More frivolous purchases, stuff you don't need..

I’ve already got almost a 1000watts of Led illumination on our off Road Defender.

So decided to buy these as they were on the pre Black Friday sale.

You have to wire that up to your toilet door lock

I could do with a new one of those too!

Damn it, they’ve only gone and sent me a bunch of Black Friday offers now!

300 capsules of L'Or Nespresso-compatible coffee pods.

To fully qualify for this thread, I should add "and I don't drink coffee" but that would be a complete lie as I drink rather a lot of coffee.

I've also just bought a GTX 1080Ti graphics card, even though my current GTX 980 is performing perfectly well.

Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser ... a machine purely for making hot chocolate (and the sachets for it are £1.20 a pop, sold in boxes of 10)

But crikey it’s immense - the salted caramel hot choc is sublime as is the 70% nicuraguan!

I was looking at one of them the other day, £100 for a fancy hot choc maker is rather a lot though... You can buy the jars of choc rather than the sachets and also just grate down their own choc bars


Still undecided

Remember folks, "it’s only cheap if you were going to buy it anyway".

The jars are even more frivolous at £9 each due to the amount you need to use (6 heaped spoons per drink) ... the machine is £90 or £100 for the starter kit with 20 sachets, 2 mugs and a reusable fabric bag

Go for it, it’s ace (and super frivolous!)

Is this to one up my 1060 as I beat your Xeon clockspeed?

Well, I seem to have over-reached myself this time. No idea what I'm going to do with this, or where I'm going to put it....



At least it matches the equally frivolous and useless NYC cab I bought in the summer.

I'm looking for some kind of story behind Digby's traffic light, and the school bus.

And a link for the E46 head unit. Because reasons.

Strong contender for thread win...

Camper conversion, steering wheel correct for continental frivolities.

Hats off to you sir! That is an epic purchase. Well done!

This is your desperate attempt to claim that an extra few MHz of clock speed somehow beats the 24 threads mine has vs your 16, and the far greater amount of RAM mine has, yes?

[robinessex]

Should I buy one of these for the confuser



Only $15,000. Will need a motherboard as well I suppose !!
