confession: needless splurge

[abmitch01]

I never thought I liked Vera Bradley until I heard about the sale on here. Liked the mod patterns and many of the styles. Bought a few. Then I started looking on Ebay for more and have bought way too much. Then I went to the salon that carries the onesole shoe tops and bought a few of them (I actually needed summer shoes so the tops serve that function), saw the Miche bags there and bought one and a few covers on Ebay.

I rarely buy myself stuff but this was stuff I really didn't need. I can afford it now, but I feel guilty for not saving the money. But I had so much fun bidding on Ebay and trying out the new bags. Guilt trip vs let myself enjoy it and just do better this month? kwim?

hmmm...it's already bought and paid for? not lingering on credit payments? if so,it's in the past,enjoy your stuff(even tho it's a lot)
if it's lingering payments,then let your guilt remind you to pay it off ASAP and don't buy any more till you can afford it.....

it fit into my monthly Discover card budget, I went easier on other areas and I always pay it in full

I think the purse thing is in lieu of clothes expenditures. I gained wt and hate my clothes and don't want to buy more. Purses are filling that void maybe.

yeah, you need something fun that you don't have to worry about fitting
