Shop Till You Drop! Yeah. I know you're not supposed to shop online using company resources. But, if you're going to do it, you may as well save some money.

Andrea, bought any toasters latey?

Cause I just had a very weak moment and bought a Fendi Zucchino chocolate brown "mama" bag with brass hardware.



You're the only one who could understand this addiction.

I don't know what I'm going to do with a Fendi bag. They're hard to pull off when you entire outfit costs less than the bag. But... I just couldn't help myself.

I'm biting my knuckles here. A non-canal street special bag. One with a real live serial number One with an authenticity card.

I actually found a good price on them and bought three.

I plan to sell the other two to raise money for my walk.

Still...

Another freaking purse...

I am so weak.

Tell me you bought twenty Williams-Sonoma toasters this week. The four slotted steel colored ones.

That's what it's going to look like, only the fabric and the leather is chocolate colored with very slightly darker Fs.

Nope, no toasters. I've got a file of lamps I'm drooling over, though....and buying my lamps gives me the same thrill the purses are giving you. I don't know why I didn't think of this lamp thing sooner! I come home every night, turn on my lamps in the family room and just look at them. You can use multiple aquisitions at one time!

How many purses can you use it a one time? My thrill is nearly guilt free. Woo hoo!

The only reason I don't have more on the way at the moment is a little thing called money and the knowledge that eventually I'll fill up all of the rest of the rooms and then I won't be able to buy lamps guilt free anymore. (I've actually thought of that...pace myself. )

Enjoy your purses in good health, Margaret. And then, when you get your own house, try buying lamps

Andrea

brian_igo will become famous soon enough

No toasters (or purses) but if it makes you feel better I bought two new hard drives last night and will probably go back for a third on Friday. :o

I will admit, it is easier to match a hard drive with my shoes.

Ah, but can you bring a lamp to work with you? Can you bring a different lamp to dinner with you? Can you use a different lamp when you have formal functions to go to?

I didn't think so.

I think it's ironic -- the more expensive the bag, the more money it looks like you have. However, the more expensive the bag, the less money I really have LOL.

Margaret, who was up late last night worrying about the fact that I don't have the right color brown wallet

Note to self -- stick to black purses -- you already have a bazillion black wallets. You need to stop buying a new wallet just because you bought a new bag.

Margaret, who was pretty happy she made it a whole three months before purchasing a new bag

Yep, the chocolate brown checkbook wallet is calling my name

Why can't I get a good deal on one of those? I can't spend $300 on a wallet!!!

Hey duck,

Searching for a good price on the wallet I got side-tracked into this:

My bags came today!

They're bigger than I thought (good thing), and make my Coach look like a dwarf. They smell soooo good. The box is in the livingroom and the whole livingroom smells like leather.

My mom is jealous. She's thinking she's going to buy one for herself. My boss wants to see them too. She "can't afford" one right now, but, she just might be weak too. She bought a smaller one just to use for our company Christmas party, so who knows.

This was like Christmas. I wish there were high-end stores in my mall. I'd love to get a second job lusting after, I mean, selling luxury purses.

I was a little anxious that they'd be fakes, but, I've checked every bit of hardware, the leather, the serial number, and the authenticity card, and it's all legit. And I STUDIED this line and the fake versions of this line before I bought. Everything is right, right down to the screws that attach the buckle. Yay!!!
