Well hardware shops i man shop. Go in with my blinkers on and buy what i set out for regardless of price. But toy shops, i dont go there for myself, but i went in to a hobby shop today loosely looking for a christmas gift for my son. Dont get me wrong, he will be absolutely chuffed with what i got him, but i was looking at stuff which the kid would be happy with then it snowballed from there and i got him a sweet piece of kit. Then to go hand in hand with that, spent another 100 on batteries. I sort of am a loose cannon when it comes to things i didnt have as a kid for my kid, im a nazi when it comes to behaviour and table manors, but other then that my kid is more a mate then a burdon.
