Your pandemic purchases, rated

There are chair socks. You read that right.

Yes, the pandemic is still going on. Yes, we're back for our third edition of rating your shocking purchases throughout. You'll be pleased to know we're seeing some shifting in the standard of spending. Don’t get us wrong things are still weird. To say the least. But some of you seem to be finding the light. Even if it is in a really sad Covid-style cake candle.

Let's go.

A HOUSE

Ok, so not a house. But loads of good things here. One: huge manifestation. Two: felt happy for a second. Three: you got Sushi, which is nowhere near a bad pandemic purchase. 8/10 all round.

Lol fooled us. Next year yeah. Set up a budget?

SOCKS FOR CHAIRS

Hate that we don’t hate them? Saving the floor. Could be used as adorable coin purses for all the money you save on not having to save your floor. Never seen before. 8.5/10

COVID CAKE

A true attack by 2020. Open flame near mask. Both sad and cute. 5/10.

STUFFED ANIMALS AT 33

We all want a bit of comfort right now, sure. But this is actually just terrifying. Think it’s the whiskers. Chop them off and we’ll see you next time. 3/10.

A MISSED OPPORTUNITY



If we’re not all setting up an inflatable bubble budget right now, what ARE we doing? Go on, you’re excused. 10/10.

How to Keep Your Bank Balance at a Non-Panic Inducing Level

You know what sucks? When you really want to buy that new jacket but your bank balance tells you it’s a bad idea. You know what sucks even more? When rent is around the corner and you’re not sure if your bank balance is even going to cut it this time around. Wouldn’t it be nice if there was just like, infinite money in there? We’d have to rework the whole capitalist society thing and our big unfortunately misplaced sense of purpose, but it’d probably be great in the end. The point is, life is better when you’re not worried about your bank balance. But how do you get your sh*t together enough to literally not have to think about it? With Cleo. Here’s how to keep your bills in check and maybe even manage a treat-yourself budget too. Tips incoming.
