As a follow-up to my post about the Euro 2016 Panini Stickers, I've now completed the collection with the help of an online swapping site and by buying the last 39 stickers directly from Panini. I also managed to write a new simulator, this time with additional collectors involved.

Sound the conspicuous consumption klaxon! 📣 I know it's foolish but I decided to collect the Panini stickers for the Euro 2016 tournament this summer. I think it's a more edifying waste of money than a series of group game accumulators that don't come off. If this week's long read in The Guardian is anything to go by, we really shouldn't be giving any more of our money to betting companies. The album also looks better than any of the official books. Anyway, this post celebrates my inner collector/geek and the beauty of the shiny sticker!
