It looks like Lazarus and Lorenzo gave it a thumbs up so it must be good. I'm just adding the inverted ¿ for you. - Yeser007, Jan 15, 2011

If a question ask for a person, the correct answer should provide this information. This is one of those cases where the pronoun "yo" cannot be omitted.

"Yo las compré" sounds a bit assertive, which is fine if you say it with a certain emphasis or in a challenging manner.

"Yo" is the simplest and more natural answer, but "Las compré yo" is also very common.
