10295 - Porsche 911
This is my first purchase through the nectar rewards scheme, which means for all purchase on Lego I get a minimum 1% return, this actual purchase was part of a triple points scheme on the nectar site so 3% and a double VIP points from Lego, so effectively the £120 invested in this set has gained £12 of rewards from Lego which can be reinvested and get more of a return, £3.60 from nectar to spend and £20 worth of Lego merchandise to sell. so of the £120 spent I have got back £35.60 which is around 30% of the money spent. Which leaves room for the rewards to increase in value and the set itself to gain value.
In the the future all purchases will be made through the nectar portal to gain the 1% it is money which can be spent on shopping, so although not physical money, it will save me spending my money on the shopping but use what I have built up.

10281 - Bonsai Tree Botanical collection
This is the first of my investments where have bought it but actually built it. This and the flower bouquet were both bought with the intention of building them for one simple reason. Our house seems to be very dark and any house plant rarely survives, so what better than having Lego flowers. The tree is now pride of place on a shelving unit, the flowers I have held back until I can find a Lego vase for them.

Free item 30557 - dots photo holder cube
The first of the free items, and although in a previous job I had a boss that never liked me to say free, it was something without charge, but in this instance it is easier to say free. But they do have a value, and according to Lego it is £3.49 so having made the purchase I did I got this for free/without charge.
10280 Flower bouquet - Botanical collection
This was a purchase based on the fact that in our house no house plants seem to survive, as we are just not able to get enough light into the property. This set was bought along side the Bonsai Tree set, which I have built.
Once I had built the bonsai tree, I thought as nice as it is and without a Lego vase I thought the set would be better left in it's box for the time being. It also doesn't seem to have sold as many as the tree so could have it's own rarity value.
