Same here, parked the car in the last spot available, hardly, front left wheel was on the sidewalk, maximum! Did a rush through the stores, got back 25 minutes later, got a parking ticket of 45 euro.
I buy almost anything online:
-computer parts, all of them
-I buy from recommended online stores, price checking through tweakers' pricewatch to find the cheapest, or near cheapest seller, posting may differ.
-Ebay, but less because I got near dead/dead items 3 times now. It's a nice place to buy small things, like converters, usb casings for my harddisks, usb-floppy drive, things you won't find easy elsewhere, or never at the prices seen there.
-Christmas is not big here, at least in my family, the present giving thing about it. We just had Sinterklaas, (americans made Santa Claus from it), celebrated at 5th of December. It's more a children's thing, and their past year's behaviour is rewarded, or not. Not is unlikely, we don't wanna cause trauma, right?
-I would love to buy more music online, will use ebay for that too. A new cd here is 20 euro, on amazon or ebay 10 dollar! So real cd's, not drm restricted downloads for money.
