I have spent $550 on clothes in the past two days.

$120 jacket.
$40 jacket.

$20 shirts x6

$50, 2 for 1 fitteds

$40, pair of jeans

$150, PAIR OF SUNGLASSES.

That adds up to $510 but I haven't included exact dollar figures. There are a loose few dollars in there that bring it up to $550.

Bye bye, paycheck :happysad:

Edit: I forgot to mention. I decided that I am going to buy whatever I want this month, because I've saved a good amount of cash. I made that decision while under the influence (of several things), but I'm stickin to it! That includes christmas gifts for my family.

Edit 2: Supposed to be "ImpulSe Control!" Oh well.
 
;852576']Dude, I just have to ask:

Why a $150.00 pair of shades? You could have gotten 2 more pairs of jeans and a cheapass pair of sunglasses.

Expensive shades, cheap shades... all made in Taiwan!
 
I have bought fake sunglasses in the exact same style for a long time and they've all broken pretty fast. I figured I'd stop spending $10-$20 many times, and $150 one time. They have a warranty, at least.
 
At least you buy shit that can show for it. When get impulsive, I take my friends out to eat and go thrift store shopping for vintage ashtrays or candles. I have more ashtrays from the 60s and 70s than I fucking know what to do with.

I also go a little crazy buying books online. :happysad: alibris.com ftw!

I like to buy things and do things for people, a lot.

I need clothes SO very badly, but I never get around to buying those instead of shit that I don't need. Le sigh.
 
When I got my first paycheck at this waiter job I have, I went to Best Buy and incremented my geek-o-meter by a solid 50%.

Holy shit, I don't think I've ever bought so many video games in my life.
 
I worked in teh garden department at Home Depot. On paydays, I would come home with only $5 left on my check. I spent it ALL on plants and pots for them.
 
I wish I had $500 to blow on clothes; I have 2 pairs of jeans and 11 shirts.

But I told myself I wasn't going to get a large wardrobe; I have my prepregnancy wardrobe in the closet and I figured if I made myself only have a few things to wear I'd be more motivated to lose the weight to get back into my old clothes. I'm 25lbs away.
 
My weight doesn't change ever. Haha.

I just got paid today, the clothes, a tank of gas, and lunch today wiped it out. It's like two weeks of work never happened!

Edit: Thanks to the mod who fixed the title for me!
 
You shoulda just bought fireworks and pulled out the good ole line that made millions rich in Medieval Times...

"Stand and deliver!"

((For those of you who cut class, its what a highwayman says))

((For those of you who are stupid, a highwayman is a guy who robs you.))
