Spec me something fun and useful for £25

Mr. Brightside · 18 Dec 2011 at 11:21

I won a £25 voucher for a large online retailer (I'm not up to speed on what is considered to be a competitor on the forums these days, so I'm erring on the side of caution) in a raffle at a Christmas do recently. Only problem is I can't decide what to spend it on. The amusing thing about that of course is that it makes me realise how lucky I am - or just how minimalist I am - there are plenty of things I don't have (e.g. I don't have a TV), and mostly the reason is that I just have no desire for them. The only things I need right now are clothes but I won't buy any 'till after Christmas because clothes are on my wishlists and if I'm lucky someone else might buy some for me.

There are plenty of things I *could* buy with it that are £25 or less (I don't want to top-up the value with actual money - though an extra £5/10 for something really worth having I could justify).

So - ideas for something fun/cool *and* useful?

Cheers

Books?

Buy yourself some books, you could put it towards an expensive cook book and then it gives you the chance to learn to cook a few things too.

You could always put it towards something more practical? Maybe buy yourself some food you've not tired before (if it's on Amazon for example)

OK, A female massager? is that clean enough?

I'd spend it on books or films.

That is fine, but if you carry on the way you are, you may not last here very long.
