Default What did you buy today?

Another forum has this same thread and it seems to be very useful. The idea is simple: share what you bought today. Could be anything. Find yourself wanting to share a purchase you've made but said purchase doesn't quite warrant it's own thread? Put it here! Grab a bargain and want to spread the love? Put it here! Make it the whole day only having bought a coffee? Props to you - put it here!

I'll start:

Snagged a mint condition Fishman Loudbox Mini today for $239 shipped. Made an offer on one on Reverb but couldn't come to an agreement, so checked eBay and found this beaut. Ironically, it's only shipping from a few towns over. Score.

Funny, I was just thinking about this. I bought NOTHING. Not one thing. Zip. Nada. Not a coffee or anything else.

I bought a coffee. Oh, and a tank of gas.

Ooo I’d love to see it. Drum sets are another instrument in which I admire the craft it takes to build them.

Funny you should ask, woke up to find I am the new owner of a mighty fancy pair of lightly worn Luchesse cowboy boots
in full quill black ostrich hide and red/black tooled leather !

On a whim, I put in a really low ball offer sometime late last night, expected a counter offer, got me the boots, no quibbling ....

prolly won’t fit me of course, which may be a blessing,,, where’s a city boy gonna sport them things anyway ?

Maybe I’ll have to take up line dancing ....

Today? I just bought a cup of coffee. I don't think today is going to be a guitar gear buying day.
