Well, not the last thing I bought, but something purchased about a month ago but just started using today.
I'm happy that I splurged and got this cool humidifier as my skin was crawling previously itching with the dryness of the air.
In a a few hours, the humidity level is up from about 25% to 34%.

I'll be interested to see if anyone here purchases the Amazon Echo when it comes out - and to see what they think of it. However, I suspect that many of the rational and pragmatic minds who frequent these parts are maybe not the types who will want it.

A vintage grease filter for our 1967 GE Hood Fan. They still manufacture them in the US. Couldn't find a cheap one here so it is shipping from Los Angeles to our home in Canada. In January we will take it to our villa, about 2 hours from Los Angeles

I ordered a USB car charger and cable for the iPhone. Actually two, one for each of us. They were inexpensive, yet delivered on Sunday.

I ordered a Paperwhite and case as a Christmas present for a friend, and the complete Twin Peaks set for myself.

I also ordered Calypso, by Harry Belafonte. That's for me.

Throwing LBYM to the winds, I ordered this rain jacket in blue. It was on sale, and I used $28 worth of rewards from my Amazon Visa, which helped. Hopefully it will be an appropriate rain jacket for our torrential (and hot) summer rains here in South Louisiana.

Even though we have a whole-house humidifier it doesn't do that great of a job so after reading your post and several other reviews I ordered one too. It should arrive Tuesday.

Mine is scheduled for this Wednesday. Will be a cool thing to demonstrate at Thanksgiving day at home. Depending on who (at the viewing here) likes it, the stick may become an XMAS gift.

I ordered two clear, reinforced, poly tarps to use for a hot-house/cold-frame for my gardening project in the Spring. I was pondering the project the other day, and decided to just order them now so I don't forget to do it until just before I need them.

The Powered Paramotor Bible.
For DH, who has decided that paramotoring is the latest way he should attempt to shorten his lifespan.
