I could keep going, but I've had enough drama in the forums today. Not saying that this is drama, but I'm feeling a bit drained and beat up in the opinions department today. I can't even discuss my point anymore. I need to sleep and refresh myself.

But I set a goal for myself (Damier Speedy) and I'm determined not to buy anything that's not absolutely necessary in the meantime JUST to keep myself from compulsive spending. With determination I think I will make it.

Damier Speedy is a great goal, and totally worth saving for. When you finally get there, you will love it!

Ditto! I also REALLY want a Damier Speedy, and it's my goal to save up for it...so I've been giving tours and interviews like crazy to earn a little extra cash to put towards it. I even printed out a picture of it and stuck it in my wallet over my ID, so whenever I open my wallet, I'm reminded of it and how I REALLY want to SAVE for it! :yes:

I'll be honest and say that a forum like this really feeds in my tendency for compulsive behavior. Prior to this forum I was addicted and spent alot of time on cosmetic forums. Now I don't visit them at all (though I have purchased enough cosmetics in the last 4 years to last the rest of my life). So I have replaced one addiction to another.

I have just bought what I hope will be my last handbag for the rest of this year. If it means blocking myself from this forum in order to accomplish that - I will. The more I come here, the more I find new things to want. Peggy

If it makes you feel better I thought all your comments were spot on...and well stated.

^If they were made in regards to people with serious addictions yes. It is decent advice.

But for a 'just for fun' thread.. I have no idea what that has to do with anything :shrugs:

hey sparkles!!! I have some questions I need answering, everybody's got me influenced into buying mini skinnys and wristlets now!!! and that nylon hobo which I am determined to get. I love nylon...I can't screw it up.

I control my habit by having no money. That always works pretty well. If I can't pay in cash, I don't buy at all. I only have two designer bags, a Trina Turk that is pretty much used exclusively for going out and a coach hamptons tote...getting a coach hamptons hobo...in black nylon (just like my tote, I am so bad).

Plus I don't like signature stuff so that elminates a lot of crap for me.

But I am addicted in the sense that I always say I'm going to save up for a new digital camera, phone (just did that one), or an mp3 player and never do. I buy clothes, shoes, or accessories. *sigh*.

^ Hey missmk!! I didn't know you were on PF!! Yay now I can get revenge on you all for getting me addicted to Sevens muhahah :devil: :laugh: With so many pretty bags to look at here who knows what could happen :whistle:

And yeah buying cash is a GREAT way of limiting yourself...once you visually see how much money you're forking over it's like :wtf: With credit cards it's easy to forget how much money you're spending LOL
