Yep that's me, delete quickly before I have the chance to view what is on sale.

It is sad though. But financially, it will have to wait awhile.

I wish I could do that ... but can't ... can't even finish projects I've started ... but I am blessed to be alive and well :)

This is going to sound strange but I was put on a new medicine that helped me stay awake, Nuvigil. It is like a speed. I run around & get a whole lot of nothing done but I found I did spend so much more money on internet than I had before I started taking this med! So I am trying to curb my buying while 'under the influence". DH doesn't really complain tho. I'm pretty good compared to some of the wives the guys he works with are. I've heard of them having a charge card & running it up to $10-20,000. I won't use a charge card thank goodness!

I can't help. I do the same thing!

I fully understand. I haven't ordered any fabric for about 10 days now. Everything I've ordered is in. I keep telling myself, you don't need any more fabric. But, I keep looking.....My New Years Resolution is to use up what I have. So can I place just one more order???????

I fill my cart then leave the site with the satisfaction of shopping but not paying!! I finally had to hide my card for a few days to keep me honest!

go into your sewing room, and pretend you are at a shop and buy buy buy, you will be surprised what you find in your shop that you forgot about

Have fun!

I do this too! I have lots of fabric that isn't getting used yet. I really don't need more!

I do fantasy orders and have the thrill of shopping on line for all the pretty fabrics and threads. I empty my cart and save a ton of money.

I was even worse...Fabric.com had a great sale and my total was $143 after coupon. Santa, I can explain...fabric prices are going up and I know that I'll never see such good prices again. Think that will work?
