I'm a pin addict?

[Laurajean1014]

Well, I'm hooked! It was bad enough that I found the boards just 3 short months ago and am over 1000 posts! But since I got back from DCL Magic, I have had to find every cool pin out there! I have about 60 pins ~ in just 3 months!

Dh loves me but pins are getting on his nerves......

Any words of advise?

My DH doesn't understand pins either. Luckily, my two sons understand me. So far, DH has tolerated my addiction. I told him it makes me happy and I get so much joy from my pins. I explained it's not the pins, it's the people......

Well, we live far from the parks so he didn't notice it much. I hide the LBE's before he got home. Now, with the DS pins, I'm going every Saturday morning.

Now he has noticed and the addiction. I'm trying to suck him into pin trading so that he will support my addiction. So far, he has not become an enabler. But, I'm still hoping.

Good Luck

Chris

Welcome to the world of pin addiction, fun, LBEs, and Disney spirit (excluding Sat mornings at SOME TDS). From one pinhead to another...ENJOY!

Athough I buy what I like, I can't help but see a pin I bought for $10 see on auction or retail for over $20 and feel like I hit lotto!

Some of these pins are so creative and nicely made, its a pleasure to collect them!

I display them on a Kilimenjaro Disney Vest. What does the rest of the addicts use??

A co-worker is leaving in a few weeks for a well deserved DCL vacation. She has never bought pins, but will buy some for me! I'm really looking forward to any pin she buys from DCL. I don't have any of those -- yet.
When I hit 100 pins, then it also hit me how much I had probably spent! Well, now I'm easily topping 500. I am still shocked how much I have spent in just over a year. After awhile you don't want to think about it!
DH has always been on the pin fringe and is being sucked in more now that TDS has pins. Which is good in some ways and bad others. -- The man who was telling me to cool it has reversed that statement and now buying Rex, Hamm and looking for Stinky Pete! Not to mention increased a few of my bids when I would have let them go. (But at least he increased the bids by just a hair. )
Good luck, welcome and happy trading/buying!


Ooohhhhh!!! And have a Wonderful B-Day! Hope you get all the pins you wish for today!
