Your New Boots Sir

It has been revealed that the MoD spent £714.18 getting a pair of non-urgent boots to a soldier in Northern Ireland. 

See http://news.uk.msn.com/uk/%C2%A3700-bill-to-deliver-soldier-boots

A bit steep really.  Surely it would have been cheaper to fly a civil servant to Ulster and deliver them by hand!  At least the MoD can account for them unlike the £6Billion of unaccounted for kit!

I wonder what other gems of procurement are waiting to be exposed?
