Man Accidentally Buys 1,000 Hens Online

Nothing gets the adrenaline flowing like online bidding, especially when the words "urgent sale" appear in the listing. Unfortunately for one man in New Zealand, he wound up buying more than he bargained. Originally, Steve Morrow thought he was purchasing one hen off the Trade Me site. But at the end of the auction, it turned out he would be receiving 1,000. "Holy moly, I was stunned, I can tell you that," claims Morrow, who only paid $1.50NZD ($.97 USD). Admitting the "wording was confusing," Morrow said he'll keep 20 of the birds while trying to get the rest rehomed. So far he's found interest for around 700. What's the craziest impulse purchase you've made online?
