Yumee Mar 2020 7:54pm, 22 Mar 2020 3,661 posts	0 Yumee I bought some toothpaste today because I thought we needed some. Turns out I must have thought that for a few weeks in a row and have accidentally hoarded about ten tubes. Did that once with chickpeas too - when we moved house discovered gazillions of the buggers. F*k knows what I think about when shopping 🙄
Carpathius Mar 2020 9:24pm, 22 Mar 2020 19,074 posts	0 Carpathius Ginger and garlic. But by mistake; I mentioned I'd need some before I pickled another pan of veg. I got some in the global fruit & veg shop in town (no eggs, no flour, no yeast, almost out of jackfruit). When I got home, Mr Carp had bought some too because he thought I wanted him to. Also he asked T2, who works in a shop, to get some more loo roll even though we weren't yet desperately low.
1step2far Mar 2020 11:49am, 23 Mar 2020 4,725 posts	0 1step2far A new mountain bike. My normal commuting bike is on it's last legs- wont change gear flat tyre. Bike shop refused to let me spend any more on it (They did say at last service it wasn't worth it). I need something to get to work and with everyone at home there's no parking within half a mile of my house... my car is staying where it is!! That's my justification any way!

Raemond Mar 2020 1:40pm, 23 Mar 2020 4,576 posts	0 Raemond clothes. I really don't need any more, but it's good to support small business that are having to close by buying from them online, right?
Yorkshire Pie Mar 2020 1:51pm, 23 Mar 2020 13,626 posts	0 Yorkshire Pie Clothes for me too. I've lost about 2 stone since October. I'd bought some more work clothes but hadn't got round to buying new casual stuff. Working from home for a week made me realise that I needed some trousers that actually stay up! Ordered online and they've just arrived. (mainly leggings, because there will be lots of lounging around on the sofa in my near future )
