Do I spend it on clearance fabric, or do I wait and get something I really, really want (like the batiks, but only if they go on sale)?? He thinks it's pretty funny, and says he would have done this a long time ago if he knew it would make me quit buying fabric!

How funny...I don't have a gift certificate, just a very limited income. Everytime there's a sale I just drool over them but never buy. I fill carts with my wish list and when I see the total delete the entire cart. This way I sort of feel like I went shopping except my check book still has money in it.

This is my form of creative window shopping...some day I'll actually buy the things I just dream over today.
