I like shopping.
This is probably the understatement of the century. However I also like having money in my bank account so I’ve been taking some measure to try and curtail my spending. I decided to put the credit cards away and stick to a cash only system for a while. I’ve been doing well so far (well, technically I have 2 dollars in my wallet right now, but I don’t foresee any spending between now and Monday so I mark it down as a Win).
Due to this new non-plastic purchasing plan I’ve had to force myself to not buy “things.”
Like the slanket.
(Dammit Jamie! I want one too!)
Or a new coat.
Or Ani Difranco tickets.
Or the Sex and the City Movie (I know! Travesty that it has taken me so long!
Or shoes. (This pains me the most)
Or a LIT. (This may be a tie with shoes)
Or a slew of other items that tickle my fancy on a daily basis. And it’s ok, really. I know if I still want them later, I’ll buy them. Once I get back on my financial feet (a 700ish dollar spring break bill knocked my finances to their hypothetical knees), I’ll be less stressed out.
And more able to replace that Immaculate Collection CD I can’t seem to find.
