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.

Virgin airlines...
I just bought an aeroplane (a Cessna 172), using a credit card with a ridiculously high credit limit. I must be out of my fucking mind!

I am qualified to fly it, but I can't afford to, thanks to the outrageous interest rate and bankrupting minimum payment. So, it just stands there... looking wretched.

I might try using it as a greenhouse and grow some tomatoes to recoup some funds.

thats like
£70K at least surely?

Learn to fly, dont worry about the landing shit. Then fly it in to canary wharf or something. That would be kewl.

But a Cessna wouldn't do much damage
It would result in a broken window with the arse end of a plane sticking out of it.

Pity the 9/11 guys hadn't thought like that.

I've never heard of anyone having £70k limit on their credit card, just as well really, I'd only have gone and bought a jet fighter or something.

Why don't you charge people to go for rides in it?

I would pay at least £10 for a plane ride.
