UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Just wanted to start a post about treating yourself once in a while, I went out today and bought a region free dvd player (as it was only £29.99 in Argos) then found out that my tele didn't support NTSC dvd's (well it did but played them in black and white) so I sorted that out by buying a 17" Goodmans LCD tele .

Anyone else treated themselves recently?

yep,yesterday i was boerd so bought a ps2 and a stack of games to keep me ammused over winter months (and sober...ish),werent til i got it home to realise it was little bigger than my hand and silver....bonus.

Has to be done though don't it.

I'm going through a quarter-life crisis currently, might treat myself to an old skool Scalectrix

Been looking on eBay but can't decide.

Recently bought a set of alloys,,,
Need to buy a few ps2 games as they're all coming out at once (keep myself out of trouble that way)
I seem to have an obsession with designer clothes?? Need to cut down on that stuff
Seem to treat myself a bit too often..... but if I dont...who will....lol

am trying to stop myself from buying a psp and gta... but i suppose the biggest treat is we complete on our first home together this friday it'll officially be ours, so thats a big treat

Yeah set of 4 spax adjustable dampers and a new numberplate for the track day tool B5 GSE for a 1985 Opel monza GSE!!!

Thats £800 spent in two days!!!!

Better go and earn some more!!!!

My most recent acquisition is a Dell 2005FPW monitor for my home PC, looks like:



And as you might have guessed by the model name and the image it's a 20" widescreen flat panel. I was well chuffed with it until.. one of my colleagues at work has gone and got a 32" flat panel widescreen Samsung TV which is HDTV capable and has Freeview built in! Git! Still chuffed with my panel, just now I want a new TV too

Bit stretched for cash now for 7 days then I get paid again

nice monitor, i hate having to use other peoples, am used to my 23" apple one

Awesome!!!!!

I bought myself a laptop from eBay, I thought that would be a nice little treat.. but the bastard has scammed me and I'm down £460 - two months wages behind the deli at waitrose I'm not going to lie down and let that one go I can tell you..
So to lift my mood I've just ordered the complete series 1-8 dvd's of red dwarf, that should keep me happy for a while

nothing much recently. been DIY-ing the new house so got to figure out how much cash I have left!

the most recent purchase was a couple of MAMOD steam engines off ebay. proper kid's toys - where you can get burnt like hell and there's no-one to sue

sad, i know!

don't get me started on treating myself......

i nearly bought a 20gb sony mp3 player from work (got a 20% voucher to use up) but didn't in the end!
would also like.......
(for the car) alloys, coilys, rear lights, new head unit
(for me) psp, new Vans, dvd recorder, new stereo

plus stacks of dvds and cds!!

i need to be locked up!!

Boy, I can't remember the last time I treated myself! Must be the iPod a bought a while back now...planning of purchasing my first home so will be treating myself a plenty once it goes through...LCD widescreen TV...and then sadly a fridge/freezer, washing machine, table, chairs, sofas, beds...boring!

Recently treated myself to an extremely overpriced but absurdly good-looking Sony LCD monitor (HS-75P/B). Will be paying for it for a few months though.

Now I'm deciding between a new iPod nano or a used but still great looking Toshiba portégé 2000 laptop (that ultra-thin laptop that didn't have room for a DVD drive...).

I'm leaning toward the Portégé, old(ish) technology but costing almost as much as the iPod (plus it's a lot more functional).
