Your frivolous purchases, stuff you don't need...
Discussion
So I love reading the Ctrl+Alt+Del web comic and Tim, the chap behind it, has just released a Kickstarter for a Hardcover box set with pretty much everything from the 10 years he has been doing it. I'm not a big comic book reader, but have been hooked on this for years and figured it would be a nice thing to have. Bit frivolous as you can still read everything online for free

The 22000 mAh battery pack from a few pages back arrived today, my word, it's a weighty old thing!
Ha, wait til you charge it!http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/science-ne...
Now got my OH in on the case.
She has terrible posture and hopefully this along with stretching (piliates) will sort out her always being hunched over, she knows her current posture will screw her back up and tries not to do it, but her muscle memory has been set to hunch over after doing it for so many years.

I have already posted part of this before but my purchases were not complete so here goes:
2nd April - iPad 2 was getting a bit slow and fancied an Android tablet so bought a Lenovo Yoga 2 10.1.
3rd April – Ordered a Bluetooth gamepad from Amazon to link to the Lenovo.
5th April - After using an iPad mini, I realised that I preferred it to the Lenovo so got the iPad Mini 3.
11th April – 3 yr old wanted to watch Bob the Builder but can’t find it anywhere on Sky so bought Amazon Prime (the one that includes next day delivery).
12th April – Not happy with the performance of Amazon video on the Xbox One so buy a PS4.
22nd April – See that Apple TV is reduced so thought it might be useful.
22nd April – Amazon video has to be AirPlayed so sign up for Netflix as the app is available already installed.
27th April – Decided to cancel Amazon Prime as Netflix has everything I need (full refund minus 1 month of £6.99).
29th April – As Amazon might be putting up the price of free delivery to orders over £20, realise that Prime might actually be a good idea so buy it again.
29th April – Amazon Fire TV stick has Amazon Video and Netflix available so thought that would be great as I could use both. TV stick bought.
30th April – Return bluetooth gamepad as it hasn’t been used.
01st May – Amazon Fire TV stick is fine but Fire TV box is more powerful and I can link up my old Xbox 360 controller to play games on it – ordered.
So, I now have the iPad2 on eBay, a Lenovo tablet that isn’t really required which is also on eBay, an Apple TV box in the bedroom which I will eventually use once I have finished watching the Not Going Out box set, an Xbox One gathering dust and now too much TV available so I cant decide what to watch.
But, I can at least order more tat from Amazon and only wait 24 hours to have it delivered!!
I just need to return the Fire TV stick once the box arrives, although, maybe I could use it on the bedroom TV? That only has 1 HDMI port though so probably could do with a new TV.
I have a very understanding wife luckily.

I have now bought a Sony Z3 LTE compact tablet which is lovely. I can use it for PS4 remote play however, it ideally requires a 5ghz router and my sky fibre hub is only 2.4ghz. Last night I ordered BT infinity, phone, TV (for bedroom) and a £5 a month sim for the tablet for £2 less a month than I pay to Sky. BT supply a 5ghz hub so looking forward to that.
To sweeten the deal though, BT give you a £125 prepaid Visa card after 3 months and I have £146 cash back tracked so effectively half price for 12 months.
The boot and door openings of my E90 saloon are preventing me from buying this trio which I have no need for, £200 for all three

Any creative ideas? Boot definitely a no, rear door might do if I remove the opening limiter but I doubt I could do it alone.
