Is any one else just browsing through various fishing tackle websites and purchasing unnecessary tackle....
I done it last night whilst the missus was watching something or other on Netflix... Just realised I've spent 70 of the queens finest on items I didn't really want or need....
I have a bad habit on clicking on sale / clearance sections and adding bits to my basket....my particular Achilles heel is hooks, I've got more hooks than the local tackle shop...I always pick up a pack or two with every purchase whether that be on line in in person in an actual shop...

It might just be me but I find it pretty selfish buying non essential stuff at this present time.
The people who get this stuff to your door most likely are putting themselves at a high risk of infection. Most probably don't won't to be out there working let alone handling more then they need to, postal workers, delivery drivers, warehouse staff etc.
I personally think only essential items should be possessed until this **** storm is under control.
Just my thoughts.

With so many people desperate for money in the near future I'm sure there will be a glut of second hand vehicles up for sale. Along with everything else people think they can live without. Sad but true.

I get what you're saying, but who can determine what is essential and what isn't? The outfit that someone buys to go out, well they won't be going out but it may just boost their self esteem a bit trying it on sharing pics etc. The games that parents buy to keep the kids happy for a day may just save them from despair. Something that may seem non-essential to you could be supporting someones well-being. Also, many businesses will need to keep ticking over just to survive when we eventually get back to normal.

Just think, the price of old bottles of Nouvelle Fizz might collapse... The impacts on society are frightening.
