Wine and Internet don't mix

I have just checked my email and sure enough I ordered a Nike+ Sportband last night along with some shorts and Tshirts.

I kind of knew I had, but was in denial. This is a gadget I want but do not need and have been resisting ordering. Having spotted one in stock last night the wine took over and the order button was placed.

Do others suffer from this affliction?

I've never impulse shopped under the influence but I did log into a religious chatroom one night with my guitar and a microphone and helped them to write a song

Love it. Should have tried that one. It would have been cheaper.

I try and stay off the computer if I have had a drink, too many things seem like a great idea at the time... but not so much the next day!

At least you bought something you can use, just don't go on ebay..... who knows what sort of tat you may end up bidding on

Ha Ha. I own a roundtuit plate and bendy man (like artists use). Both came from late night ebay sessions.

I never surf and drink - there's been many a time I've found myself ready to click the "buy" button for something I don't really need.

Not on the internet, but I had a moment yesterday and blew £300 on a wii console and guitar hero 3 I've been rocking away all day, but I still seem to be a Guitar Lamo rather than hero

Hehe, I really try to avoid my PC when I'm drunk.

A friend of mine got some "brownies" during his exchange semester in Amsterdam but he ate too much and was riding circles in WoW with his mount for 4 hours.

It must be my age or I'm particularly naive, but I don’t understand any of this post!
