Looking but not buying

[Philagoofy]

Are there certain items you always gravitate to when at the store. You don't need it, you're not there to buy it but you always have to look anyway.

For me it'd be wallets & pocketbooks. I like things with little compartments & drawers, so I like looking at boxes & desks also. I'll be looking at a wallet & my dh will want to buy it for me but I don't need it, I just love looking at them. No, I'm not expecting to find any of those nice little green papers in there.

Scrapbook merchandise! I have yet to actually start one but I have been buying stuff to make scrapbooks, especially Disney related for years.

One of these days..........

 

[ChrisnSteph]

Picture frames. I always gravitate toward that section in a store, but rarely buy any.

 

[Hercules10]

Anything in the tool section. Even if I got it, I want another. Tool junkie.

 

[momof3disneyholics]

I always look at toys when I am in the store, even if the kids aren't with me.

 

[AprilShowers]

Furniture! I love to see what the new trends are, but we had the same living room furniture for almost 15 years! I got new a year ago, and it's beautiful, but I still look

 

[DisneyAddict_M]

DVDs. I collect them so I always check to see if there's any good movies on sale.

 

[Chuck S]

Electronics. I like to see what's new, even though most of the new stuff would be of no value to me at all.

Campers I'm an RV-wannabe. On Saturdays DH & I hit the camper dealers. We go inside, lay on the beds, sit at the tables, inspect the potties Mostly we dream of the day when we can just hit the road...

Ack! last Friday we went out looking on a cold winter day and they made us an offer we couldn't refuse. We now own a brand new travel trailer

Computers

Nintendo games
DVD's

Hmm, I think I see a pattern here.

Ooooh! Campers! We entered the world of travel-trailer camping two years ago. We've had a BLAST! Enjoy your new toy!!!!!

You wouldn't believe the amount of craft stuff I have. I've been into rubber stamping for several years now & have so many little things, embellisments, etc. I forget what I have and when I start cleaning it out or go looking for something it's like I'm shopping again. "Oh yeah, I forgot I had that, ohh neat, can't wait to use it". Then back in the closet it goes, only to see the light of day several months from now.

And I keep buying more, can't have too many craft items.

You know they have scrapbook conventions. I've been to rubber stamp conventions, lots of good samples, ideas & things to buy. Probably the same at the scrapbook conventions.

DVD's and books. But I usually end up buying them.

But the thing that makes me drool are power tools. Whenever we're in Home Depot, I have to look at 'em. I keep dreaming of the day we live in a house so I can buy them. A whole ton of them. Joe just sighs and yells me at me when he's done paying for something at the register.

careful, they become an obsession once you start purchasing them,


just ask the frog who owns 4 circular saws, 6 cordless drills, 5 corded drills, 4 jig saws, two routers, two reciprocating saws, 8 or 9 sanders, a powered mitre saw, two table saws, two air compressors, two finishing nailers, 400 ft of air hose, two shop vacs, a wood lathe, over 500 ft of extension cords and 5 large crates of various hand tools

DVD's... I'm always searching for Taxi Driver to be on sale for some price under $20. Not to happen in my lifetime, I guess.

Books... I have a few non-fiction topics that I am interested in and I am always looking for the newest addition to my collection. But books are so darn expensive...

 

[Microcell]

Oh yeah, we buy a tool for every project we have. Most recently a whet saw for tiling, power washer for painting the house, countless diamond bits for the five drills DH has to have. Miter saw for the wood projects and crown moulding DH wants to put up. I am a girl, I shouldn't know all these names!!!

I drew the line at scaffolding. We rented that.

 

[Catananche]

Cashmere. Have to stroke it. Cashmere cardigans have strange and powerful gravitational pull......

[UrsulasShadow]

Yeah, RV's and real estate. Can't resist looking.
Furniture is WAY up there, too.

 

[Disneydreaming6]

Shoes.... I love to buy shoes, I just hate wearing them.
Furniture... dreaming of the day I get a new living room set, so when that time comes, I will know exactly what I don't want.
Dvc... I always look into it, haven't been able to convince dh
Power tools. One of my favorites. I buy them for dh, knowing he has no idea what to do with them.
Rings... I just love vintage rings.
