No need for it what so ever. I've already got a watch.

At risk of invalidating the frivolity though, the sleep tracking and sonos control possibilities will be useful.
I've just gone for one of these too. Completely frivolous as my PO never leaves my wrist!
yes

Shiny + Kickstarter + not really needed = yes
What variety is that then or can they all control your Sonos?

I thought I was getting a pay rise so bought a new IPad Air as my iPad 2 is getting laggy. Didn't get the pay rise, hey ho!
I've upgraded...



Works out about £170ish which is dangerously close to the LG G Watch R, but hey ho!

I've got a perfectly good case for my iPad mini, but it wasn't a stainless steel case, and for a tenner this seemed worth a go, http://www.heinnie.com/crkt-inoxcase-for-ipad-mini

It's arrived, will try it tonight.

That is cool. Considering buying an ipad mini just so I've got a reason to buy the case...

My other half spend £100 on a piece of wood, since it's purchase, it's sat in the cupboard. Frivolous, no, it's damn right idiotic!

A similar one to this, from a different artist / seller, went for £96 + £9.99 so I think I didn't do too badly at £45 all-in for something unique. Of course, I won't know for sure until it arrives next week.

Edit: Sat in a cupboard, unused, is idiotic though. I agree.

I'm a sucker for KS though so mmmm.

I ordered some boxing gloves and pads last night. Just a spur of the moment thing, and will probably be thrown in the wardrobe at some point collecting dust along with the other 'gym' equipment. My OH has a multi-gym and rarely uses it, as in maybe once every 2 months. Annoys me because it's in our sons' bedroom and could do with the space. OH won't get rid of it and he goes to the gym anyway, makes me laugh biggrin

Already got a pressure gauge plus there is one on both of the foot pumps but this one lets you set the front and rear tyre presets into the memory and use the deflate button to lower it to the saved level.
So I can overinflate my tyres and use this to deflate to the correct pressure?

I would say this is essential, not frivolous!

At £1.98 (including postage) for 10, they're not exactly going to break the bank. But definitely frivolous.

I thought they might be useful for attaching USB memory sticks to things. Or for keeping their lids attached to them. Or, um.... stuff.
