I went through a phase in December where I was addicted to ebay. Yes, I really 'needed' that pink Prada cosmetic bag. Now, it's Amazon. Yesterday, I bought the Atkins book, South Beach book, the Baby Boom DVD (who doesn't love that movie?), and Working Girl (' I dance around in my underwear but that doesn't make me Madonna!').. Today, I just HAD to buy 2 ponchos--one pink, one black. It's like I forget that I have to pay for a wedding in a year!!!

Oh, do not look to me to stop you. My specialty is justifying ANY and ALL spending

Do what I did...cut your guest list down to 30.
More money to spend on eBay!
Hmmm...I'm not helping at all, am I?

Glad I have all you enablers! I blame Amazon though. They make it WAY too easy with that 1 click ordering.
Oh, and should I mention how I tried to be like that lady in the DSL commercials who pays all her bills in 60 secs? Except I was buying stuff on Amazon and checking out in 60 secs--okay 42 secs

I think the Baby Boom and Working Girl DVD's were a great investment. I think the scene where Diane Keaton has the breakdown at the vets office was priceless.

There is nothing wrong with an internet buying addiction..just last week I bought football tickets, baby shower gift and bid on a Coach watch that I should have won. Don't forget about the fendi bag, louis vitton bag or the prada bag I should have won, too!! Never too many bags and I can justify every last one of them!

OMG!!! This is what I did yesterday! I went on this whole diatribe to FH, 'I only need $2.04 for free shipping. And you KNOW they never have anything for $2.04. Just like when Clinique has their 'giveaway' if you spend over a certain amount and there's never 1 item that meets the quota' FH was looking at me like I was out of my mind. That's how I ended up with the DVDs--to get the free shipping!

I know what you mean - going to the mall is absolute torture. I want to make a list of all the things I want to buy after the wedding!

I 'accidentally' bid on things, so I hear ya sister! I 'accidentally' won a juicy couture terry dress for a measly $80! I didn't think I'd win, so FH says 'well, then why did you bid!'...he does have a point! It' an addicton!

I bought a TON of stuff when I first got hooked on ebay. Thank goodness it waned, though I went on a mini-spree for the first time a few weeks ago- Prince ticket and Han Solo and Princess Leia figures for our cake topper.

Re: Someone Stop Me!!
Okay, I just bought a subscription to US Weekly and spent $100 on ebay. I think studying for the bar has made me a shopoholic. Oh, and I'm sitting around in my pink PJs too. All I need are some Bon Bons (whatever happened to those?) and I'm Peggy Bundy.

I'm just worried about the look I'm going to get when all 6 deliveries come via UPS on the same day!! Good thing it's still 'my' money
