If you had £60 to spend at Amazon what would you buy?

It's my birthday at the weekend, and my folks have said I can have anything on Amazon up to the value of £60, and I have to tell them by tomorrow. I'm really crap at thinking of what I want/need though (I prefer surprises), so just wondering what other people would go for?

I'm a bit old fashioned so didn't realise it sold things other than books, DVDs and CDs! :smile:

Potassium Nitrate. I'd then add some sugar and water to it, boil it for 60 minutes then let it cool. Once cooled, store for later use.

Grats, you just made some rocket fuel or a smoke bomb.

Afro Samurai wall art. I'd need another £15ish though.

Yup, books!

Bit of an odd idea, but mix that same potassium nitrate with charcoal and sulphur to make gunpowder :colone:

Alot of books, music..no actually that's basically all I buy there :-O

Do your folks know you can get gift certificates from Amazon? You just print them out, maybe they should do that so you can think about it in your own time :smile:

As many books on Blackjack strategy and card counting as you can get for $60.
If mastered and used you will see a return on your parents investment many times over - a gift that will truly last you a lifetime.

Is that including postage costs?

I have an Amazon wishlist - all books - so I'd spend it on getting some of that.

As I learnt from The Apprentice this week, reinvest!

Put the money into funding your education, buy loads of books on how to make money, soon you'll have a coupla mil to spend and you can buy me this:

Books, loaaads of them, every kind. But it really has to be from Amazon? Because there are really cool birthday gifts here :tongue:
