Damn you steam sales.
I didn't spend that much, but as I have no income at all for now, every penny counts.

I've just spend nearly $65 on stickers (only six of them too)...
STICKERS. Gosh. Dang. It

I allowed myself only $20 to buy stickers
Then it escalated quickly to $65...

I'm trying to get over my stupidity and remorse by telling myself that these six stickers are custom made and the designs are from a game franchise that I love to death.

Doesn't help that I'm in university too, and on a tight budget as well.
.........
I've got to block ebay and amazon on my computer. It has come down to this now... So pathetic.

I mostly spend too much on food. Our grocery run is down biweekly and I've been banned from that recently. It's not my fault the market we go too appeals to my every needs. They have a dollar bin which is pretty evil because no one in their right mind stops at a dollar. </3

Baby clothes do me in as well. Such a waste since they grow so damn fast. I spent $350 last time I went clothes shopping and none of that was spent on clothes for myself. :'( why are baby clothes so cute??

I have to thank you again. It's been a while since I've had this much d**k on my computer. :'3

Hmmm, on my last birthday (December), I thought that I would buy myself a present, which is a new phone,
But when I saw this New released tablet of Samsung, Galaxy note 10.1 2014 edition, I just had to buy it, hell with the phone 🤣 , I‘d rather have this, much better at everything,
I know, I already have a tablet, but this one‘s newer and better..
Only downside is, I now need to bring a bag wherever I go...

Internet connection is not a problem for me, I always have one wherever I go (or atleast inside the country), and I could even share it to you via ‘Portable Wi-fi hotspot(but I‘d rather not, it consumes my battery)
Yey for technology..

So I wanted to get a lip scrub. It was midnight, and the only place open I could check was Walmart. So I take a midnight trip there. Looking, picking things up, still looking, picking more things up. Couldn't find it, and spent $26. Not that much right? Except I go to CVS next to look for a lip scrub. Looking, picking things up, looking. Couldn't find it, but spent $38. This morning I go to Target because I know they have one there. Found it, cost $3, but I end up looking around more for things I don't need. I ended up spending $44 there ....

I just wanted to get a lip scrub that only cost me 3 dollars, and ended up spending a bit over $100 on beauty products. T^T (Considering I have enough, I really don't need more makeup, and hair products. Especially considering how rarely I use them ... )
*My husband is going to kill me for this little spree 🤢 ... *

This was about 5 years back. We had just got a new internet connection at my home, and my brother and I were ecstatic because it was supposed to be an unlimited package at a fixed cost. We went crazy with the internet that month because we assumed the extra mb(s) were free. Well, turned out they were not. We got an internet bill of about rs.20000 (=$400 at that time) for that month. God, were we shocked! 😲 I have been extra careful ever since.

Earlier, afternoon...

I went to a shoe shop to pick-up the item (without an S) that I ordered last Tuesday...

Came out with the shoe (Merrell, not that costly imo) and a jacket (Converse, not that costly too)... Plus a Recipe for another order; of another shoe, another jacket, plus a sweatshirt (3 items, Converse brand)....

Sigh
It's just that, I've been meaning to buy a new pair of shoe, but I don't really like spending too much money, so I postponed it for months,
My problem is, when I start buying, I just can't stop and always overdo it..

Next stop for next month, Nike store, for another shoe (and maybe, jacket).. lol..
