I'm planning to buy a bottle of Coke and maybe a Kit Kat bar.

 

Edit: Wait, Friday was yesterday. I bought a tube of toothpaste.

muppet: What's Black Friday?

 

Its that day where the media told everyone to not go out cause it'll be mayhem so everyone stayed home therefore leaving St Lukes mall & the warehouse across the road really quite dead. And the roads running well. 

 

Did I buy anything in the "sales"..  Nothing that isnt discounted normally. Picked up Affinity suite for 50% off which is good.

Spoilt blimmin cat!


Indeed. Mind you it’s also a convenience for us owners and with the scheduled feeds and portions we have got tight control on his nutrition. What interests me is if he decides that us humans are no longer a source of food will he decide that the robot is his new best friend not us?

2 Lodge carbon steel frying pans from Amazon.au, 8" and 12", at good prices. Want to try them out, in the hope that the SO will be able to lift them (has trouble with the largest cast-iron pans), and in the hope we won't die of teflon poisoning...

Where was the Smart Tag 2 down to $14?
