No more shopping for me! And this time I mean it!

[Spinning]

Ok after a fun time at the scrap flea market, then yesterdays all day crop and finally today, 40% my entire order at my LSS I am done! I have more than enough stuff for my SS you lucky duck! Plus I think I bought enough stuff for the next round too! With all the deals I got this week I couldn't help myself! So now I am not going to shop any more! My goal is till Dec! So what do you think?
Oh and did I tell you I bought new tackle box.......

And if I was a betting girl this would really last for how longggggggg

Only kidding. Here's hopping you kept that promise. Good LUCK!!

Good luck! I should be with you on no more shopping. I have been working on cleaning up my scrap area (former lr). There is so much STUFF in there that there is no room to work!!! I am in the middle of fall cleaning throughout the entire house and I am appalled at all the crap we have! We could support a third world country with just the extra things we have! Blame it on too many episodes of Clean Sweep, but I am in the PURGE mood! Both kids are in school and I'm walking the house with black trash bags (can't see through them so the kids don't know what I'm throwing out). I HAVE TO STAY OUT OF THE STORES!!!!!!!

Another bad thing for me is yard sales....such good deals to be had. I still have saturdays treasures on the kitchen table to be put away. Most are books and puzzles so not so bad. But in the scrap room I found PILES of stuff I had forgotten I had....stickers, papers, mm stuff, beads, charms,etc. Ridiculous.

I am taking a break now to rest my back but I will be back to purging soon.

I want to have things organized so I can actually scrap and stamp...hey, a girl can dream can't she????

Jill, I have the exact same problem! And I thought I was the only one with that addiction. I have a very organized craft room- at least sometimes If I quit shopping it would stay organized! I have to keep re-organizing to fit everything in!!! But I keep buying more, with good intensions.

Can I just tell you how much I am loving my new tackle box!?!?!? I almost have it loaded and it holds everything i wanted it to hold! I have all my tools in one spot, all my embellishments and fibers in this tote! LOVE IT! best $30 I have spent in a long time!
Now I want to go to one of those crops where they have people who decorate you totes!

thanks for the good laugh -
I needed it!



I give you til oh next weekd and you will be shocked that you need something so you will go to the store and right next to that thing you needed will be a NEW item and you will think I don't need that - but how can I justify it and you will take it home and be embarassed that you couldn't resist - then you will log onto the dis and we will all understand and give you a great big hug and say nice try -
lets start that again-
til next time!

COme on guys! Help me here! I really want to be good....I am really going to try...YOu have to understand I have been shopping like mad! All these deals...sales upon sales...I am fully stocked with stuff I don't even know what to do with or how to use it!

BUt did you hear Michael's has a new slab....no wait I heard nothing I know nothing....I saw a coupon....no wait I put the papers in recycling alread......

I doubt if I can make it till Dec. But I am goign to try! One thing I did realize it had been almost 2 months since I was at my favorite LSS...So I think I might be ok for a little while!

 

[pattyT]

I have the coupon too...
I actually have TWO coupons!


BUT YOU CAN DO IT!
YES YOU CAN!

just make sure you have enough of the basics -
adhesive, refill pages, etc...
that is where you get in trouble when you run out of that and HAVE to go to the store for them! Then you get all those extras!
