I've been given a £25 voucher from my brother in the form of a Visa card. I can spend it anywhere online that accepts Visa.

The question is, what to buy? I was thinking about a personal breathalyzer, but the cheap ones seem innaccurate. Then I thought something from iwantoneofthose.com, but nothing really floats my boat.

Come on PH. Spend my money for me biggrin

there are a few ideas on a very similar recent thread:

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

from that thread i quite like the look of those mini mp3 players. I am surprised you can get them that cheap.

are you going on any trips soon (holidays or camping or trackdays etc). is there anything that might make life easier on one of those trips?

Find someone who'll give you £20 for it, then spend the cash on 13 euromillions lottery tickets before tomorrow afternoon.

Or just keep it until you need to buy something rather than feeling that it is burning a hole in your pocket and spending £25 on something you don't need/want.

Get some decent wine rather than the £3.99 stuff from the bottom shelf?

Donate it to a charity. If you don't know what to spend it on, you won't miss it.

Buy a BMX on ebay and restore it. Then ride it or resell it.

For a tad more (£29.99) you could have a Motor Mouse for the PC.

Jesus. This is a vague request. You can buy anything from anywhere that accepts Visa? So that's most web shops. How about a guinea pig? Or a quickdraw? Or 5kg of walnuts nuts? Hub caps for a Mondeo? Anti-virus software? 24 pack of Stella? A stool? An assortment of spring bars? 3 keyboards? A Lorus digital watch?
