Apart from cycling related things

[Greedo]

what's your retail weakness?


The things I buy too much of are



bottles of wine (quite bad)
Shoes/trainers (under control)
CD's
Books (this is my worst one. hardly ever leave Borders in Glasgow without a book, which is about a 3 min walk from my office and I drift in a couple of times a week at least)

 

[Kirstie]

Cheap rail tickets so I can go touring...at odd times of year...
For a female I suppose I'm pretty restrained and tend not to spend much on material things.

 

[Greedo]

Ah but cheap rail tickets to go touring will involve your bike no doubt and is therefore a cycle related purchase

Yes, but that's about as far as it goes...!

 

[parklaneyido]

Mine has to be:

Tottenham Hotspur match tickets
CD's
T-shirt's
Rubicon Mango

I always have to urge to buy something when I go into my LBS, but I manage to resist a lot of the time because of the price of the things I look at!

 

[Mr Phoebus]

Trainers. Retro-type ones, as well. None of those fugly modern ones.
I've got about thirty-pairs of them.
Why? God knows. I suppose I could wear each pair for one day each month.

 

[TheDoctor]

Wine.
I once had to buy an extra suitcase to pack all the wine I'd bought on holiday.

 

[Hilldodger]

History books to do with either thr First World War or the social, economic and industrial development of England during Victorian times. I probably need to live until I'm 250 to read all the ones I have and will buy in the future

 

[Greedo]

That's the chaps I'm on about. Addidas Gazelles in every bloody colour!

My daughter, when she was about 7, observed solemnly that "" daddy only bought wine, and tobacco, and books". Thinking back, what else was there worth spending money on?

 

[alecstilleyedye]

wine, retro macintoshes.

the wife is keen on one, but oddly not the other…

>what's your retail weakness?

If its not money

Its bike bits or tech' items

 

[beancounter]

Motorbikes.

Oh dear oh dear oh dear.

[pinkkaz]

cake, chocolate, sweets and cappucinos!

I'd be able to buy so much more cycling stuff if I went on a diet! But I'm so weak!
