getting my moneys worth as I don't make many calls from my phone and I only text when I need to. Also the last few higher quality phones I've gotten have all broken on me and not from dropping them or anything, they just screwed up. Fragile things they are. Whereas with my current cheapy phone, I've dropped it onto concrete maybe 10 times and it still never fails me.

This is the other reason I never got a smart phone. Got nothing against using smart phones. I use my laptop when it comes to internet. But while it may seem redundant in some respects, in another way I can see the convenience. If your on a train/bus trip trip or even just walking around, its much easier to have a smart phone with internet than to take around a laptop (especially if you were walking around and needed to get directions e.g google maps.)

But overall I wouldn't use it nearly as much as my laptop for internet, preventing me from justifying buying a smart phone. Plus I hate using the tiny keyboard either on screen or on the pad. The buttons are too tiny for my fat fingers.

Really cheap. 330 euros for both guitar, amp, belt and case. Normal price was something like 390 (without the discount).
The amp is pretty decent actually.The guitar isn't very bad.

That's about the same price I've bought my guitar, case and amp, 300 euros. Money well spent.

I bought some peanuts. I haven't bought them in quite a while, because last time They ended up just sitting in the cupboard and never got eaten. But I am determined to snack on them this time.

Bought a couple of albums by The Kills and a couple of history books on renaissance Italy, cos i'm cool

A pink highlighter and a couple of pens. Because green and yellow highlighters aren't manly enough.

The humbleindiebundle for $10. Got 5 new games.

I give you praise for not being one of those people who rips off the humble bundle by only paying 1 cent. Apparently alot of people have been doing that.

I bought a 4 subject notebook and some big red chewing gum (cinnamon flavoured goodness)

Yeah, I would feel terrible doing that. I want to feel like a decent human being.

Haha, good on you SJ for paying a decent amount. I was gonna buy it but realised I lack the funds in my account at the moment to give anything worthwhile Considering its for charity, I don't want to rip em off.

I just bought a wrap from the sandwhich shop.

This would be fine, except I asked the guys lad in there for it and stupidly asked for a ceasar wrap. The guy who owns it knows what I have in this 'ceasar wrap' but I forgot his son doesn't so I now have an excess of tomato and cucumber, neither of which I like. My fault completley. Oh well.

So I is a little confused. Did you accidentally order the wring thing or pick up someone else's order?

reminds me of a time I order a chicken strip burger, got home, looked in the bag and there was just a single chicken strip in it. Apparently I forgot to say burger at the end of my sentence

I just recieved the book I ordered for pathology. Cost me $100 and the best part, yesterday at my first pathology lecture, I found out, that the book we needed that was listed on the course guide was wrong, and infact it was a different book we needed .

No, the owner's son screwed up her order. The owner knows what the caesar wrap is but apparently the son does not.

That's it SJ. Yeah, my fault because I assumed. I was angry at myself because I really don't like tomato raw. And it all tasted of raw tomator juice too. Bleugh.

Aww, that is annoying Remi. I hate that when you buy somthing, being all prepared and then someone else screws it up because they weren't prepared. On the bright side, at least you can cross compare and you now have some, er... light... reading for when you are bored?

I just bought a sexy Pepsi can, 50p. It must be old, it has the old logo, old font and the pull top off thing. What I'm wondering is how on earth they got it.

EDIT: Oh yeah, the last thing other than a Pepsi can is GTA IV for the XBox at Cex, £15.00

Haha, since I paid 10 bucks for the Indy bundle I get 5 more games free! >:3 Take that you cheap people!

Three games for the price of two.

Wolfschanze II ;;; Grand Ages - Rome - Gold Edition ;;; Mythos

Edit: Excellent. Mythos seems to be free to play... What's the point of selling it in a store then? Going there now to complain.

Edit 2: Nice, got Starwars Battlefront 2 instead now.

A box of around 20 small chocolate doughnuts which I forgot the price of... thought it was probably £1.00 or something like that.

A Two-piece suit.

No photos til September I'm afraid.

Just went for a little shopping tour.

Got the movies: Pandorum and the five first original Planet of the Apes movies.

And three games for the price of two: Heroes V of Might and Magic Collectors Edition , Great Battles Medieval and The Settlers - Rise of an empire - Gold Edition.

The original Planet of the Apes were great - well, the first two were

A preowned copy of FIFA 09. Cost 98p (1.13€, $1.62). Absolute bargain.

I just bought the four first TPBs of the Chew comic books. It's totally awesome, but I feel guilty because I should be saving for buying a home next year...

Now I need someone to talk me out of purchasing Cities XL 2011. I miss playing Sim City these days...
