OK, you walk into this huge QS, I mean beautiful fabs everywhere! Batiks to take your breath, Calicos to take you back to days of yester year. Sparkling jewel tones to feast upon, just everything more beautiful and wonderous than you've ever laid eyes on:shock: ...AND you came in there for an important piece of fabric you neeeeeded! What would you do? Go ahead and get what you need :cry:or throw caution to the wind and shop, look, explore and get a few beauties to take home for yourself!! :XD:
I know what I would do!! What would you do, how would you spend your $30.00!??

I would only get what I needed because if I didn't then I would regret it. $30.00 bucks isn't easy to come by in my house hold.

I have learned I only get what I need. I went in with a particular fabric in mind, if I find it that day, fine, if not, save money for another day when I will find it.
In todays economy, I cannot afford to be willy-nilly with my money. Besides, why have more fabric sitting around that I will probably never get around to using? Fondle, ooo and ahh over the fabric, and leave it be. Not worth the hassle.

If I went in specifically for something I would have to get that....but I might have to make a fast trip back for other goodies.

My $30.00 and so much more would go to buy fabric and thread.

I'd get what I needed and thats it. But, would make mental notes of things I'd like to get later.
