I just bought something as well Gonz.
To fill the gaping hole of loneliness and self loathing in my life I've spent two hundred and seventy quid on a jacket. At least it was 40% off, eh?

I tried it on in Liberty in the summer and it's amazing, goose down inner and all that jazz. Proper warm. I only EVER buy clothes online when I'm in a bad mood. I have tons of stuff bookmarked and then if I'm angry/depressed/down I buy something. Probably explains why I have so many clothes.
(I fully appreciate it looks nothing special and it doesn't, wouldn't even glance twice at it if I hadn't tried it on).

I've never met you Barry.
But I'm pretty sure you're the only person who could get away with a jacket like that.

The girls I knock about with at uni say my style goes from amazing to the amazingly offensive.
I do try and wind people up with what I wear most of the time.

I like that lots, did you go for green or black?
I can totally dig the whole bad-mood = spend-money thing, but is there anything that isn't so funds-absorbing you can go for? Like DVDs, or anything else that'll get you frothing? Not making any judgements on your cash here, I don't have a clue about them, it's just that it seems a lot. Maybe you can get the same releaf by finding a bargin of clothing instead?
I do the same thing on Play.com, but I also force myself to wait 'till the next morning, and if I still want it, depending on what it is, I'll get it or wait 'till payday. And when I was your age, I was a hell of a lot worst at doing that than I am now.
It's the whole consumerism world we live in these days, I could easily spend a grand on nice new clothes if I had a grand to spend. I saw some lovely stuff in Marks'n'Sparks today, and there are a few Closing Down sales in the town, but I stopped myself on account of already being satiside by the homewares.

Went for the green.
I don't normally spend that much, this is by far my most outlandish angry purchase. By about a hundred and twenty quid. I don't regret it most of the time, by the time it turns up I'm well happy with it. I'd never buy nice stuff like this otherwise, when I'm of sound mind I'm reasonably frugal.
But I'm very fucked off today so thought what the hell. Although it doesn't always work out well, I still wonder what was going through my head when I spent sixty quid on a summer scarf. Still not worn it.
