Your Recent Purchases

**Samantha Puppy** · 08-30-2006, 02:19 PM

Wow, Donna. That was completely uncalled for. Your intention may have been to sound like a responsible adult, but all you came across was bitter.

My recent purchases? Mostly diapers, baby food, formula and bills. But I guess I handle my money well enough that I also managed to get a new outfit to wear to my 10 year high school reunion this Saturday. (10 years?

) I also plan on getting some hair dye at Target tomorrow so everyone there can recognize me (I'm blond right now, naturally a dark brown).

Thanks Sarah - Yep, Ki has about 4 flippys from Wal-Mart. This is one I've been wanting to get her for a while. It's a lot more durable and will last longer for sure.

I was so excited that I finally bought something nice for myself (the purse), sorry someone had to be a kill-joy. I usually go shopping and end up putting half of my cart back by the time I got to check out. However, this is one thing my cousin wouldn't let me put back and I actually bought it. Everything else I had picked out was for the dogs or someone else.

That makes sense, Ki seems to use her flippys a lot more than my dogs do

Mine just fetch them from the pool, otherwise they could care less about them.

I do the same thing at stores. I don't hesitate to buy things for my dogs when I know they'll enjoy them but I always hesitate for myself. I always worry that I won't get my money's worth, and then I think about how long I had to work in order to be able to afford it, and I end up putting it back

I especially do that with clothes.

Kay, you really don't need to justify anything. It's apparent that you have a good handle on your finances so that you were able to spend a little bit of money on yourself. Good for you.

I recently won a $50 gift card for Meijer, so I can do some serious shopping now!!

I guess it's alot more difficult to splurge when you live alone and have the responsibilities of rent, car payments etc., as opposed to living at home rent free with Daddy and being able to buy extravagant things. Must be nice.

Wooooow

And if you look in this thread she's not the only one 'splurging'

Why choose her out of the other 20 people?? Totally uncalled for in my opinion. If you have something against Kay (or somebody else!) you could always talk it out in a PM and not be totally disrespectul and ruin a fun thread. Just my .02.

I am buying some things. Too bad they are all for others, things I NEED, or for an unfortunate event.

Yesterday I spent $100 in vet bills for Nanook.

Tonight I am getting a new to me (used) freezer, although it is not for me per say, it's to store the dog's food in. It's a smaller one, not exactly sure but it is about 4 cubic feet I guess. It's only $35 but I'm going to see if I can get it for $25 as it is not self defrost and they have to have it out of there by tonight and I am the ONLY person who is interested in it. As long as it works I'm getting it.
In a way this has already paid for itself because of all the free meat I have gotten in the past & will continue to get in the future.

I am also pitching in some money for some flowers for my grandmother, who has advanced alzheimers. The doctors gave her about a week left to live, this was 2 days ago.

I just spent $85 today on new front brakes & rotors for my car as well as some stabalizer thing for one of my front tires. The pads are under warranty so when I return the ones that are on my car I will use that money for the back brakes.

Next week or the week after I'm getting 2 new back tires for my car.

My van is up for sale

once it sells I am splurging, I am getting myself a hair trim and a new pair of sneakers. Haven't had either in a year or more.

I am also going to get my sewing machine repaired. The rest of the money is going to bills, food, vet bills and house repairs.

I'm sorry Donna, but I agree with the others. I can NOT afford anything extra either yet I kept my mouth shut because of 2 reasons. #1Other peoples lives are just that, none of my business, and I am not going to just assume things either. And #2, this is a fun thread.

Lol, Sarah, we have the same mindset when shopping. And generally I refuse to buy it unless it's on sale. If it doesn't have clearance, reduced, etc. on it it's generally not in my cart.

Today I am buying a tile cleaning machine for my grandmother for her birthday. It's around $160 but myself, my cousin, and my parents are splitting the price between us.

Sue, I'm so sorry about your recent happenings. {{HUGS}} to you and your family.

I forgot that I purchased new collars for my babies.

This one for Luka

This one for Mandy

This one for Nova

And this one for Buck

They all came from 3 Dirty Dawgz. They were shipped yesterday, I can't wait until they get here!

Love those collars! Where on the website is the turtle one? I may have to look into getting that one! I showed it to my mom (obsessed with turtles) and she loves it, and many others on the site. Nevermind! I found it. So many cute ones in the summer collection!

**.sarah** · 08-30-2006, 03:10 PM

I know, I had a really hard time choosing! I've been wanting to order from them for months but couldn't make up my mind

I'll probably end up ordering more later.

Sarah, I love those collars! I think I'll have to splurge and get a couple for my two.
