I want these:
What do y'all think? Right now I am on a 10-day absolutely no spending ban (inspired by Natalie via Twitter), so of course I'm happening upon tons of things I want to buy. These shoes I have looked at before and loved, and told myself no, and now I have happened upon them again. I just really like them. And what I really like about them is that I would wear them in the winter with tights. I pretty much want to wear these shoes every day.
I guess I'll just have to hope they're still there when my spending ban is over. And plus, they're only $32, which I think is a pretty good deal, ok?
I also want to buy the new Death Cab album, which will also have to wait til the 10 days are over.
Do you sense a pattern here? Is it worth going on a spending ban if all I'm doing is collecting items on a list to buy when the ban is over?

I went on a spending ban for a week. I mean i still put gas in my car and bought toilet paper when we ran out. But I didn't go shopping or buy new nail polish or make up or go out to eat for the whole week. I ate at home or ate at my parents house. The result... I had $300 left over from the last pay period when I got paid yesterday. I normally live paycheck to paycheck. It's worth it.
Regarding the things you fall in love with (the fab shoes and the Death Cab CD), wait and then yes, get them! but doing the 10-day-no-spending thing will help you not splurge on little things that you may not really want later...does that make sense? :) And THOSE SHOES are fabulous! the studs, the leather, the platform wedge...perfect :)
and thanks for entering and being up for the pay it forward challenge! :)
