Self Isolation Crap Bought
Discussion
What crap have you bought due to either self isolation or increased time doing nothing?
Today, I just spent $100 on some mats that will likely never be used...if they ever turn up.
Yesterday I bought a set of garage cabinets for $99 and a patio table and chairs set for $149. Clearly it’ll be terrible quality (if it ever arrives) and will collapse the first time I even look at it.
I’m also been eyeing up one of these for a while...
Although I don’t think you can order online.

End of last week I bought 3 pictures which are now hanging on walls around the house, and today I ordered a turntable after bringing all my old vinyl down onto the shelves in the lounge. So (as long as deliveries aren't impacted) I shall be spending much of next week listening to music.
Oh and a new helmet and goggles for skiing, they're going to come in handy soon
Been thinking about new bedroom furniture so will probably look into that next week. Bloody expensive trying to fill your time! Tbf they're all things I've been meaning to get round to for a while (apart from the skiing stuff, that was just a whim).
ETA didn't really read the opening post properly, none of it is crap

Nothing, but then I've been living alone for many years now so "self isolation" is just everyday life so I'm not really sure what everyone is fussing about.
Anyway, I'm doing a rear brake overhaul and rear chassis tidy up/underseal of the RRS and have had to order online a couple of boxes of latex gloves as the local panic buyers have bought out all the supplies locally. I guess they must be playing doctors and nurses at home as I don't think they're all oily garage enthusiasts.

I'm turning a small conservatory into some small office space as i'm getting fed up having to use the front room as it's so impractical. So far I've ordered:
- Small computer desk
- New 1080p monitor (saves me moving the one in the front room around)
- New computer chair (saves me moving the one in the front room around)
- Bluetooth speaker
- 2 LED light strips
- Door stickers
I really should stop buying stuff this month.

I've just recently bought a super powerful PC and loads of audio gear and software, I've basically built a really good home studio at exactly the right time by pure luck. It can also play all the new games at ultra level.
To be honest I'd much prefer to be working but if I'm stuck indoors with no choice I'll enjoy getting into that.

It was a good offer ... but the tree in my garden could be felled with a small penknife.
will look at woods4sale next
Will come in handy when the lawless, marauding gangs turn up though. It was a good offer ... but the tree in my garden could be felled with a small penknife.

I've got stacks of chainsaws, reciprocating saws, hedge trimmers and the like in lock-ups at work.
Might bring a load home, fuel and charge them and leave them stratigically placed around the house.
Come and steal my flat-screen telly you zombie b
