I went a little crazy at the Pawn Shop last night, they had a 30% off "Moonlight Madness" sale (doors open @ 8PM, closes @ Midnight).
Sooo ...
I bought a ceramic heater, 120V 1500W. For $C 11.00 [$US 8.35] Not very exciting but handy.
Slightly more exciting ... an AKG C1000S (latest revision) small-diaphram condenser microphone. $C 48.00 [$US 36.50]
And not audio-related, but I'm pretty pumped about it because I have some work to do on my Miata, a TIG / Stick welder with Plasma cutter. 120V 20A or 240V 30A $230.00 [$US 175.00]
