Your pandemic purchases, rated

Whether it’s a pair of those weird toe socks or a one-way ticket to a f*ckboy’s house, we all thought it was breakups that triggered our most ridiculous spending. Turns out, it’s isolation – here are some of your weirdest pandemic purchases, rated.

IN THIS ARTICLE:

WIGS

If you're at this point of chaos, shaving your head IS free and arguably higher in value. Seven seems excessive. Very irresponsible. 2/10.

BEER TAPS

Kegs of beer are cheaper than individual units and Todd said it himself, he is happy. Probably drunk, but happy nonetheless. Well done Todd. 8/10.

KIDS SLIDE

Providing and hoping that Louise has no kids and just needs something to fit in her living room: great exercise, good to start small, cheaper than an adult slide. 7/10.

SHOES

Ridiculous Luke. Had a word with Roast Mode and she’s waiting for you. 0/10.

CAT FOOD

Proof that genius and insanity sit closely together. Not sure which side we’re on here but a bit worried for both cat and Naima’s well-being. Relatively inexpensive for the deep emotional reward if all pans out well though. Tentative 5/10.
