This is a question Impulse buys

I'm now the owner of a monster trampoline that's nearly too big for the garden. Tell us your retail disasters and triumphs.

Ace, I love impulse buying.
I just moved into a new, bigger apartment in December, and decided that as my old place was a studio, and was therefore using a sofabed, that I needed to go buy all new bedroom furniture.
Checked a few places on line, and went to the local Living Spaces. Picked out a gorgeous bed, bedside cabinet, huge dresser and a mirror, all for the princely sum of $600.

And then promptly decided I needed a new living room.......so couch, loveseat, coffee table, 2 side tables.........

But wait....I also have a dining area......one dining table and 4 chairs later. Got it all, delivered, for just under $3,000. And I fucking love it!

I then decided I needed a new DVD player as my old one was starting to go a bit bonkers. So off I pop down to the local electronic goods store...picked out the DVD player. But......there was a really really nice 37" HD LCD TV on sale for $599. And they only had the floor model left, so after asking sweetly for a discount, I got it for $347! Result!
So I also bought a PS2, an iPod and a surround sound stereo system.

But, my apartment looks lovely!
