Someone slap me. What's the most expensive thing you've bought on a whim?

'Cos it puts out the equivalent of 60W of halogen light and runs for 4 hours?

I've been borrowing lights from the uni's cycling club for night rides, but they can have them back now. :)

TBH, I needed a set anyway for Sleepless in the Saddle this summer.

I think the Creatives are quite good now. Mind you, I'm tempted by one of the cube things.

No, I've never seen that, I've never seen anyone drive their garbage out to the curb and bang the hell out of it with a stick. No, I've never seen that.
