I used to do a lot of online recreational shopping. I stopped cold turkey in May and never looked back. I honestly don’t miss it, and the savings are great.

Maybe we should try to balance each other out. When I’m stressed I don’t even want to go to the grocery store. Unless of course, someone else is staying home with the three kidlets. Then I’m happy to go anywhere!

Ha! Me too! I've been known to prowl the stores and touch every piece of fabric, every boot heel, every button or scrap of lace that I find even moderately appealing and say, "Soon, Precious. Soon, I'll take you home with me." Until I get the money in my hand and then I doubt all of my previous convictions. Issues. As you say. MadFab´s last blog post..Retail Therapy

For real! I’m not sure what goes on in my head. Maybe I’m trying to fool myself “Hey, I can’t be broke, because I’m spending money!”

Of course, when I have money, I don’t want to spend it, until something happens and I have to part with some, then it’s like oh, why not just buy everything since I no longer have a nice round sum.

My friend, we have issues.

But totally send a pic of the new haircut!

I've noticed that the tighter my budget, the greater my desire to go buy something pretty. That's not healthy. And the anxiety I feel about the lack of balance is responsible for the new haircut I'll be getting today. The expensive haircut. MadFab´s last blog post..Retail Therapy

I know that feeling too well. There are times when it honestly feels like a need to me to go out and buy something. Not get something, BUY something. It's worse than a nic fit! Tracy´s last blog post..Photo of the Day
