I usually buy things to last which means a shock when it comes to replacing them. I've just treated myself to a new duvet, well 2 actually, summer plus spring/autumn equals winter. They cost me the same as I paid for one about 30 years ago, so I'm feeling a bit chuffed. I know back then duvets were a luxury item, and not many people had them.
I can think of another - computers, I bought my first one about 20 years ago for about £1000. That was before the days of internet and all the extras that are included now.
Now I'm waiting for the all singing, dancing TV's to come down in price before we go digital, and preferably before the current one packs up.
So, what pleasant surprises have you come across?
