The Queen arrived today and sort of completes the Alien/Predator line of that series.

I wish HeroCross would do more figures of characters I love... then again, its financially for the best.

This is god damned amazing.

Mine isn't so much a purchase, but as my birthday was a couple days ago, my dad gave me one helluva gift to add to my collection...

Next time I see some Nina Turtle figures I’ll snap a picture for you.

I have bought a jack to jack cable (snore) and some early Christmas presents because Amazon keep sliding the price up and down almost hourly and this is the cheapest I've seen these items go for so I'm getting in before.

Have also bought dinner at a restaurant (a really nice and normal experience after the madness of lockdown), a book recommended by my dad and a brilliant bluetooth speaker by Tribit which hands down beats anything I've ever used before.

Well, I just got an e-mail notification telling me my Transformers: the Movie 30th anniversary steelbook order got cancelled because the one copy they had left from that seller is no longer in stock (why they voided mine when I had it ordered 10 days previously, I have no clue) and the next cheapest copy is a ridiculous $45. Luckily I ordered the standard Blu-Ray and the first 2 seasons of Transformers: Prime on Shout Factory for a screaming deal of $115 combined.

I also ordered the Star Trek: Stardate Collection, King Kong: Ultimate Edition (never saw the extended cut, have the theatrical on DVD) and Parasite off Amazon.

I recently bought 2 2DS XLs from GameStop online. Never again. My total was $300 and they charged me twice. I contacted customer support and they said they do it to verify your billing method and they won't refund me for at least a week. Nowhere do they warn you of this practice during the order process or payment process. So I'm out $600 now. I learned my lesson. My husband and I are both now boycotting GameStop.

That's not a common practice, it was a mistake and now they're lying about it.

A book about discipleship, some soda crystals, deodorant, razors and the weekly big shop because at last Tesco has delivery slots after 5 months of nothing (I'm looking at you, Covid).

Yea, that's what I thought. Unfortunately I haven't been able to get a hold of my bank yet to cancel the charge so I will probably end up disputing it after it's done pending. I think what bugs me the most is I've talked to 3 different people and GameStop's website and everyone refuses to refund me.

Bought a few little plants to brighten up my bedroom/office.

I also rescued a fuchsia. I say rescued because it was a bit of a reject - it was reduced to £3 and looked a little bedraggled, and was the only one of it's type left because nobody want to buy it. But with a little TLC it's already looking healthier and with a little time I reckon it'll be great.

I'm a bit of a crazy plant lady.
