What did you buy today?

Let’s face it most of us have a problem. I will not mention it by name. Being stuck at home between hunting seasons and a raging virus pandemic outside and nothing inside but tv, snacks, the internet, and a credit card is not helpful. I blew the rest of my emergency Clorox wipes and tp budget on an Alps Outdoors Big Bear X. Great deal on those at Lancaster by the way if anybody else is looking. They say admitting you have a problem is the first step. Towards what, I don’t know. But misery loves company so don’t let me go through this alone, what did you “acquire” today?
In the last two weeks I’ve purchased a new pack (tz2220) , a predator platform, 2 8.5ft Sterling Oplux ropes, two Kong duck ascenders, a set of 5 squirrel steps and ocb, treehopper treesuit platform...umm.. I think that’s it... maybe more but I can’t think of it at the moment
 
Pre-ordered some giant Miscanthus rhizomes to plant some screening on my property. Hopefully it’ll help keep the neighbor from scaring deer out of my field when he walks the fenceline out from hunting 15 minutes before the end of shooting hours.

Other than the color, I’m not sure I can tell a difference. I guess I’ll see if there’s a difference in durability.
 
I decided to test/build a Sterling Oplux line set from @DanO for linemen and tether. Great service & my first order thanks Dan.
(2) 10' lengths of Oplux
(2) 5' lengths 6mm TRC for Prusiks (might be a little long)
(2) Mini Kongs for Prusik tending (need to add paracord)

Picked up 100' of Oplux from R&W Rope for cheap (think it was like 20% off, came to $148); arriving by Fedex today. Also ordered a Critr2 for the Oplux to rappel after 1 stick (Shikar Mini ordered).

I am currently set up for SRT and DRT on 11.7 Poison Ivy, would like to figure it out with the Oplux
 
Just ordered a new Axcel Accuhunter single pin bow sight and got a 4x lens for it for 3D shooting. Never shot a lens so this will be interesting for me.
 
Bought $15 flat rate USPS shipping box to trade my Hill People Gear Umlindi pack for a Connor pack.
 
Today, I paid for another TX5 saddle ‍♂️ last week, over 200 ft of amsteel, lwcg minis, predator pack, pack rabbit straps, molle hydration pack attachment, braided shock cord, some additional bungee cord for Daisy chains, xacto knife, grip tape, glow in the dark bouncy balls, a Kong duck and a oval caribiner ‍♂️........ Don't tell the wife. But coronatine and being stuck at the house other than at work has driven me to boredom and excessive obsession about saddle hunting.
